THE SOVEREIGN STRENGTH OF LUMINARY BODIES

THE SOVEREIGN STRENGTH OF LUMINARY BODIES

INTRODUCTION

Writing this particular book encouraged me in so many ways. Firstly, to do everything I must do to make my life count. Secondly, it gave me new understanding of the need to seek whatever I must know and lastly, it re-established the importance of sacrifice in my eternal consciousness. The luminary bodies established the glory and relevance of the stellar firmament through their brightness. The light they produce is the reason why the earth is alive and useful. They are burning bodies that are enthroned through the brightness of their relevance. It is the intensity of their light that separated them into the stellar firmament. God reveals the glory of all that are important to Him through brightness. The destiny of the stellar firmament is tied to the luminary bodies. It is the light of the luminary bodies that separated heaven from the earth.

One of the outstanding lessons to learn as you peruse the pages of this book is that God uses things the way they are made. The sun is a greater light, so it rules the day; while the moon rules the night because its brightness is taken from the sun. Although two of them are burning bodies, their values differ in brightness. Light has rich value and God can’t be introduced to any people without light. Every season belongs to people who have access to its light. The other lesson to learn from this book is that the presence of darkness is the reason why light is relevant. The sun rules because its light dispels darkness. The sovereign way the sun is enthroned to rule because of the light it produces is how we are meant to rule through the harvested light of our relevance. We are all members of the sun family and our relevance is in our brightness.

When Jesus Christ came as the Sun of righteousness, He became the Light of the world. The heavenly throne He is sitting on was made from His harvested brightness. The primary assignment of the incarnate Christ in the life of Jesus was to lighten Him up. We are as important as the problems God depends on us to solve. You are alive because there is a problem you were born to solve. Galilee couldn’t remain in darkness because Jesus Christ was born. It is not how dark our environment is that counts but our willingness to produce the light that is meant to dispel it. Men are declared irrelevant when the problems they were born to solve remain before them. The light of God shines brightest when darkness is thickest.

One day while I was talking to God in prayer concerning my background, He told me that the reason why I was born there was because of the need for the environment to be influenced through me. He encouraged me to be strong and accomplish the purpose that brought me. May be as you are reading this book, you are complaining about why some things are the way they are around you. The sun doesn’t complain about the presence of darkness, it burns to dispel it. Burning reveals the nature and value of luminary bodies. They are enthroned because they burn. Burning should not be seen as suffering but as an opportunity to introduce our relevance. When men sit down on their responsibilities, God will be forced to ignore their destinies.

You need to be told that God doesn’t separate answers from questions. The reason why darkness is the habitation of light is because the solution to every problem is with the problem. The light that luminary bodies produce declare their usefulness. Where there is no light, there will be no life. God created Himself and everything that is important to Him from mass of light. Brightness is not cheap; it will always determine how useful we are to God and ourselves.

This is a new season in the history of man and its relevance is waiting to be declared through the brightness of the church. Everything that is happening around us is forcing us to burn and this present church will be declared valueless if she ignores the privilege of preserving this season through her brightness. The sacrificial nature of the luminary bodies is the reason why the ordinances of the sun and the moon will remain before God.

The spiritual kingdom of God was established through the brightness of Jesus Christ. Calvary is a place of sacrifice where the Son of God burnt to death because of His desire to accomplish redemption. The revealed light of Jesus’ life is the reason why God’s kingdom can’t be overthrown. Jesus depended on the harvested light of Christ to illuminate the heaven. A dominion where there is no need of sun and moon will definitely be the desire of all nations.

The passion I have to do everything I must do to make sure that the light of God shines in Africa and the world is the capital reason why I wrote this book. Make it a must-read.
