We have heard and seen these astronomical phenomenons
- Blue Moon
- Red Moon
- Eclipses
There is a whole astronomical study done on Moon, Its movement, Composite, Impact on the earth magnetic field etc. Meticulously Lunar eclipse dates are recorded, future dates are predicted. When we all know for
a fact that Moon is a celestial body that cannot emit light on its own. It
merely reflects the light of the sun like a mirror. Yet, it is the most admired
celestial object by poets and by the artists. In fact one of the first and greatest
mile stone in science and technology advancement is the Man stepping on the Moon. Yes, on the same moon that has neither water resources nor can support living things.
We believers are like the moon. Our Sun is the Son of Righteousness –
Jesus Christ. When we seek HIM, HIS light shine upon us that we reflect HIM (Numbers 6:24-26), So
we become the source of light to this world in its darkness.(Matthew 5:14) When we follow the
world, when earth comes between us and the Sun, we render useless to us and to
others. (1 John 2:15)
LORD teaches 3 things:
1.
When we Seek HIM! We let HIS glory shines upon
us in its entirety. The world rejoices it as a full moon day.
2.
When we slowly give into the world. Our potential
and talent fade and rendered useless.
3.
When we let the world (earth) gets between us and
the Son. There is complete darkness. Moon is no longer in sight and has no light.
Let us seek HIM!
Seek the LORD and His strength; Seek His
face continually.
The LORD has looked down from heaven upon
the sons of men To see if there are any who understand, Who seek after God
And without faith it is impossible to
please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a
rewarder of those who seek Him.
Seek the LORD, All you humble of the earth
Who have carried out His ordinances; Seek righteousness, seek humility Perhaps
you will be hidden In the day of the LORD'S anger.
"I love those who love me; And those
who diligently seek me will find me.
'You will seek Me and find Me when you
search for Me with all your heart.
"But seek His kingdom, and these
things will be added to you.
One thing I have asked from the LORD, that
I shall seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my
life, To behold the beauty of the LORD And to meditate in His temple.
Numbers 6:24-26 New
King James Version (NKJV)
24 “The Lord bless you and keep you;
25 The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
26 The Lord lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.”
25 The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
26 The Lord lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.”
Malachi 4:2
But to you who fear My name The Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings; And you shall go out And grow fat like stall-fed calves
But to you who fear My name The Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings; And you shall go out And grow fat like stall-fed calves
