John
1:5
"And
the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not."
·
You
cannot make yourself the light of the world. Jesus says you are the light of
the world because of your relationship with him.
·
Out
of darkness the light shall shine!’ is the same God who made his light shine in
our hearts, to bring us the knowledge of God's glory shining in the face of
Christ” (2 Corinthians 4:6 TEV).
Ø
Jesus,
who is the light of the world, re-creates us into the light of the world.
Ø
We
are light, not because of anything in ourselves, but because we are in a
supernatural union with the light of the world.
Facts about OUR LIGHT:
1. We
are the product of the LIGHT:
Ø We
are not merely reflectors of Light, but manifestors of light.
Ø
He
calls us to follow after him, and he says,
"Whoever
follows me will have the light of life and will never walk in darkness”
(John 8:12).
2. As Christians, we
need to prove our LIGHTSHIP.
"So that you will prove yourselves to be
blameless and innocent, children of God, above reproach in the midst of a
crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as lights in the world." Phil. 2:15
3. Light has a PATERN
"Therefore do not be partakers with them; for
you were formerly darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children
of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness and righteousness
and truth)".
Eph. 5:7-9
4. No DARKNESS survives in the midst of Light
"And the light
shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not." John 1:5
5. The light has ENERGY
AND POWER because the life of the Son of God, has energy and power.
6. The light has PURPOSE
AND MOTION.
It is not static like
a lamppost or a lighthouse or like a bulb positioned to give a strategic light.
It PLANS
and MOVES.
It shines now here, now there. It is alive with the life of the Son of God.
7. The light GROWS
AND EXPANDS.
That is the way the
life of the Son of God is. His life is a fountain of life [Ps. 36:9]. Once the
rays start coming out of this light, they extend farther and farther and
farther.
8. The light BEGETS
OFFSPRINGS.
"Believe in the
light, that you may become sons of the light." JOHN
12:36
