Summary
When the prophet Isaiah declared, “Arise and shine,” it was more than simply an encouragement—it was a commission. The Light of the world longs to shine through His people. In this message, Bill Johnson unpacks Isaiah 60:1-5, inviting the Church to step into the promises of God now. While some promises unfold over time, many are meant to be lived in and expressed today. Why do we believe at times that certain promises aren’t for us? And what might the world look like if the Church walked in greater boldness and faith in what God has spoken? Join us as we respond to this invitation—to arise, to shine, and to step into a deeper level of faith, trusting God to fulfill His Word in and through our lives.
