I bring you all greetings from my father in the Lord Pastor Samuel Oguche as I share with you this morning the message in church today.
Our Bible reading for today is from Isaiah 60:1-2 and our memory verse is from Isaiah 60:1 "Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you."
What does it mean to shine? It means you're not having anything covering you from being seen. To shine means that you can easily be spotted in the multitude. To shine means an outstanding fellow in the midst of others. NB; outstanding could be positive or negative, in this context we mean the positive kind of outstanding. To shine means to be defiled. To shine is to exhibit brilliance in intellectual power. To shine has to do with the way someone appear Ezekiel 43:2, it is our duty to shine in the glory of God.
What do we need to shine in the glory of God? Ezekiel 43:7-10. God has created us in His glory and therefore we designed to shine. There is the good kind of shining and the bad kind. We are not clamouring for the shining of the wicked rather the Godly kind of shining. Every shining needs a light, thus no Christian can shine without the light of God, the light of God is the word of God and the word of God is Jesus.
To shine in the glory of God is a matter of choice. When we are shining in the glory of God, personal ego will have to die. Shining in the glory of God removes the trouble of how am I going to do it.
How can one miss shining in the glory of God? The only way to miss shining in the glory of God is when one is living outside the word and will of God.
