GoodNews Daily Devotional 11 October 2021 By Uebert and Bebe Angel
TOPIC: Illuminate Your World
SCRIPTURE: 1 Thessalonians 5:5, – For ye, are all children of the light, and children of the day; and are not children of the night, and children of darkness.
The sun and the moon have a wonderful relationship. The moon isn’t a light; it’s a very black substance, and yet it reflects the light it gets from the sun. So sometimes, we say we’re like the moon, while Jesus gives us light to reflect. This is a powerful idea, but it’s not the best. God doesn’t regard us as the moon that reflects the light of the sun. Yes, the Bible says Jesus Christ is the Sun of righteousness (Malachi 4:2), but who are we?
In the verse above, the Spirit, writing through the Apostle Paul, was addressing Christians; He’s talking to you, and He minces no words in describing you. He says you’re light! You’re born of God, of His Word, which is light, so you’re the offspring of Light. The Spirit expresses the same thought in Ephesians 5:8. It reads, “For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light” (NIV). How interesting this is! It doesn’t say you were in the darkness; it says you were darkness, but now, you’re light. This means you can also declare with audacity, as Jesus did, “As long as I’m in the world, I’m the light of the world!”
When those in the world say “there is light at the end of the tunnel”, as for you child of God you shall say I’m the light in the tunnel and I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. If you wait for the light at the end of the tunnel, the darkness in the tunnel will swallow you (John 1:4).
PROPHETIC DECLARATION
I am the light of the world. I shine forth effusively, illuminating my world with glory and virtue. Through me many are turning to Christ, are transferred from darkness into God’s marvelous light,
and from the power of Satan unto God. Praise God!
