No shadow of turning

No shadow of turning 

Num 6:24-26 NKJV "The LORD bless you and keep you; (25) The LORD make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; (26) The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace." '

God wants to make His face shine on us and that means He wants us to be like Him, to talk like Him and to walk like Him and the only way we can do this is if we spend quality time with Him

Jas 1:17-21 NKJV Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. (18) Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of first fruits of His creatures. (19) So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; (20) for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God. (21) Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

God the Father has given us the best through Christ and He wants us to enjoy the spiritual gifts with the same power that Christ enjoyed them, these gifts have been given to us so that we may make perfect use of them, God the Father is the Father of lights and the light that shines in us is Christ

Psa 119:105 NKJV Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.

Psa 43:3 NKJV Oh, send out Your light and Your truth! Let them lead me; Let them bring me to Your holy hill And to Your tabernacle.

See God light wants to lead us to a holy life style and that is why God has given those who are in Christ His Holy Spirit, so we are told to arise and shine because Christ our light has come, the Lord wants us to enjoy His victory and He wants us to stand up in His strength and we are to overcome every situation by the power of Christ and through the guidance and strength of the Holy Spirit

Isa 60:1-3 NKJV Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you. (2) For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, And deep darkness the people; But the LORD will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you. (3) The Gentiles shall come to your light, And kings to the brightness of your rising.

We are called to rule and reign with Christ

Eph 2:4-10 NKJV But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, (5) even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), (6) and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, (7) that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. (8) For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, (9) not of works, lest anyone should boast. (10) For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
