“ “1 Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. 2 For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the Lord will arise upon you, and his glory will be seen upon you. 3 And nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising. 4 Lift up your eyes all around, and see; they all gather together, they come to your sons shall come from afar, and your daughters shall be carried on the hip. 5 Then you shall see and be radiant; your heart shall thrill and exult, because the abundance of the sea shall be turned to you, the wealth of the nations shall come to you.””
Even as we are about to complete our 21 days of prayer/ fasting, the Lord is moving us into a season of breakthrough. Our light has come and we must rise up and walk in his glory. Of course darkness will show its ugly head but we will fear not because the glory of God is with us. We must keep shining our light because the nations around us will depend on us. The blessings of the Lord is our portion.
