About the name “Daystar” If you look at 2 Peter 1:19 (KJV) understanding it was written in Greek originally…. “Daystar” derives from the Greek word “phosphoros” phos – meaning “light” (Figuratively, meaning moral and spiritual light and knowledge which enlightens the mind, soul or conscience, including the idea of purity, holiness and of consequent reward and happiness.) and phero or phosoros – meaning “to bring” (Figuratively, meaning an absolute sense, a way or gate said to lead somewhere.) This verse in the spiritual sense is referring to that clear and comfortable knowledge of and strong faith in Christ which is the harbinger of an eternal day in life and blessedness. (source: The Complete Word Study Dictionary – New Testament: by Greek Scholar Dr. Spiros Zodhiates Th.D). Peter is referring to Jesus as our “Daystar”. One who brings light to a lost and dying world. Daystar and Morningstar are both names that the Greeks assigned to the Planet Venus because while passing from it’s lower to it’s upper conjunction with the sun, during which time it appears to the west of the sun and consequently rises before it and ushers in the light of day. Thus, “Daystar”. We do know that Lucifer held the TITLE “Daystar”, “Son of the Morning”, and “Morningstar” BEFORE he fell from Heaven but was stripped of any and all titles of honor when he was cast out of heaven. Thus, because of Satan’s decision to destroy mankind to get back at God…. At Calvary Jesus became the light that shineth in the darkness…and mankind was redeemed by His precious blood. Peter felt this description best described everything Jesus would be to us. Satan is reminded of the title and position he lost every time “Daystar” is whispered thru the airwaves as we know He is the prince and power of the air. A Brief History of Daystar Marcus Lamb was raised in Macon, Georgia and began preaching at age 15. By age 19, Marcus had graduated Magna Cum Laude from Lee College. In 1982, Marcus married Joni Trammell of Greenville, South Carolina. They began traveling and ministering in churches in over 20 states. In 1984, following God’s specific guidance, they moved to Montgomery, Alabama to build WMCF-TV 45. In 1985, channel 45 became the first full-power Christian television station in the state. At age 27, Marcus Lamb was the youngest person ever to build a television station in the United States. The Marcus Lamb and Joni Lamb quickly gained recognition as “a new breed of televangelists,” as one CBS News anchor put it. In 1990, they moved to Dallas, Texas to build a new Christian television station. Through a series of miracles and divine favor, KMPX-TV 29 hit the airwaves in 1993 in the Dallas/Fort Worth market of over six million people. In August of 1997, the ministry moved into a new 32,000 sq. ft. studio-office facility.

In December of 2003, Daystar completed its move into its new 90,000 sq. ft. International Ministry Center which includes two state-of-the-art production studios.
