Rhapsody Of Realities 12 July 2024 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy): Our Light—A Blazing Inferno
TOPIC: Our Light—A Blazing Inferno (Rhapsody of Realities 12 July 2024)
Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire (Matthew 3:12).
Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:
In Isaiah 10, the prophet prophesied saying, “And the Light of Israel shall become a fire and His Holy One a flame, and it will burn and devour [the Assyrian’s] thorns and briers in one day” (Isaiah 10:17 AMPC). In understanding this prophetic passage, it’s crucial to grasp its spiritual connotations.
While it may initially seem to address the Assyrian king or empire of the time, there’s a deeper layer of prophetic significance pointing to the future. First, the Assyrian is the spiritual description of the antichrist in the Old Testament. With that in mind, let’s read the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:14 (NIV): “You are the light of the world….”
As Christians, we are the light of the world, and in this prophetic vision, our light transcends mere illumination; it’s a raging fire—a blazing inferno! Furthermore, the Bible Bible says, “…it will burn and devour [the Assyrian’s] thorns and briers in one day” (Isaiah 10:17 AMPC).
These thorns and briers represent the evil schemes, deception, and devious agenda being orchestrated by the enemy in today’s world. The imagery projected and painted by the prophet is that we’re the fire that burns and devours the Assyrian’s thorns and briers.
Through our words, we obliterate the deceptive works of the antichrist in these last days.
We’ve been empowered by the Spirit to be a ferocious fiery force against the works of darkness. In essence, we are the fire and they are the chaff. Hallelujah! Have this consciousness. You’re the light of the world, the beacon of hope and transformation to those around you.
Therefore, ignite a blazing fire to consume the works of darkness. Everywhere you are, speak God’s Word. Proclaim His truth and establish His righteousness in your world. It’s your calling. Hallelujah!
Dear Father, thank you for making me a bearer of your divine light. I’m a beacon of hope and transformation to those around me, empowered by your Spirit to ignite a blazing fire against the works of darkness in these last days. I declare that your righteousness is established in the earth and in the hearts of men, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Ephesians 5:8 – For ye were sometimes darkness, but now [are ye] light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
Matthew 5:14-16: Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Philippians 2:14-15: Do all things without murmurings and disputings: 15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
