Morning by Morning, April 28, 2026 — “Radiant”
Good morning, Lord Jesus. Help me begin my day grounded in Your Word and filled with Your Spirit—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit of God. ...
As I wait for Your leading, this word comes to mind: “Radiant.” ...
And now this Scripture:
“Then you shall see and become radiant,
And your heart shall swell with joy...” (Isaiah 60:5).
When we “see,” we become “radiant.” When we see You. When we see who You are and see all You’ve done and see all You’re doing. When we see You in the midst of us, no matter what we’re going through, no matter what’s going on in us or around us—seeing that You’re with us, never leaving us, never forsaking us, but empowering us and pouring out Your grace into us and for us. For “If God is for us, who can be against us!” (Romans 8:31)
To be “radiant” is to shine with the light of Your glory. And the light of Your glory is Your manifest Presence abiding within us, shining through us. To be “radiant” is to radiate Your light, Your love, Your power, Your Presence into our world.
You said You are the light of the world (John 8:12); and You said we are the light of the world (Matthew 5:14). That’s because it’s Your light shining in us, Your light shining through us, radiating through those who are radiant with the Presence of Your Spirit abiding in us—“Christ in (us), the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:27). That’s part of what You meant, I believe, when You said to “let (our) light so shine before men, that they may see (our) good works and glorify (our) Father in heaven” (Matthew 5:16).
Our “good works” are letting the light of the glory of God shine through us, radiating Your nature, Your character, Your heart, Your will through us into our world. We are in You; and You are in us, so that we “shine as lights in the world” (Philippians 2:15)—radiant with the light of Your glory.
So by the power of Your grace moving in me, shining through me, may I join with all Your sons and daughters of God to “Arise, shine; for (our) light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon (us)!” (Isaiah 60:1) In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
