What does Jesus have to say about this?

“This is the kind of fast day I’m after:
 to break the chains of injustice,
 get rid of exploitation in the workplace,
 free the oppressed,
 
 cancel debts.
” 
      Isaiah 58:6 (The Message) 

“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, 
 because he has anointed me 
to proclaim good news to the poor.  
  He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners 
  and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, 
  to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
      Luke 4:18-19 (Today’s New International Version)

We are praying and asking Jesus how to respond, using as a guide for praying and learning more the Voice for the Voiceless 30 days of Prayer booklet.
