In this month of our “SUNRISE AND SUNSHINE” we must make a self determined effort to examine some core concepts about the Biblical Children of Light.
The word of God tells us in John 8:12 that God is Light! therefore if God is light everyone under God’s shadow is under the light and can safely be called a child of light. Mathew 5:14 says we are the light of the world so as Children in Dominion Mercy Seat we can boldly proclaim ourselves as “CHILDREN OF LIGHT” because we are God’s children before becoming the children of our biological parents.
The Bible says in Jeremiah 1:5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart…….” And in Psalm 139:13 the word of God tells us that “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb”. In Mathew 19:14 Jesus said “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the Kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these”. In Luke 18:16 and Mark 10:14 Jesus made the same plea that Children should be allowed to come to HIM.
We must therefore examine some important assurances and commands from God for Children of Light in Dominion Mercy Seat.
We must:
1. Be a “Timothy” to our teachers and parents. Philippians 2:19-20
2. We must be a light to our friends in School especially those who do not believe in Jesus as Lord and Savior. Isaiah 49:6B
3. We must remain chosen. Isaiah 49:7
4. We must not fellowship with unbelievers. Ephesians 5:11
5. We must readily forgive. Mathew 18:2-4; Ephesians 4:32 and Colossians 3:13
You will have good success this 2016.
Remain blessed.
Shalom

Light in the Night
By Pastor 'Deji Adewale
There are many biblical interpretations of night. 1st Thessalonians 5:5-8 tells us that sins are committed in the night or darkness - “For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night.
But since we belong to the day, let us be self-controlled” Night time is generally an unpleasant time.
It is a time of sadness and weeping for some (Psalm 30:5), wearisome to the afflicted, lonely, favorable to the purpose of the wicked, wild beasts go forth in search of prey during the night, time of stumbling, of spiritual darkness, seasons of severe calamities, of spiritual desertion, even death.
Night time could be bitter, hellish, unpalatable, and painful. But thank God that those in their nighttime are not left alone, they are not hopeless. Zechariah 14:7 says – “At night time it shall be light”. There is light in the dark tunnel.
Though we walk through the valley of the shadow of death we shall fear no evil, for He is with us; His rod and His staff they comfort us. Are you going through a nighttime experience right now?
Things are just not working your way; you weep inwardly…Arise, shine, my brothers & sisters, for thy light has come. “At night time it shall be light”
You will have good success this 2016.
Remain blessed.
Shalom.

Arise and Shine
Isaiah 60:1 – “Arise; Shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee …” The main reason given by Isaiah why the people should arise and shine is because their light has come and the glory of the LORD is risen upon them.
In this verse, the light referred to here is our Lord Jesus Christ, who is the Son of God.
4: 6 refers to Him as the Sun of Righteousness. John 8:12 and 9:5 describes Jesus Christ as the "Light of the world" The “rising and shining” of our light also has to do with God's glory shining through us.
This succeeding verses mentioned this – “the glory of the Lord is risen upon you” and “But the Lord will arise over you, and His glory will be seen upon you” We have no light of our own, except that which comes from the Lord. And with the coming of the greater the lesser terminates.
No matter how great a situation, person or thing is, when a greater, stronger and more dominant appears, the lesser is done away with. Light terminates darkness. When Light comes, darkness flees, scampers away, ab-sconds… John 1:5 – “And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not” I declare that every darkness in our lives shall give way to the light of God...
You will have good success this 2016.
Remain blessed.
Shalom.

The Case for a New Wine
By Min. Ike Mbila
In this month of our “NEW WINE” we must make a self determined effort to examine some core concepts about the Biblical wine.
The word wine is mentioned about 231 times in the King James Version. In Luke 5:37-38, the Bible reminds us that no man putteth new wine into old bottles and In verse 38 it reminds us that new wine must be put in new bottles to preserve both the wine and the bottle. Our monthly theme “NEW WINE” is taken from the book of Mark 2:22 where the Bible illustrates further that new wine cannot be put into old bottles or “WINE SKIN” that new wine must be put into new bottles in order to preserve both.
The old wine skin or bottle will imply our “old self” unrepented and unchanged creation. Whereas the new wine skin or bottle will be our “repented” new self or creation that has been redeemed and sanctified once and forever by the precious blood of our LORD JESUS CHRIST.
We will see why Christ warns that putting a new wine in an old bottle will burst and destroy the old bottle. The heavenly principle that “LIGHT WILL DESTROY DARKNESS” is very evident in the parable. So if we combine our old self (life without Christ) with the “HOLY SPIRIT” we are bound for massive destruction and eternal condemnation.
Brethren do we sincerely give thought to our old ways, our anger issues, our bitterness issues, our drinking and smoking binges, our harlotry, idolatry, envy, jealousy, greed, pride. Etc.
The Lord will help us make a case for NEW WINE in Jesus Name Amen. May we not fall back into our own vomit! God will anoint our eyes so that we may see Rev. 3:18
You will have good success this 2016.
Remain blessed.
