THE LIGHT THAT SHINES OUT OF DARKNESS
(Nuggets from 2 Corinthians 4:6)
In the beginning, GOD COMMANDED LIGHT TO SHINE OUT OF DARKNESS.
Before this time, the world was in utter darkness, but at His command, DARKNESS PRODUCED LIGHT.
What does this tell you?
GOD CREATES SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING.
That thing you wrote off as NOTHING is a RAW MATERIAL in the hands of God. God never writes off anyone or anything, no matter how bad or useless it seems in the sight of men.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. This word is Jesus Christ, the word of God who came into this world in the form of a man.
In Jesus dwells LIFE and this LIFE is the LIGHT OF MEN.
"And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.” John 1:5.
According to Strong’s Concordance, the Greek word for “Shineth” is, ‘phainō’ which means, “TO BRING FORTH INTO THE LIGHT, CAUSE TO SHINE, SHED LIGHT.”
You were sent by God to let His Light shine through you in dark places. Choose to let God’s Light radiate in everything that you both say and do. Let His Light shine through your countenance and communication. Let His Light be revealed in how you lead and handle others. Let His Light be revealed through your work and through your character. Let the Light of God shine through your relationships, both PERSONAL and PROFESSIONAL. Choose to be a VESSEL used by God and let others see His Light shine through your DAILY INTERACTIONS.
You were designed to be light. You were chosen to be light. You were created to be light. Choose to surrender to God and let His Light shine through you even in dark environments.
God sends light where He wants to reveal His Love, Way, and Character. Maybe, you were sent to be the “Difference Maker”. When darkness surrounds you, choose to be light. Choose to reflect Christ. Stay submitted to His Word and let His Light shine through you. Let His Light reveal your love for others. Let His Light display the character and quality of your heart. Choose to let God’s Light shine through your actions.
In places that lack INTEGRITY, choose to reflect God’s Light and His CHARACTER. Submit to His WILL and His Way of doing things.
Lead others through your example. Submit to His Word and Counsel. In environments that lack faith, choose to let God’s Light display your measure of FAITH.
Be the EXAMPLE. Be a Christ-like EXAMPLE.
Be FAITHFUL and OBEDIENT, always ready to SUBMIT to God’s Word.
Shine His Light in the marketplace. Shine His Light in the classroom. Reflect His Light when you're on the bus, at the mall or an event.
Don’t let the darkness in our world today derail your focus and vision or silence your voice. Don’t allow the darkness to muffle your FAITH.
SHINE IN THAT LITTLE CORNER WHERE YOU ARE, LET'S LIGHT UP THIS WORLD TOGETHER.
This is HOLINESS CHALLENGE
