Bright in the sky at 5 AM this Saturday morning, it glistened. Brighter than anything above, the morning star, brought the hope of sunlight where there appeared to be none.
My pajamas offer little resistance to the cold predawn wind, but I sit and listen to the city bustle below. I am awaiting the glimmer of sky to glow on the horizon. Light gives hope of a new day which is what I like about "the morning star."
Venus (a planet, not a star) is the object in the night-sky that we call "the morning star" ... it shines, as a reflection of the sun, off the dense cloud-cover on Venus. All the light we see from the morning star comes from the sun, and literally we are beholding sunlight before the coming of the sun.
2Pe 1:19 -
Yes, we have the prophetic Word made very certain. You will do well to pay attention to it as to a light shining in a dark, murky place, until the Day dawns and the Morning Star rises in your hearts.
Jesus brings the Kingdom to us, while it is still far off and invisible. He is the Morning Star, and both the fulfillment and the promise of a greater fulfillment of all that God has to offer His children.
Rev 22 -
16 "I, Yeshua, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the Messianic communities. I am the Root and Offspring of David, the bright Morning Star. 17 The Spirit and the Bride say, 'Come!' Let anyone who hears say, 'Come!' And let anyone who is thirsty come - let anyone who wishes, take the water of life free of charge."
I gaze at Jesus, and know ... there is much more to come! The heart bursts with hopeful expectation!
Here.
Comes.
The.
Dawn.
