As sons and daughters of Light, we tend to take Darkness for granted. There are times when we are afraid of the dark, there are times we shun the dark, there are times we are ashamed of being in the dark…or even left in the dark.

There will be periods when our circumstances seem to be bright and crystal to us. There will also be times when circumstances are not so clear, or even hidden in complete darkness.

But as barriers of His Light, we are called to shine in this world of darkness. We shine the brightest, when we are in the dark. Being in the dark does not make us dark, neither does it dim our light. In fact, we appear even brighter than we do in the day. God’s Grace and Glory becomes more obvious to those who are trying to see and find their way in the dark. We also become more conscious and aware of God’s power when we are navigating in darkness; His Light will seem even more precious than it ever can be compared to daytime. We will realize how important His Light is and how it is significant for us to be the Light of the world, when we encounter darkness.

The Light of Jesus in us will never be extinguished. He will shine brighter and brighter till the whole world is lit. You are called to be one of the innumerable light bearers. You are honoured by God to be the Light in this world. The same light that radiates warmth, energy and direction.

Whichever fraction of darkness you occupy in, take heart, for Jesus is with you, He will be there to keep you bright and burning.

— Colin Lagerwall

 For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus’ sake.

 For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

— 2 Corin 4:5-6

As long as we remain as the Head only and not the tail, the world will always try to bring us down. Darkness detest the Light but God will shine His light in the midst of our darkness. We may be cast down but unconquered

For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us.  We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.

— 2 Corin 4 6-9

— Psalm 18:28

You are the flame and the oil of anointing. 

You are the light that uncovers whatever that is in the darkness. 

dearly, deeply and He will never ever ever ever, give up on you till you have been returned into His arms of unconditional love :) He knows that’s where you’ll feel most at home, He knows that’s where you can truly be yourself and be at rest with the peace that your soul has been seeking.

God has done EVERYTHING for you to be home in His arms and for Him to make His home in you :) Yes God wants to unleash His fullness of love in you, to make you His home and sanctuary. you are never too broken for our God to save you. Nothing is too hard, too evil for our Lord to conquer. Every forces of darkness bow at the feet of our Lord Jesus because Jesus alone conquered death and just He is ALIVE today, He holds the keys of death and life. Death can no longer come near you. God can unlock that prision in you, the potential in you that has been raging to be let loose. He can, He is willing and need to do is to say yes and you’ll never be bounded again. You have been set free by His grace and you’ll remain free by His grace :) You are now in Him, ALIVE and free from death and destruction. Freedom is here, beloved. Freedom is your blood-bought right :)

Revelation 1:18
I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.

Revelation 22:17
And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.

If the light of the gospel (2 Corin 4:4) is not glorious or powerful, why would the devil blind our minds and veil our hearts ? — Joseph Prince

It is precisely the gospel is just so awesomely glorious, the devil tries to hide the world away from God’s truth.

Grace shines light out of darkness. Grace shines as the light of truth in our hearts to the world so that we will come to understand God :)
