The Spirit & the Bride say, "Come!"

"Arise [from the depression and prostration in which circumstances have kept you - arise to new life]! Shine (be radiant with the glory of the Lord), for your Light has come, and the glory of the Lord has rise upon you!" (Zech.8:23 AMP)

We still have a little time to make sure our lamps are filled with the oil of the Holy Spirit, and our wicks are trimmed by cutting off the sin that doth so easily beset us, our wedding garments are without spot or wrinkle by the washing of the water of the Word of God, and that we have the sweet perfumed aroma of the fruit of the spirit in our lives to over come the stench of the flesh in God's nostrils.

In Zechariah 8:23 the word "arise" is actually a command from God to "come up higher!" Following the simplicity of a young girl named Mary, may we respond as she did by saying, "Be it unto me, even as You have spoken."

His Glory has risen upon me,
Father's Little Lamb,
Paulette
