“Walk As a Child of Light”

 
 
walk as children of light
 
 

Genesis 1 :1-3 (DARBY)

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

And the earth was waste and empty, and darkness was on the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

And God said, Let there be light. And there was light.

And God saw the light that it was good; and God divided between the light and the darkness. “

 
 

 

 

One of the first things the living God did during creation was separate the light from the dark. He saw it to be a good thing that light stood out from the darkness. As believers we awaken each morning to that Light, His faithfulness and loving mercies over our lives.   He promises to walk with us, and lead and guide us throughout our day with that divine Light.    Do you think about how blessed you are to be a child of the King?  May we not take for granted that we are forgiven and set free.   There are many people that are still in bondage to the devil and his dark and evil ways, and our hearts need to be toward them. This darkness they live in serves to create confusion and lack of direction.   Oh how well I remember how my life was so void of life, light and love before He totally transformed my life.   Darkness in one’s life can bring great depression and lack of hope to a soul. For such a time as this, we are called to be lights in the midst of darkness. He is watching for those that desire to shine like a light because He has been given us the Light that never grows dim.

 
 

Psalm 112:4 The Voice 
“When life is dark, a light will shine for those who live rightly— those 
who are merciful, compassionate, and strive for justice.”

 
 

 

 
Have you ever lost electricity with no warning?   It is amazing how helpless you can feel because you cannot see anything in front of you.   As you carefully make your way to wherever your flashlights or candles are, it is always amazing how even the smallest of light will dispel the darkness around you.  The light that we shine as believers is the same way.   Never underestimate the Lord Jesus using you
in the midst of one’s darkness.  
 
 
Lord, today we ask You for Your help as we live in a world where there are many that are lost and do not know You.    Their world is dark and they are deceived.   May we be sensitive and be willing to be used as You call upon us.  May we show the light of Your truth and love to all that need it.   In Jesus Name we ask this. Amen
