Shine

Episode 1899

Isaiah 60:1–3

Isaiah 60:1-3. It's time for us to wake, stop sleeping and shine for the Lord. In the dark times we are living in, the light will shine even brighter. We reflect the glory of our Lord. Our purpose in life is to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever. You don't have to be a preacher to shine for Jesus, you can shine wherever you are.

Rest

Exodus 33:14, Hebrews 13:5

People are tired, weary and stressed out because they are not spending time in the presence of the Lord. Exodus 33:14. He is the only One Who can give us rest, we will not find it anywhere else. Hebrews 13:5. We need to put God first and spend time with Him.

Expectation

Micah 7:7, Psalm 62:5

Who are you putting your expectation in? It shouldn't be in anyone else but the Lord. Micah 7:7. Psalm 62:5. We shouldn't write off our children, spouse or parents because they don't meet your expectations. We need to be understanding and also learn how to say sorry.

Lukewarm

Matthew 12:30, Revelation 3:16

We cannot serve two masters. Matthew 12:30. We are either for God or against Him. Revelation 3:16. We need to make up our minds as to whether we are going to serve the Lord or the world. God would rather that we be hot or cold, than lukewarm.
