God is light, and in Him is no darkness, we also are children of light.
Why do we feel we have to add to God's words?
His words stand on its own. I hear this every once in a while, from well meaning preachers.
Trying to make God's word more palatable.
It is already palatable, it needs no help.
Psalm 119:103
How sweet are Your words to my taste, Sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Isaiah 8:20
To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.
Keep it simple, God did.
A missionary years ago at a house meeting, said to us, KISS. we said what is that he said "Keep it simple stupid."
Don't use big words to cause confusion.
John 8:12
Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying
"I am the light of the world, He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.
Do we have the light of Jesus in us? YES! According to God's word we have the light of life.
The Holy Spirit is the writer and interpreter of God's word. We do not need to add to His meaning.
The Holy Spirit is the teacher. He wrote it so that even the simple can understand it.
Psalm 119:105
Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.
If what you hear does not measure up to God's word, then it is not truth.
Light produces life, when the daylight dawns the plants grow. When we hear truth of God's word and apply it, we grow.
We have to have the light of God's word. It is alive, powerful as we read it, speak it, and pray it, it will produce more light to walk in.
Ephesians 5:8
For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord.
Walk as children of light.
I read a testimony of an X witchdoctor, who was now saved.
He told when he was a witchdoctor that he would go in the spirit to torment people.
He said one evening he was going to torment a family and as he approached the house it was all lit up with light.
He found out later, after being saved, that a band of Christians had come to share Jesus with this family, He said he could do no harm to them because of the light. He couldn't approach the light.
Beloved, in the spiritual world the enemy sees us as lights.
1John 1:4-9
And these things we write to you that your joy may be full.
This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare it to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.
If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from ALL sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Beloved, we are beings of light when we were born again of God's Spirit, God's light entered us.
If people are appointed to salvation because of loved ones prayer, they will run to you.
We had this happen in Home Depot one day, my husband and I went to get paint and a man ran up to us and started confessing his sins to us.
We had nothing that said we were Christians, but in the spirit realm they know who we are.
We prayed with this man, and took him aside and ministered to him. He hugged us and went on his way.
Those filled with Satan will run from us, those filled with guilt and shame will run to us.
People are confused and fearful right now, we have the answers for their peace of mind. It is JESUS!
Share where you can and as you are led by the Holy Spirit. Time is running out and soon the Lord will come for His bride.
We must be about our Father's business, and reach those who God has appointed to salvation. Anyone that is hungry for God can come in, those who are heavily burden can come, whosoever will may come. It is their choice.
John 11:9-10
Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
But if one walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.
Matthew 5:14-16
You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.
LET YOUR LIGHT SO SHINE BEFORE MEN,
THAT THEY MAY SEE YOUR GOOD WORKS AND GLORIFY YOUR FATHER IN HEAVEN.
Beloved, realize that every where you go is your mission field. Every place you set your feet is holy ground because of Jesus living in you.
We are to bring light into other peoples darkness, so that they will know Jesus is our Savior and that He loves them also.
He died in their place and paid for all their sin. He invites them to come and be born again and have their being full of the light of Christ.
God Bless your day
Jesus loves you
Love in Jesus
Joy
