The Night
We can be a candle, or we can be a torch, but we should all be like John, who was a burning and shining light! The Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is the torch, the lighthouse, the killer of darkness, for a lost and dying world. The saints of Almighty God are here to "Light The Night."
"Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the
heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness,
like the stars for ever and ever."
(Daniel 12:3)
Planet earth is grower darker and darker, but there's good news to behold, because the Church of the living God is grower brighter and brighter! From North to South and East to West, we can feel a new wind blowing; it's the wind of the Spirit raining power and Glory on a dry, parched, barren land of lost and starving people searching for the reaching hand of God. Sooner or later, every soul will kneel before Him and call Him LORD! "Him, who?" you ask. He is Jesus Christ our Lord, the Holy One of Israel, the Savior of the world, the Lily of the valley, the bright morning star, the Creator of all things, The One true and only God, our soon coming King!
"And we have the word of the prophets made more certain,
and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light
shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the
morning star rises in your hearts."
(2 Peter 1:19)
What should one do in this shaking, rocking, fighting, terror ridden, storming world? Get out the roadmap, and follow the appointed route ... the Holy Bible! The Lord left detailed instructions of what has happened, what is happening, and what will happen. Prophecy is still in operation, and it is unfolding with astute accuracy from the roaring words of Prophetic voices of the Bible to the powerful Prophetic voices today, as the light of God's Word fills the whole earth.
"The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn,
shining ever brighter till the full light of day."
(Proverbs 4:18)
The Lord Jesus said in John 8:12, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." Have you ever felt as though you were filled with darkness, surrounded by darkness, sitting in darkness? Come to the light ... come to Jesus Christ the Lord! Receive Him as your Savior, repent of your sins, ask Him to fill you with His Spirit and speak with tongues, be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and experience the most glorious, beautiful, peaceful light you have ever known!
The more people walking in the light, the lighter and brighter our world becomes! We're all fires of the omnipotent Flame! We can only dispel the darkness by the proliferation of being filled with the flame and pouring fire to fire! And, soon the darkness will have trouble with its ebony torment, because the burning flares of Glory will cover the world and "Light The Night!"
