Brighter and Brighter!
I heard the phrase, “Brighter and brighter” which comes from the verse in Proverbs,
“But the path of the righteous is like the light of Dawn that shines brighter and brighter unto the perfect day.” Proverbs 4:18.
And I saw the Bride of Christ walking down a dark forest path. She was becoming increasingly worried and perplexed and upset.
When she looked down, all around her was darkness. Fear was gripping her heart.
It seemed like there was no clear way ahead and she was hopelessly lost. She began to weep.
But suddenly she remembered to lift up her head — and she saw a very Bright Image of a Man, with a Glorious Light all around Him.
He was smiling at her and beckoning her to keep walking toward Him. His Smile was the Brilliance of His Countenance, the Glorious Sun of Righteousness shining upon her Path.
Though great darkness is upon the earth and upon the peoples of the earth, the Shining Face of Jesus is our Light.
Keep looking ahead. Look past the darkness. Your Exceeding Great Reward is just ahead.
Arise and shine, Child of God. Be not part of the division, but be a Light in the great darkness.
The darkness can NEVER overcome the Light.
“Beloved. My Smile is never fading, even in the midst of troubles, My Gracious Smile is shining the Way.
Though everything in this world is looking darker and darker, in the Realm of the Spirit, your Path is clear and bright.
The Path of the just is like the first gleam of Dawn, growing brighter and brighter until the Perfect Day.
Your Righteousness will go before you, and the Glory of The LORD will be your rear guard.
You have nothing to fear. Keep looking ahead, My Child!
Keep looking unto Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of your faith.
For the Sun of Righteousness has arisen with Healing in His Wings. The Glory of The LORD has risen upon you.
My Light illuminates and reveals the darkness. Darkness is just the absence of Light.
The Light of the Son is as the Light of the Dawn, even a morning without clouds.
I AM your light and your salvation; whom shall you fear?
The LORD is the strength of your life; of whom shall you be afraid?
It is getting brighter and brighter for you, Dear One.
Look up, your Redemption is drawing near. Divine Glory is shining a Way.
Like the setting of the sun, nothing seems sadder than death and destruction — but the darkness of this world is not the end of the story. It is like the shadow of the eclipse which always passes.
For the fog is always burned away by the Blazing Sun. The obscuring clouds and thick mists are only illusions and disappear with the Rising Sun.
My Light breaks forth like the Dawn, and your healing will come speedily. Your righteousness will go before you, and My Gory will be your rear guard.
Arise and shine, Beloved. I AM well able to keep you from falling.
They that be wise shall SHINE as the Brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
I AM bringing forth your righteousness like the Dawn, your Justice like the noonday sun.
The Time of Joy is almost here. The Spirit and the Bride say,” Come!”
My Splendor is lighting your way. Look to Me, My Child.
Then you, My Righteous One, will shine like the Brilliance of the Sun in the Kingdom of your Father.
He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
SHINE : The word אור (or, Strong’s #H215), as a noun means “light” and as a verb, as it is used here, means to “give light” or “shine” and is equated with bringing about order as light illuminates or reveals what has been dark.
“For God, who said, “Let light SHINE out of darkness,” made His light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. Now we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this surpassingly great power is from God and not from us.” 2 Corinthians 4:6-7.
“The LORD bless you and keep you; The LORD make His face to SHINE upon you and be gracious to you; The LORD lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace.” Numbers 6:24-26 (The Aaronic blessing).
“The Light SHINES in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.” John 1:5.
“Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will come speedily. Your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of The LORD will be your rear guard.” Isaiah 58:8.
“The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, SHINING brighter and brighter until the perfect day.” Proverbs 4:18.
“He will bring forth your righteousness like the dawn, your justice like the noonday sun.” Psalm 37:6.
“Arise, SHINE; For your light has come! And the glory of The LORD is risen upon you. 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.” Isaiah 60:1-2.
“No longer will the sun be your light by day, nor the brightness of the moon shine on your night; for The LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your splendor. Your sun will no longer set, and your moon will not wane; for The LORD will be your everlasting light, and the days of your sorrow will cease.” Isaiah 60:19-20.
“There will be no more night in the city, and they will have no need for the light of a lamp or of the sun. For The LORD God will SHINE on them, and they will reign forever and ever.” Revelation 22:5.
