BEHOLDING THE SUN
💍 Truly The Light Is Sweet, And A Pleasant Thing It Is For The Eyes To Behold The Sun.
Ecclesiastes 11 :7
The light is sweet and how pleasant is it for the eyes to see the SUN. The question here is; "Who Are The Eyes If The Holy Spirit is The Eye Of God Upon Us (Psalm 32:8)? Who Is The Sun that The Eyes Love To Behold?"
John a disciple of Jesus reveals to us in Revelation 1:14 that "the Eyes of Jesus were as a flame of Fire." The writer of Hebrews in 1:7 explains further, "And of the Angels He saith, Who Maketh His Angels Spirits, and His Ministers A Flame of Fire." The Holy Spirit is the Eye of God Upon Us the body of Christ, of which He is the "Great Witness". We the ministers of Christ are the "EYES (WITNESSES)" of Christ.
☀ The sun whom the eyes find pleasant to see, is He who Emits Light. The sun emits light and the moon reflects light. Something amazing about the sun is, it is stationary (not moving, unchanging ). Our God is the same yesterday, today and forever (Malachi 3:6, Hebrews 13:8). He is the unchanging changer.
Psalm 84:11, "For the LORD God is A "SUN" and Shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly."
God Almighty is our sun who emits light. He gave us His Word, the Light of the World.
1John 1 :5 - "This Then Is The Message Which We Have Heard of Him, and declare unto you, that God Is Light, And In Him Is No Darkness At All."
David in Psalm 119: 105 & 130 confesses; "Thy Word Is A Lamp Unto My Foot and A Light Unto My Path," & "The Entrance (and unfolding) of Your Words give Light; their unfolding gives 'UNDERSTANDING (discernment and comprehension)' to the simple."
Note that; Understanding is Seeing in Hearing!
Truly, light is sweet and how pleasant is it for the eyes to see the sun. Absence of light is evil and wrong.
CONFESSION:
DEAR LORD JESUS, SAVIOUR & LORD OF MY LIFE. HOW I LOVE YOU & WORSHIP YOU MY SUNSHINE & LIGHT. SHINE JESUS SHINE, FOR MY PATH IS A SHINING LIGHT, SHINING BRIGHTER & BRIGHTER TO A PERFECT DAY. GLORY TO GOD. AMEN.
