Shining Through the Darkness

December 30, 2014

Inspired Revelation

The Lord impressed upon me this morning that the darkness is closing in on Malaysia and the whole earth. But His promise and call is in Isaiah 60:1-3 that we God's people should ARISE and SHINE for His light has come upon us and His glory is with us. This is our Mighty God who overcomes and is victorious in the darkest hour. If we stay focused on Him, we shall not lose hope or be faint-hearted for we shall see the victorious end. What a revelation!

Hence, our attitude and preparations would be very different; we would need to be fully equipped with the whole armor of God to join Him in fighting the spiritual battle of which we are already victors in Christ. Ephesian 6:11-18 comes to mind for our full preparation and be trained to war against the enemy.

On the other hand, we are the hope of the nations. We need to be equipped with:
1) gifts of the Spirit as in 1 Cor 12:7-11 where we need the anointing of the Holy Spirit to minister to God's people

2) gifts of ministry as in 1 Peter 4:7-10 where we exercise our gifts to bless those outside the kingdom that they may also come in. (John 10:16)

God's heart is still for His creation to have salvation.
