Can you see the light?

Knowledge and wisdom is only good and effective if we use and apply it. King David asked God to give him understanding of his precepts and guiding principles so that he could meditate and focus his thoughts on them. This is important because most people are deceived and think that what they are being taught by TV, their professors, their friends and family is the absolute truth. There is also a strong re-education and brainwashing taking place on a national level where some in high places are forcing us to believe a strong delusion and lie. It is more important than ever that we ask God to “open the eyes” of our understanding so that we can truly walk in the “light” of God’s wisdom and understanding. Have you been taking what you know and what you are being taught as “truth”? Or are you observing the strong winds of change with open eyes? I counsel you to ask God to give you understanding of His guiding principles so that you can truly walk in the “light” of His knowledge and help others to “see the light”.

Psalm 119: 27 (AMP) “Make me understand the way of Your precepts (guiding principles), So that I will meditate (focus my thoughts) on Your wonderful works”.

It’s time to shine!

The Lord Jesus taught that we are the light of the world (Matthew 5:14). However, He reminds us in verse 16 that we need to let our light shine before men. So this is actually not an automatic process. We can actually hide our light which displeases our Lord. When we choose to let our light shine, people will begin to see “our light”. It’s interesting to note that the light that people actually see is our good works. This means that our life work reveals something to the world. Light reveals things that were previously hidden from view. So our godly works reveal God’s goodness and love to those around us who hadn’t seen it before. It causes them to glorify our Father in Heaven. So it’s vital that we determine to let our light shine instead of hiding our light. It’s time to shine people!!!

Matthew 5:16Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven”
