Be Light


““The people who were sitting (living) in [spiritual] darkness have seen a great Light, And for those who were sitting (living) in the land and shadow of [spiritual and moral] death, Upon them a Light has dawned.”

Matthew 4:16 Amplified






Where does darkness ‘go’ when light comes?

It is overcome by the light.

Light and darkness cannot share the same space.

The Gospel of John tells us:

“In Him was life [and the power to bestow life],

and the life was the Light of men.

The Light shines on in the darkness,

and the darkness did not understand it or

overpower it or appropriate it or absorb it [and is unreceptive to it].”

John 1:4-5 Amplified

We are to be light in a dark world.

We are to shine on in that darkness.

We may be misunderstood but darkness cannot overpower the light that is in us.

That light is Jesus Christ.

Look for those opportunities to be light today.

Let your light shine in the dark places.
