The True Light That Gives Light To Everyone

                  The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world - John 1:9. 

God is light

              Our God is the light of all mankind and in Him there is no darkness at all. God is light, and in him is no darkness at all - 1 John 1.5.  In Him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it  -John 1:4-5. I am the light of the world - John 8:12. I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness - John 12:46. 

From darkness to light

             Our God who is the true light came to the world to give us light and to deliver us from darkness into His marvelous light. For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,”made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ - 2 Corinthians 4:6. But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light - 1 Peter 2:9. 

Walk as children of light                             

            We can walk as children of light and not in darkness if we follow God who is the light. For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light  (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth),  finding out what is acceptable to the Lord - Ephesians 5:8,9. I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life - John 8:12.

Be a light 

                Let our light shine before all. I have set you as a light to the Gentiles, That you should be for salvation to the ends of the earth - Acts 13:47. You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven - Matthew 5:14, 16.                                                                                     

PRAYER: Dear Lord, You are the true light. We thank You for coming into the world to give us light and to deliver us out of the darkness into Your marvelous light. Let our light shine before all. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
