“The Engrafted Word “
THE ARISING
Isaiah 60:1 “Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.”
Beloved, welcome to September.
THE MONTH OF INCREASED GLORY
God is not calling us to another ordinary month. He is calling us to ARISE
The word “arise” means to wake up, to stand up, to take your position for receiving the increased glory.
This morning, God is shaking us out of delay, out of sleep, out of smallness.
It’s time for THE ARISING
God wants us to know the following:
RECOGNIZE THE LIGHT THAT HAS COME
_“...for thy light is come”
the reason we can arise is because light has come.
That light is Jesus. John 8:12
That light is the Word. Psalm 119:105
That light is the Holy Spirit.
Darkness may cover the world, but over you the light has come.
You cannot arise in darkness. But when light comes, you must stand up.
Don’t sit in darkness when God has turned on the light in your life.
THE GLORY IS RISING UPON YOU
_“...and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.”
This September is not about ordinary visitation. It’s for *INCREASED GLORY*.
Glory means weight, presence, manifestation, beauty.
When glory rises upon you:
Stagnation breaks
What was dry begins to flourish.
Attraction begins
Nations shall come to your light”. Helpers, opportunities, and resources will locate you.
Transformation happens
2 Cor 3:18 From glory to glory.
But glory responds to posture.
You must ARISE to carry it.
Get into position.
Worship. Pray. Sow. Serve. The glory is looking for carriers.
THE MANDATE OF THE ARISING
When you arise, 3 things happen:
You Shine:
Your life becomes a testimony. People will see God on you. Let your excellence shine this month.
You Attract:
1. Kings to the brightness of thy rising.”_ Your business, ministry, and family will attract divine help.
You Influence:
Arising people don’t follow the crowd. They lead. Arise and take territory for God in your office, school, and home.
The enemy wants you sleeping. God is saying WAKE UP.
This week, arise in prayer. Arise in the Word - join *The Engrafted Word every Sunday 9:45AM as you fellowship with brethren.
Arise and bring someone with you.
I pray for you today.
Father, in the name of Jesus, I charge every man, woman, and youth here reading this word
*ARISE AND SHINE!*
I decree that the glory of the Lord is rising upon you this September.
Darkness is broken. Delay is broken.
As you arise, nations will come to your light.
Declare this with me in confidence .
Lord, I arise. I refuse to sleep. Let Your glory rise upon me.”
September is ours. We are arising. We are shining. We are carrying increased glory.
God bless you
Shalom.
