Swimming In Glory Part 2 Sermon By Pastor E A Adeboye
Father! This very moment remove the garment of shame from my life, cloth me with your glory.
Song: We give You glory, we give You honor
Text: Isaiah 60:1 – 3
Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
You cannot shine without the light
You cannot get light from Satan, is called the king of darkness
Jesus is light – John 8:12
Mathew 5:14 – Jesus decree we are the light of the world.
Isaiah 42:6-7 – Jesus is calling you out of Darkness
Micah 7:8 – The fault is yours, if you die in darkness – Altar Call
Tonight I will be speaking on the word Arise
Arise! Means different things to different people depending on the position where you are.
Arise of Isaiah 60:1 is not an advice nor a plea but a command.
Arise to someone who is dead is come to live – Mark 5:35-43
Arise to someone to who is mentally dead is come back to your right senses
Arise to someone who is materially or financially dead is be debt free – 1 Kings 4:1-7
Arise to someone who is maritally dead – Romans 4:17-20
Arise to someone who is Spiritually dead is Come out of Sin – Ephesians 2:1
Death is symbolic of hopelessness – Job 14:7-10, John 11:20-25
Attack that hopeless situation in your life, refuse to surrender to that hopeless situation in your life
Say I will Arise
Arise to someone who is Sleeping means Wake up – 1 Samuel 26:4-16, Mathew 13:14-28
Sleeping is motion without progress – Proverbs 26:14
Sleeping means unfulfilled dreams – Isaiah 29:18
In the mighty name of Jesus I will arise
Arise to someone Sitting down means stand up
Sitting means:
Resting too soon – Complacent 1 kings 13:1-35
Psalm 1:1 – Retrogression
From a Champion to Relict – 1 Samuel 10:1, Luke 15:11-19
The Lord has me to tell someone here tonight: It doesn’t matter what the enemy might try there will be no mourning in your family this year
Arise to someone who is standing means Jumping into action – 1 Samuel 16:11-13, Acts 3:1-8
Keep moving – 2 Kings 7:1-11, Mathew 14:23-29
Take steps to fulfill your potentials. Anyone who is not ready to take risk will not move far.
The Lord said I should tell someone here tonight “I have destroyed the destroyer before, I will do so again
Your greatest worry will turn out to be a false alarm
Arise to someone who is walking means start running
1 Samuel 17:39-49, 2 Kings 2:1-15, Acts 8:5-8
Arise to someone who is running means accelerates your promotion
The Lord said I should tell someone “Since am the one building you, every effort to bring you down will fail.
The pain comes suddenly, the pain will disappear suddenly
Arise to someone who is already running means begin to fly – Isaiah 50:31, Acts 8:26-40
The Lord said I should tell someone “You will struggle less and yet increase more
Arise to someone who is already flying means move from glory to glory
2 Corinthians 3:18, Acts 5:14-16, Acts 9:32-35
Jesu dabira láyé mi – Before the end of this month that will be your song
