ARISE AND SHINE

arise and shine
Isaiah 60:1-2 (NKJV) Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. 2 For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth,  And deep darkness the people; But the Lord will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you.
 
Ephesians 5:14 (NKJV) 14 Therefore He says: “Awake, you who sleep,  Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light.”
We can be walking and going around doing our daily work and yet be a sleep.
For this reason, the Scripture says, "Awake, sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you" (Eph. 5:14). If we truly want Christ to "shine" upon us, we must arise from the distractions that entomb us in lethargy and spiritual darkness.
Arise from our passivity and experience HIS Glorious Presence and allow HIM to flow through us to refresh those who are around us and who are heavily burdened and oppressed.
Chris.K.
