THE LIGHT OF REVELATION 10-2-2020
VIDEO BILL JOHNSON GODS REVELATION
We are reminded in Isaiah to rise and shine to let the revelation of who God is be revealed upon us. We, the body of Christ become a sign to the world. God reveals many things to us showing us our future and what is to come. Light is Heavens revelation. Light is a revealing or a revelation that is communicating divine truth. Its an enlightening or an astonishing disclosure. Revelation is used to make known to the public or to the world the things of God. All the earth is groaning waiting to see the revelation of the sons of God. Revelation is to disclose the times -to have mysteries disclosed, or revealed to us. Paul discloses his revealed mysteries to us in the word of God. Reveal means to know and to live accordingly.
Isa 60:1-3 Get out of bed, Jerusalem! Wake up. Put your face in the sunlight. God's bright glory has risen for you.
2 The whole earth is wrapped in darkness, all people sunk in deep darkness,
But God rises on you, his sunrise glory breaks over you.
3 Nations will come to your light, kings to your sunburst brightness. MSG

ISA 60:1-3 Rise up in splendor and be radiant, for your light has dawned, and Yahwehs glorynow streams from you!

but Yahweh arisesupon you and the brightness of his glory appears over you!
3 Nations will be attracted to your radiant lightand kings to the sunrise-glory of your new day. TPT
2 Cor 4:6 It started when God said, "Light up the darkness!" and our lives filled up with light as we saw and understood God in the face of Christ, all bright and beautiful. MSG

2 COR 4:6 Let brilliant light shine out of darkness, is the one who has cascaded his light into usthe brilliant dawning light of the glorious knowledge of God as we gaze into the face of Jesus Christ. TPT
MATT 11:25-27 Then Jesus exclaimed, Father, thank you, for you are Lord, the Supreme Ruler over heaven and earth! And you have hidden the great revelation of your authority from those who are proud and wise in their own eyes. Instead, you have shared it with these who humble themselves.
26 Yes, Father, your plan delights your heart, as youve chosen this way to extend your kingdomby giving it to those who have become like trusting children.
27 You have entrusted me with all that you are and all that you have. No one fully and intimately knows the Son except the Father. And no one fully and intimately knows the Father except the Son. But the Son is able to unveil the Father to anyone he chooses. TPT
EPH 1:17-19 I pray that the Father of glory, the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, would impart to you the riches of the Spirit of wisdom and the Spirit of revelationto know him through your deepening intimacy with him.
18 I pray that the light of God will illuminate the eyes of your imagination, flooding you with light, until you experience the full revelation of the hope of his callingthat is, the wealth of Gods glorious inheritances that he finds in us, his holy ones!
19 I pray that you will continually experience the immeasurable greatness of Gods power made available to you through faith. Then your lives will be an advertisement of this immense power as it works through you! This is the mighty power TPT
PAUL Gal 1:15-16 But when He, Who had chosen and set me apart [even] before I was born and had called me by His grace (His undeserved favor and blessing), saw fit and was pleased
16 To reveal (unveil, disclose) His Son within me so that I might proclaim Him among the Gentiles (the non-Jewish world) as the glad tidings (Gospel), immediately I did not confer with flesh and blood [did not consult or counsel with any frail human being or communicate with anyone]. AMP
EPH 6:19 And pray also that Gods revelation would be released through me every time I preach the wonderful mystery of the hope-filled gospel. TPT
MYSTERY Col 1:27 God wanted everyone, not just Jews, to know this rich and glorious secret inside and out, regardless of their background, regardless of their religious standing. The mystery in a nutshell is just this: Christ is in you, therefore you can look forward to sharing in God's glory. It's that simple. That is the substance of our Message. MSG
Eph 3:4-6 As you read over what I have written to you, you'll be able to see for yourselves into the mystery of Christ.
5 None of our ancestors understood this. Only in our time has it been made clear by God's Spirit through his holy apostles and prophets of this new order.
6 The mystery is that people who have never heard of God and those who have heard of him all their lives (what I've been calling outsiders and insiders) stand on the same ground before God. They get the same offer, same help, same promises in Christ Jesus. The Message is accessible and welcoming to everyone, across the board. MSG

↕↕↕
EPH 3:9-10 My passion is to enlighten every person to this divine mystery. It was hidden for ages past until now, and kept a secret in the heart of God, the Creator of all.

1 Cor 2:7 God's wisdom is something mysterious that goes deep into the interior of his purposes. You don't find it lying around on the surface. It's not the latest message, but more like the oldest what God determined as the way to bring out his best in us, long before we ever arrived on the scene.
8 The experts of our day haven't a clue about what this eternal plan is. If they had, they wouldn't have killed the Master of the God-designed life on a cross.
9 That's why we have this Scripture text: No one's ever seen or heard anything like this, Never so much as imagined anything quite like it What God has arranged for those who love him. MSG
1 Cor 2:10 But you've seen and heard it because God by his Spirit has brought it all out into the open before you. The Spirit, not content to flit around on the surface, dives into the depths of God, and brings out what God planned all along.
11 Who ever knows what you're thinking and planning except you yourself? The same with God except that he not only knows what he's thinking,
12 but he lets us in on it. God offers a full report on the gifts of life and salvation that he is giving us.
13 We don't have to rely on the world's guesses and opinions. We didn't learn this by reading books or going to school; we learned it from God, who taught us person-to-person through Jesus, and we're passing it on to you in the same firsthand, personal way. MSG

HEB 12:25 Make very sure that you never refuse to listen to God when he speaks! For the God who spoke on earth from Sinai is the same God who now speaks from heaven. Those who heard himspeak his living Word on earth found nowhere to hide, so what chance is there for us to escape if we turn our backs on God and refuse to hear his warnings as he speaks from heaven? TPT

ROM 3:21-22 But now, independently of the law, the righteousness of God is tangible and brought to light through Jesus, the Anointed One. This is the righteousness that the Scriptures prophesied would come. It is Gods righteousness made visible through the faithfulness of Jesus Christ. And now all who believe in him receive that gift. For there is really no difference between us.
