THE APOSTOLIC CHURCH NIGERIA
INYENE- ABASI DISTRICT
UMON ASSEMBLY
REPORT FOR FIRST SUNDAY OF SEPTEMBER (7TH-09-2025)
WORD CHARGE
SPEAKER: Elder O. S. Akpan
INTERPRETER: Bro. Jephthah Godwin
THEME: "LIGHT"
TEXT: Isaiah 60:1-2, Matt. 5:16, Psalm 57:1-2
The word "Light" symbolizes restoration and salvation. The light signifies the salvation God brings to His people, rescuing them from their plight and restoring them to a place of honor and blessing. This theme is echoed in other parts of Scripture, such as Psalm 27:1, which declares, "The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear?"
Just as God rescued Job from the devil's plight and restored him to a place of honor and blessings, He also honored David as the last child of Jesse.
Jesus Christ Himself declared that He is the light of the world, meaning that whoever follows Him shall not walk in darkness but will continue dwelling in God's light.
In conclusion, the preacher emphasized that the light of God is important in a believer's life. When we dwell in God's light, God is glorified, and we will be fulfilled (Matthew 5:16). It is also important for us to dwell in the Light of God, for the light of God has nothing to do with darkness.
