SHINE!

(God Has Made You A Burning And A Shining Light)

TO THE BIBLE - Matthew 5:14,16 NKJV

“You are the light of the world… Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.”

LET’S TALK

Imagine walking into a dark room and suddenly, a single candle is lit. Imagine walking into a dark room, and suddenly, a single candle is lit. That small flame reveals what was hidden, guides your steps, and brings clarity. This simple picture reveals a profound truth about your identity in Christ. You are that light! Not just any light, but the light of the world.

The Lord Jesus declared, “You’re the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden” (Matthew 5:14 NKJV). This is not a suggestion; it’s a divine command. God’s glory in you is meant to radiate through your words, your love, and your conduct. Your life as a Christian is designed to expose deception and to illuminate the path of righteousness for others.

Do not hide your faith or dim your light. Let your actions and your love reflect the transforming power of Christ within you. You are His epistle, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God (2 Corinthians 3:3). Even those who have never read the Bible can read Christ in you through your life.

Isaiah 60:1 NKJV commands, “Arise, shine; for your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.” This is your call to action! God has made you a burning and shining light. So stand up, shine brightly, and illuminate your world with the truth, grace, and righteousness of the Gospel. Hallelujah!

GO DEEPER

Philippians 2:14-15 NLT Do everything without complaining and arguing, 15 so that no one can criticize you. Live clean, innocent lives as children of God, shining like bright lights in a world full of crooked and perverse people.

Isaiah 60:1-3 Arise, shine; for thy 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 shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.

PRAY

Dear Father, thank you for making me the light of the world. I shine brightly in my world today, illuminating lives with your love, truth and grace. My light draws men to Christ and glorifies you always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

MONDAY, 14TH JULY 2025 THE VIRGIN BIRTH CONFIRMS HIS DEITY Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us (Matthew 1:23). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME When we say Jesus Christ is deity, we’re affirmingthat He is God. This claim is significant, especially when you consider that many around the world view Jesus merely as a prophet or a great teacher. While it may seem respectful for some to call Him a great prophet or a remarkable teacher, these assertions fall far short of His true identity. That’s the reason it’s important to understand who He really is by first examining the miracle of His birth. TheBible describes His birth as extraordinary, something that had never occurred in all of history. Matthew 1:18 says, “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with c...

THURSDAY, JULY 31TH 2025 OUR UNIQUE ASSIGNMENTS IN THE MILLENNIUM Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment. And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land (Isaiah 32:1-2). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Our theme scripture is prophetic about the Millennium. The latter part alludes to the unique role we (the Church) would be playing in the millennial reign, when Israel takes center stage. The millennial reign of Christ is not for the Church. It’s for Israel. So, what are we, the Church, going to be doing then? We're going to be carrying out angelic assignments. Our role at the millennial reign of Christ is very different from what a lot of people think; it’s going to be much like what the angels do today in ministering for us. In that day, the Jews will walk in the Millennial blessings that characterize the life of the saints wh...
