—Isaiah 60:1-5
by: Jennifer Lewis Berg.
Isaiah was writing about things that had not yet happened. He predicted a great time when the Messiah would come and all of God’s creation would change. God’s people would shine with the brightest light, replacing the darkness of the world of sin. Such light would come from the Messiah and would shine out of each believer. All the people of the world, those who have never had a chance to see such light, will be attracted to the glory that comes from this new world. Israel will enlighten the rest of the world. This is why Jesus challenged His followers to let their light shine before men.
