Hauting prayer - ''Տեր ողորմեա'' - Lord, have mercy:
http://minkristnasamhllsblogg.blogspot.fi/2015/10/prayer.html"He uncovers the deeps out of darkness and brings deep darkness to light." Job 12:22
"Let there be light" (Gen. 1:3)
- When darkness is overwhelming in so many places in our world, Jesus is light. Hold on to the Word of God. John 1:5 (ESV) "The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it."
And you are light (Matt.5:14) : "Let your light shine" Matt. 5:16
We are "children of light, children of the day. We are not of the night or of the darkness." 1 Thess. 5:5
Persecution - On the way to Damascus (of all places):
"And I said, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ And the Lord said, ‘I am Jesus whom you are persecuting. But rise and stand upon your feet, for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you as a servant and witness to the things in which you have seen me and to those in which I will appear to you, delivering you from your people and from the Gentiles—to whom I am sending you to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.' Acts 26:15-18
Isis has no power; "turn from darkness to light, from the power of Satan to God."
Matt. 28:18 "Jesus came and said: “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me."
"God has highly exalted him (Jesus) and bestowed on him (Jesus) the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." Phil. 2:8-11
"looking to Jesus" Hebr. 12:2 (ESV) who is "seated at the right hand of the throne of God." Amen.
- We praise him and we serve him. He is the living God. Jer.10:10 "the LORD is the true God; he is the living God and the everlasting King. At his wrath the earth quakes, and the nations cannot endure his indignation."
Isis is dead.
"Be exalted, O God, above the heavens! Let your glory be over all the earth!" Ps. 57:5
Ps. 21:13 "Be exalted, O LORD, in your strength! We will sing and praise your power."
