TOPIC: DARE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE (PART 8)
TEXT : ISAIAH 60:1-3 – “Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee. And the gentiles shall come to thy, and kings to the brightness of your rising.”
The ultimate interest of God for redeeming you and I is for us to be the light in the midst of gross darkness so as to attract the gentiles and their kings into His kingdom through the out of this world order of exploits – Daniel 11:32, 1Peter 2:9, 1Cor 2:9
Now, how you came to the kingdom of God does not really matter to your change of story because God will never consult your negative past to determine His dealings with you for your future, what matters the most to God is your determination on how to make a difference with the light of the word of God that you allow to gain entrance into your heart – Psalms 119:130
You are permitted to come into the kingdom as a sinner but you are not permitted to remain a sinner, you are permitted to come in a ‘sickler’ but you are not permitted to remain sick, you are permitted to come poor but you are not permitted to remain poor, you are permitted to come in beaten, battered and shattered but you are not permitted to remain so because the word is eternally programmed to change us and our story positively – 2Cor 4:15-18, 3:17-18
The word of God is largely designed to change us inside-out with visible evidence of being changed into the same image of the Son of God and now moving from one level of glory to another level by the Spirit of the Lord – 2Cor 3:17-18
Until the word changes you nothing around will change. The change of your situation and challenges begins from your own change.
HOW TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
8. MAKE THE ENTRANCE OF THE WORD YOUR DAILY PRIORITY - Psalms 119:130 “The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.”
Reading and studying the word is good but the entrance of the word of God to produce light is far better.
In this kingdom, there is no two way to make a difference other than through the light of the word that enters the heart. In the world, there are countless numbers of ways to making a difference in their own way but in this kingdom it is only by the entrance of the word. You are either a true Christian by the light of God’s word or you are not because there is no middle ground.
As a redeemed child of God that desires to make a difference, you must labour on the word until it produces light in you. Until the word turns to light the struggles continues. Immediately the word of God became light in Genesis Chapter one, every other things came to existence sequentially after the order of their importance.
For example, sea came before the fish and the Garden of Eden and all that matters was ready before man was created.
Looking at the illustration above, it is clear that light is the most important thing in the times crises including pandemic and the aftermath economic implications. So go after the light of the word of God in the area where you are challenged.
The devil does not really have power as it were but only take advantage of our ignorance in the midst of darkness – Hosea 4:6, Isaiah 5:13
WHY IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORD SO IMPORTANT?
A. LIGHT PROMOTES ORDER AND ORDERLINESS OF ALL THINGS. Where there is no light or adequate light all you see is nothing but chaos and disorderliness that engenders untimely death. Job 10:22
B. IT OFFERS VISION. Knowing your place in destiny is by the unveiling of the light of the word of God – Isaiah 29:11, Proverbs 29:18
We all are expected to catch the vision of our life assignment from the word after the order of John the Baptist and Jesus Christ – Luke 4:16-21, John 1:19-23, Malachi 3:1, Isaiah 40:3-4
C. IT OFFERS DIVINE GUIDANCE AND DIRECTION. The light of the word is what guarantees divine guidance and direction which forbids confusion – Psalms 119:105
D. IT GUARANTEES DIVINE SPEED. In the natural, the one that has light in darkness runs faster than the one without light. The same is applicable in the kingdom, with the light of the word of God at work in you, you will enjoy divine speed of accomplishments.
REMEMBER THIS, IT TAKES THE ENTRANCE OF THE WORD WITH LIGHT TO ARREST THE DEVIL AND ALL THE ACTIVITIES OF THE POWER OF DARKNESS AND CHASE THEM OUT OF YOUR LIFE AND ALL THAT HAS TO DO WITH YOU BECAUSE THE DOMINION OF LIGHT OVER DARKNESS IS INSTANT AND UNQUESTIONABLE - John1:4-5
WHAT YOU DO WITH THE WORD OF GOD IS WHAT DETERMINES WHERE YOU WILL SPEND ETERNITY.
As the Lord God lives and in the Mighty Name Of Jesus Christ, I decree the outbreak of light of the word of God in your heart as you listen to and study the word, and all that you have lost to carelessness and ignorance be supernaturally restored sevenfold with the speed of light. Joel 2:25, Proverbs 6:30-31
SEE YOU AT THE TOPMOST TOP.
REMAIN EVER BLESSED.
JESUS IS LORD.
