Sunday 14 December IT IS TIME TO ARISE 1 Meditation: “Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that are sleepeth, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light” (Eph.5:14). Text: Isaiah 60:1-7 For too long the church of Jesus Christ has taken the back seat in every area. We have chosen to walk on bare foot while servants ride on horses. But I came your way today to challenge you to arise. The time for mediocrity is gone: the time to sit back idly and sing the song “whatever will be will be” has passed. It is time to arise. The popular and powerful scripture in Isaiah 60:1-2 “Arise, shine; for the light is come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee for behold, the darkest shall cover the earth and gross darkest the people but the Lord shall arise upon thee and His glory shall be seen upon thee” has been reduced to an ordinary cliché even though we see verse 2 in display right before our very eyes. Beloved, the time has come for it to be a reality. It is a prophetic demand on the church and we cannot afford to fail. The time has come for you to awake from your sleep and slumber and take your rightful position as an agent of change, the authorized agents of heaven on earth. It is an indictment against you as a believer that whenever people want the best of hands for an assignment, they look to the world instead of the church. You are the custodian of the power and grace of God and so you must be the role model to the world. Prayer Requests: 1. Lord, help me to rise to my responsibility as an agent of change. 2. Restore your glory upon the church. 3. Help me to shine wherever I step into. Daily Bible Reading: (Amos 5-6)
