MEMORISE:
“ And God said, Let there be light: and there was light "Genesis 1:3
THE MESSAGE:
Let
there be light” could mean “Let the darkness of sin disappear”
because sin is a terrible
form
of Darkness. No one can possess the pure light except
from God,
the Father of lights. The reason is that man was sold to the darkness
of sin as a result of the fall at Eden.
However, God provided
salvation for mankind through His only begotten Son Jesus Christ.
This is why the Bible Says:
Then spake Jesus again unto them,
saying, lam the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not
walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. John
8:12.

The above Scripture simply means that the cure for the darkness of sin is Jesus Christ. Have you been wallowing in the darkness of sin? This new year can make the difference if you will accept Jesus Christ as your Saviour- believing in salvation by His blood (Matthew 1:21). You may claim to have Jesus as your Saviour but have you surrendered to His Lordship? Give the totality of your life to Him today and allow Him to take charge of everything that concerns you (Matthew 11:28-29).

One
important thing to do in order to step out of darkness is to confess
one’s sins and surrender all to Jesus Christ. The Bible says that
if we say we have no sin we are just deceiving Ourselves (1
John 1:8), but if we will swallow our pride, confess and deeide
to forsake our sins, God will forgive us meaning that the light of
God will evershadow us. One sign that indicates we have God’s light
in us is when we shine, and we cannot shine with sin dwelling
Within
us. We are only able to shine when Jesus rules over our
lives. Jesus is the Light and those who live by His standards have
His light within them. This is why Jesus Christ instructs genuine
disciples to shine the light which they possess (Matthew
5:16).
I pray that the light of God will shine upon your life and there shall be no iota of darkness harassing you anymore in Jesus’ name.
PRAYER POINT
Father please let Your light shine Upon Me and deliver me from the power of the darkness of sin in Jesus name
DO HAVE A BLESSED DAY
