The Light

Passage : 1 John 1

"This is the message we have heard from him and declare from you: God is light; in him there is not darkness at all." 1 John 1:5

Light represents what is good and true and holy. Indeed light personifies GOD. In His presence there is no darkness, not even a shadow for He is light! (qwcd). If we are sitting in a dark room we wont be able to see the dust and dirt in that room. But when we turn on a bright light we will start to see all the dust and dirt in the room. And we will start to clean it because we cant live in a room that is filled with dirt and filth. When we go into the presence of the LORD, His light does its work in our lives, it exposes our sins. Thank goodness it does not end there, for once our sins have been exposed, we can confess them and Jesus' blood can be applied on our behalf. And once we have been cleansed and when we kneel in the presence of God and all that His light exposes is the beautiful robe of Christ's righteousness that covers us and our sins. How grateful we should be for His light in our lives! It is a light that brings life! (qwcd).

God is a light of righteousness and when we ask his light to shine in our lives every passing second of our lives. His light will shine so bright that no sin can dwell in us. God is a good and true and holy God. We should ask God everyday to expose to us our sins so that we might confess then and be forgiven and right in relationship with God. Jesus Christ blood that was shed for us and our sins is very powerful. It brings life to all who come to Christ Jesus. Ask and Allow Gods light to shine in your lives and let the Blood of Christ wash you clean and protect it.
