SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY
Ye are the light of the world… Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven (Matthew 5:14,16).
Light is that which describes; it gives direction. Light doesn’t argue with darkness; it simply shines and dispels darkness. You’re the light of the world; that means your presence in any environment dispels darkness and brings enlightenment. It brings guidance and reveals truth.
Your life as a Christian is meant to expose deception, bring hope, and illuminate the path of righteousness for others. God expects His glory in you to radiate through every part of your daily living. He wants His life and righteousness to be visible through your words, your conduct, your love-walk, and through your witnessing.
Notice again the profundity of the Master’s statement about you: “Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven” (Matthew 5:14-16).
Refuse to be a hidden Christian. Let your faith speak. Let your compassion lead. Let your words, actions and outlook on life reflect your convictions about Christ and His glorious Gospel. Even those who are yet to read the Bible should read Christ in you, for you’re His Epistle (2 Corinthians 3:3). You’re the effulgence of His glory.
Therefore, illuminate your world, your environment and the lives of those around you with the life and light of Christ that’s in you. Isaiah 60:1 declares, “Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.” This isn’t optional; it’s a divine mandate. God has made you a burning and a shining light. So light up your world with the Gospel of His truth, righteousness and grace. Hallelujah!
PRAYER/CONFESSION
Dear Father, thank you for making me the light of the world. I shine brightly in my world today, illuminating lives with your love, truth and grace. My light draws men to Christ and glorifies you always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
