{A Prophetic Message for today’s time}
Isaiah 60:1-3 :1
Arise, shine for your light is come, and the
glory of the Lord is risen
upon thee.:
2 For, behold the darkness shall cover
the earth, and gross darkness the people:
but
the Lord shall arise upon thee, and
his glory
shall be seen upon thee.
:3 And the Gentiles (sinners) shall come to thy light, and
kings to the brightness of
thy rising
A: The Glory of the Lord shall arise upon the
people of God.
1: We do not have our own light but the Lord
shall shine upon of us.
Genesis 1:14–19:
‘14
And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the
day from
the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days,
and years:
‘15
And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the
earth: and it was so.
‘16
And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser
light to rule the night: he made the stars also
…
B:
1: The sun is energy and is light and rules
by day.
In the sixties man landed on the moon and
said” One small step for man, one giant
leap for mankind”
Man landed on the moon but no attempts to
date have been made to land on the sun
because the sun is energy which is light
which produces heat.
2: On the other hand, the moon which rules by
night, does not produce its own
light, it only reflects the light of the sun.
3: Even as the moon reflects the light
of the sun, we as Christian are to reflect the
light of the SON.
ST
John 9:4-5 Jesus said
:4 I must work the works of him that sent me while it is day: the night cometh
when no man can work.
:5 As long as I am in the world,
I am the ight of the world
The world was full of darkness (sin) until the light (Jesus) came
Jesus said as long as he was in the world
in the flesh, he was the light of the world
Jesus
was to be in earthly ministry only
about 3 ½ years and there were still
some thousands of years for the world to
stand as we know it.
Would there be no more light after Jesus? The light must continue to shine bright
until the return of Jesus.
Matthew
5:14-16 ye are the light
:14
Ye are the light of the world,
a city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.
: 15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick;
and it giveth light unto all that are in
the house.
: 16 Let your light so shine before men,
that they may see your good works, and
glorify your father which is in Heaven.
It is very important that we as believers be
aware of who we are in Christ.
God has called us out of darkness into this
marvelous light to reflect the light of his
Son Jesus in the world.
It is not our light but we only reflect the
glorious light of Jesus Christ.
Matthew 23:37
Jesus said to the
people.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou
that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto
thee, how often
would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her
chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
Matthew 23:39
For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall
say, Blessed is he that cometh
in the name of the Lord.
Congress the Supreme Court and the religious
people may fight against the true
Christians who stand for God, Jesus Christ and
the true Gospel but there!! will come
a day when they will search for a
Christian that has a real word from the Lord.
Amos 8:11
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in
the land, not a
famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of
hearing the words of the LORD:
II Cor.5:18-20(reconciliation)[6]
5:18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus
Christ, and hath given us the ministry of reconciliation.
5:19 To wit, that God was in Christ,reconciling the world unto himself, not
imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word
of reconciliation.
As God sent his son Jesus into the world to reconcile the world back to God.
In Matthew
28:18-20 Jesus commissioned the disciples to go unto
all the world and preach
the gospel.
Note in verse: 20 Jesus said “Teaching them to observe all things
whatsoever I
have commanded you”(not teaching a
humanistic gospel of convenience)
We today are
to continue the commission Until Christ return.
5:20(ambassadors) Now then we are ambassadors for Christ,
as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye
reconciled to God.
We are ambassadors for Christ. As the different countries or kingdoms have
their ambassadors or representatives so are we ambassadors of the kingdom of
God, to reconcile man-kind back to the Father through Jesus Christ.
Colossians
1:26-29
(Christ in you)
: 26 Even the
mystery which hath been hid from
ages and from generations, but
now is
made manifest to his saints:
: 27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this
mystery
among
the Gentiles which is Christ in You he hope of glory
Romans 8:18-19(Sons of God) [8]
: 18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present times are not worthy to be
compared with the glory which shall be
revealed in us.
: 19 For the earnest expectation of the creature (all of creation/mankind)
waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of god God’.
I realize it appears this whole is off course
with sin and crime, drugs and God haters, and I am not about just foreign
countries but also in the United Sates of America.
The Bible in speaking about
2 Chronicles 7:14
says
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray,
and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven,
and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land
God was given
Solomon the answer to Israel's problems at that time, the same solution still
apply for Israel today and well as America and any other nation that will turn
from sin and evil to serve the true and living God and his Son Jesus. People let
it be known, you may not want to receive Jesus as your lord and savior now but
one day every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus is Lord.
Why not
accept him as Lord and Savior now and serve him rather than reject and face him
as judge at the last day. Jesus loves you and it is not God's will that any
should perish but that all repent and turn from sin and let him live his life in
you for Jesus Is Lord
