The story of our life is only understood once we see the full
picture. The book of Job is not understood by reading the words of Job
and his ‘comforters’. We must also hear the Word of the Lord. The
history of God’s salvation is not understood by reading only about
Christ’s first coming. We must look on to His Second Coming. Concerning
that Coming, we might imagine Jesus Christ speaking to the Father in the
words of the Psalmist: “You armed me with strength for battle; You
humbled my adversaries before me” (Psalm 18:39; see also Philippians
2:9-11 and 1 Corinthians 15:24-28).
"Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you" (Isaiah 60:1). * Let the light of Christ shine. * Let the words of Scripture lead to thoughts of the Saviour. * In Christ, we are called to salvation, sanctification and service. * Be wise – worship the Saviour. Is 60:1-6; Ps 72:1-7,10-14; Eph 3:1-12; Mt 2:1-12
