Pastor Chris Says
━━━━━━━━━━
This is marvelous! Notice what we just read; it doesn’t say, “The people that walked in darkness shall see a great light”; rather it says, “They’ve seen a great light.” Also, it doesn’t say, “They that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them shall the light shine”; rather it says, “Upon them has the light shined.”
Darkness represents everything that’s evil or puts men in bondage; it represents Satan and all his evil works. But today, in Christ Jesus, all men have been delivered, transferred from the jurisdiction of darkness into the Kingdom of God’s Love-Son.
Colossians 1:13 (NASB) says, “For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son.” If you are in Christ, darkness has no jurisdiction over you. No wonder Jesus said, “…I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12).
Now, you’re in His light, you have His light, and you have become a light in a dark and crooked world (Philippians 2:15). 1 Peter 2:9 says He “…called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.” You are in His marvellous light; light so divine, so intense; the Bible says, “…and the darkness comprehended it not” (John 1:5). Hallelujah!
1 Timothy 6:16 says, God dwells in unapproachable light. This same God, according to 2 Corinthians 4:6, has shined in our hearts. What a Gospel! What a message! This means no more poverty, no more sickness, disease and infirmities; no more death; because all these are associated with darkness.
Maybe there’s been a lingering issue at work, in your family, marriage, health, or with your children. Or perhaps it’s a loved one that’s been suffering terribly; Jesus has taken away the pain. He has remedied the situation; the darkness is over. Receive His Word to you now and act your faith. Hallelujah!
