Well, this last hour
has gone by in a hurry.
00:00:01.36\00:00:03.37
Always a blessing to hear
00:00:03.40\00:00:04.73
what the Lord is
doing through others
00:00:04.77\00:00:06.30
and to have the
opportunity as we do
00:00:06.33\00:00:08.97
and that includes you
00:00:09.00\00:00:10.34
to participate
in these ministries
00:00:10.37\00:00:11.71
to support them.
00:00:11.74\00:00:13.07
What an opportunity we
have to make a difference
00:00:13.11\00:00:15.74
in someone else's life,
you know, number of ministries,
00:00:15.78\00:00:17.51
it's interesting to talk
about clean water or food,
00:00:17.55\00:00:20.58
basic necessities of
others around the world
00:00:20.62\00:00:23.22
and so often we
can take for granted.
00:00:23.25\00:00:24.99
Yeah.
00:00:25.02\00:00:26.35
Clean water, good food,
00:00:26.39\00:00:28.16
and we've got this
clean water that's here.
00:00:28.19\00:00:30.19
You know, a lot
of times, I think,
00:00:30.23\00:00:31.69
we also take for
granted the Word of God,
00:00:31.73\00:00:33.19
the freedom we have
00:00:33.23\00:00:34.80
of being able to
open the scriptures
00:00:34.83\00:00:36.60
and read what God
has for each one of us.
00:00:36.63\00:00:40.04
So I see your Bible open,
what's on your heart right now?
00:00:40.07\00:00:43.57
Isaiah 58,
00:00:43.61\00:00:44.94
we started the
program with Isaiah 58.
00:00:44.97\00:00:46.31
We did.
00:00:46.34\00:00:47.68
And how we are
supposed to share the bread,
00:00:47.71\00:00:49.88
feed the hungry,
00:00:49.91\00:00:51.25
we're supposed to minister
00:00:51.28\00:00:52.61
to those who are poor or naked
or oppressed or in bondage.
00:00:52.65\00:00:56.62
But if you just jump
over a couple chapters,
00:00:56.65\00:00:59.05
Isaiah 60 is probably
one of my favorite verses.
00:00:59.09\00:01:02.82
I like the whole
entire book of Isaiah,
00:01:02.86\00:01:04.86
but Isaiah 60:1 says,
00:01:04.89\00:01:06.49
"Arise, shine, for
your light has come
00:01:06.53\00:01:10.00
and the glory of the
Lord is risen upon you.
00:01:10.03\00:01:13.77
For behold,
00:01:13.80\00:01:15.14
deep darkness
shall cover the earth,
00:01:15.17\00:01:17.51
gross darkness, the people,
00:01:17.54\00:01:19.37
but the Lord will arise over you
00:01:19.41\00:01:22.24
and His glory
will be seen upon you.
00:01:22.28\00:01:24.61
Gentiles shall
come to your light,
00:01:24.65\00:01:27.68
and kings to the
brightness of your arise."
00:01:27.72\00:01:31.12
Praise God.
00:01:31.15\00:01:32.49
And if you look at
the previous chapter,
00:01:32.52\00:01:34.29
the end of verse 59,
00:01:34.32\00:01:35.66
it talks about the Holy Spirit,
00:01:35.69\00:01:37.53
with the
outpouring of the Holy Spirit
00:01:37.56\00:01:39.86
in your life and in mine,
00:01:39.89\00:01:41.96
we can arise, we can shine,
00:01:42.00\00:01:44.53
we can share this gospel
00:01:44.57\00:01:47.20
to the far corners of the earth.
00:01:47.24\00:01:49.04
So I'm so
grateful for the ministries
00:01:49.07\00:01:51.17
we featured today,
00:01:51.21\00:01:52.54
what they are doing to arise
and shine and share the gospel.
00:01:52.57\00:01:56.48
We encourage you arise
and shine and share Jesus.
00:01:56.51\00:01:59.88
Amen. And bye-bye.
00:01:59.91\00:02:01.25
