“Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.” Psalm 102:13
There are two basic instructions in this
verse Isaiah 60:1 “Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.” – Arise and Shine
‘Arise’ could have different meanings to different people. To someone who has been stagnant, it could mean ‘move.’ To the person already moving, it means ‘increase in speed.’ To one already running, it means ‘fly.
The second instruction is to shine. To shine means to show your light. Matthew 5:14-16 says you are the light of the world. God wants you to use your talents for His glory.
Wherever you are and whoever you are, ensure you make an impact to the glory of God. Help those around you, console the broken-hearted, preach the gospel to sinners, heal the sick and raise the dead.
It is possible. This is God’s will for you.
Arise and shine!
Shalom!
