“Arise [from the depression and prostration in which circumstances have kept you — rise to a new life]! Shine (be radiant with the glory of The LORD), for your light has come, and the glory of The LORD has risen upon you! For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and dense darkness [all] peoples, but The LORD shall arise upon you [O Jerusalem], and His glory shall be seen on you. And nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.” Isaiah 60:1-3 AMPC

My Word and Promise From The LORD

Many years ago, while in a season of prayer, laying under a pew in a puddle of tears — and I mean that literally — I saw darkness descend on the earth so thick that you could not see any light.

Then I saw people arising — shining like the sun — and cutting through the deep darkness, and The LORD said, “Turn to Isaiah 60 in your Bible.”

In the middle of this Vision, and while reading The Word, The LORD spoke to me and said. “This will happen in your lifetime!”

Then, I couldn’t imagine, or fathom the depth of the darkness that we would be seeing today, and truly that Word seemed so far away, but I know now that since we are seeing this thick darkness that His Promise in it, is that we would arise and shine in the midst of it, and thus the darkness will be dispelled!

Why I Do What I Do

So, all of the Words The LORD gives me for the most part, I cite, “Arise, shine! Jo Ellen Stevens, as an admonishment to The Body of Christ, to arise and shine with The Glory of The LORD, and use the gifts that they have been given to dispel the darkness!”

You are not still here to sit and wait for the rapture — even though that sounds pretty good right now — but we are still here to take the kingdom by force!

My Dream of the Emerging Light

I had a Dream a while back, in which I was standing in a wilderness in dense darkness, when suddenly out of that darkness, I could barely see a people emerging, and these beautiful lights starting coming from them, and went into the heavens.

Then I saw to the left of me a cemetery with graves as far as you could see, but suddenly the people in the graves began to emerge and join those with the light coming forth from them.

As I watched this sight, there was such an excitement from earth and heaven that you could tangibly feel it

We are on the precipice of the greatest reset the world has ever seen — only this will be “a suddenly” that The LORD is about to cause to take place Himself!

Those in darkness believe that they are bringing a re-set — but I’ve got news for them!

God is just exposing the darkness through their efforts, and the burning, shining ones, will soon emerge with such power from heaven and angelic assistance that many will turn from darkness to the light, and The Glory of The LORD will cover the earth as the waters cover the sea!

Just watch — for the Light Show is just about to begin!
