We are in a sermon series covering Revelation 2-3, entitled, “SHINING BRIGHTLY: The Seven Golden Lampstands.” Our theme song is “Shine, Churches, Shine.” I’ve rewritten the lyrics to Graham Kendrick’s “Shine Jesus Shine” to fit our focus better. Our worship team does a great job with it! This song reminds us that our churches need to be lampstands that display Christ’s glory! The video uses the original lyrics, but below you can read the ones we are currently singing.

Lord, the light of Your love is shining
In the midst of the darkness, shining
Jesus, Light of the world, shine upon us
Set us free by the truth You now bring us
Shine on us, shine through us.

Shine, churches, shine, fill our land with the Savior’s story
Blaze, Churches, blaze, with the Spirit’s fire
Glow, churches, glow, show the nations God’s grace and glory
Proclaim His Word, and let there be light.

As we gaze on Your kingly brightness
So our faces display Your likeness
Ever-changing from glory to glory
Mirrored here, may our lives tell Your story
Shine on us, shine through us.

Shine, churches, shine, fill our land with the Savior’s story
Blaze, Churches, blaze, with the Spirit’s fire
Glow, churches, glow, show the nations God’s grace and glory
Proclaim His Word, and let there be light.

Do you know Ukraine is the main missionary-sending country for Eastern Europe & Central Asia? One missiologist said, “The church is very strong. As far as Europe is concerned, the Ukrainian church is perhaps the strongest & is doing the most for education, training, & sending out workers.” A director at Kyiv Theological Seminary said, “Even in the midst of this kind of uncertainty, this kind of ominous threats, (students) are trying to keep their focus on Jesus.” An invasion by Russia is Satan’s way of disrupting this. Missionaries have difficult choices about staying or leaving. Putin may not be THE antichrist, but he is AN antichrist—an anti-Jesus man of ruthless intent who will stop at nothing to reestablish the USSR. He adheres to the Russian Orthodox Church, but remember—the USSR espoused atheism. Events are unfolding on some sort of prophetic timeline, and it behooves us to watch & pray. These are not ordinary times. You & I need to be committed to Jesus, the King of kings.
