Topic : Shine Your Light.
Memory Verse :Isaiah 60:1. Arise, Jerusalem, and shine like the sun; The glory of the Lord is shining on you!
Bible Reading : Isaiah 60:2-4 GNB. Key Verse : v2.
Other nations will be covered by darkness, But on you the light of the Lord will shine; The brightness of his presence will be with you. Nations will be drawn to your light, And kings to the dawning of your new day. Look around you and see what is happening: Your people are gathering to come home! Your sons will come from far away; Your daughters will be carried like children.
In Isaiah 59, the word of God began to paint a picture of the consequences of sin as it affects our relationship with God. The matter was so serious that it became a force of limitation in what God intends to do for his people. The situation looked gloomy and hopeless as man wasn’t in the right position to help himself out of this ugly situation. God therefore in his love and mercy took it upon himself to deliver or redeem man from the shackles of sin, so that we can enjoy his presence, the blessings and the intervention that goes with it. ““The Redeemer will come to Zion, to those in Jacob who repent of their sins,” declares the Lord. “As for me, this is my covenant with them,” says the Lord. “My Spirit, who is on you, will not depart from you, and my words that I have put in your mouth will always be on your lips, on the lips of your children and on the lips of their descendants—from this time on and forever,” says the Lord.” Isaiah 59:20-21 NIV.
Now God in his loving kindness and mercy appeared on the scene to our rescue. He came through his son as light of the world, so that every darkness can disappear. He came as the way, so that through him we may return to the place of intimate fellowship with the father. Because of the work of redemption we are now the people of God, called out of the gross darkness (unrighteousness) covering the entire universe. ”Leaving Nazareth, he went and lived in Capernaum, which was by the lake in the area of Zebulun and Naphtali—to fulfill what was said through the prophet Isaiah:“Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles the people living in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned.” From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” Matthew 4:13-17 NIV.
If you are with Jesus, you must realise that you have been illuminated by his word and empowered by his Spirit. This means that you have what it takes to shine in the full strength and power of his light. The light of the world came to illuminate men; that is believers in him, so that you can become the light of God anywhere they find themselves around the universe. This means that it is God’s intention henceforth to illuminate the universe through his numerous sons around the world who are reflecting or manifesting the image and glory of his son who is the true light of the world. This new month and season, God is making your life to become an attraction because of the beauty and glory of his presence saturating your life daily. You are the city of God, a source of encouragement, an attraction and inspiration to many who are fainting. Your territory will be like Goshen that is separated from all forms of negativity and evil report. “So don’t hide your light! Let it shine brightly before others, so that the commendable things you do will shine as light upon them, and then they will give their praise to your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:16.
Prayer : Thank you Jesus for coming to the earth to redeem and transform my life. Thank you for bringing me into your light and life. Thank you for making me the light of my generation. Let this understanding lead in the paths of glory till I see your face in Jesus wonderful name Amen 🙏🏿.
