The Glorious Light

Series: I’ll Be Home For Christmas
Message: The Glorious Light
12-20-09

It was God’s design to put Christ in Adam and Adam fell by transgression, but because Jesus was a lamb slain from the foundation of the world, it wasn’t all lost..
God had a plan, a better plan that His son would come, buy back humanity through forgiveness, grace and truth, by the Blood of Christ
It was all because God shined His light, that pure heavenly divine light out of Him
Not a light from the sun, or any light source that our planet could convey, produce, or understand.

Luke 1:79 KJV
79To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
Acts 26:18 (King James Version) 18To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
Luke 2:7-9,14,32 KJV
John 8:12
I am the light of the world: he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life
1 Thessalonians 5:5
5Ye are all the children of light
Matthew 5:14 (King James Version)
14Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
1 Peter 2:9 called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;
2 Corinthians 4:4,6,7 (King James Version)
4In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
6For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
Gen 1:1-3 KJV
• Light has never stopped expanding by 186,000 miles per second
• Light comes to expand
• Light comes to bring reconciliation
• Light has full understanding
Without form and void

1:3 Light: 'owr- Jehovah as Israel's light
1:17 Light: ma’owr- light from sun moon stars…Luminary
No Sun In The Future

We must also note that the Bible says there will be light without the sun in the future New Jerusalem.
Joel 3:15-16
15The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining.
16The LORD also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the LORD will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel.
Rev 21:10-11, 23
10And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
11Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal
23And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
Rev 22:5
And there shall be no night there: They shall need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they shall reign for ever and ever

Isa 60:19
The sun shall no longer be your light by day, nor for brightness the moon shall give light to you; but the Lord will be your everlasting light

Since there will be no need for the sun as a light source in the future, it is certainly possible that there was no need for the sun as a light source in the beginning.
Luke 2:32 light: phos- 1) light
2) a heavenly light such as surrounds angels when they appear on earth
a) God is light because light has the extremely delicate, subtle, pure, brilliant quality
of truth and its knowledge, together with the spiritual purity associated with it
d) reason, mind
1) the power of understanding

26Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days,

8Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy reward.
10And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noon day:
Mat 9:27-30 KJV
27And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou son of David, have mercy on us.
28And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord.
29Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.
30And their eyes were opened
1 John 5:11-12 (King James Version)
11And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

John 1:4
4In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
John 1:9 (King James Version)

17Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning*
God is coming to change the face of things by the Spirit of God
Even though things are without form and void, God is sending a light to your situation
He is going to turn your situation from darkness to light

28And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose
Your issues are going to go from bad situation to God seeing it and calling it good

17(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
 When the light comes healing comes
 When the light comes forgiveness manifests
 When the light comes the answer comes with Peace.
Inside of that Holy Light is God’s creative power, ask Him during this season specifically, for that light to beam from you.
