The supernatural life is a life of peace, joy and absolute bliss! As we realised in last month’s theme, nothing perturbs any individual connected, walking and operating in the spirit! This is because the light of God radiates in and through them and it is that light that dispels every form of darkness. In the words of Martin Luther King Jr, “darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that...” Welcome to this glorious month – March 2020: Keep Shining! The Light shines on in the darkness, and the darkness did not understand it or overpower it or appropriate it or absorb it [and is unreceptive to it] (John 1:5 AMP). I pray that the light of God will dispel and swallow up every issue in your life that constitutes darkness in Jesus name. In Genesis 1:3, God Himself made a proclamation... “Let there be light!” and until this moment darkness has not been able to subdue or overcome light. Matthew 5: 14 gives us a very good perceptive describing you and I as the light of the world therefore exempting us from the effect of darkness. This is in spite of the fact that we live amongst the agents of darkness; our assurance as children of God remains that we cannot be overpowered. Beloved even if everything seems dark around you and gross darkness appears to be looming, do not give in... (Isaiah 60: 2). The One who called you out of darkness is telling you and I to keep shining! I just love the Amplified version of Isaiah 60 verse 1, “Arise [from spiritual depression to a new life], shine [be radiant with the glory and brilliance of the Lord]; for your light has come, And the glory and brilliance of the Lord has risen upon you.” Regardless of the situation, just shine anyway; do not allow anyone or circumstance to dim your light. Shine because the glory of God is upon you! Shine because you are a follower of Jesus and He promises that whosoever follow Him will no longer walk in darkness (John 8:12). Shine because you have a hope and a future (Jer.29:11). Shine because everything is working out for your good (Rom.8:28). To shine your brightest you must be truly who you are meant to be, simply put – be yourself! You must also endeavour to
The more you shine the more you confuse the agents of darkness. NO DULLING; KEEP SHINING IN JESUS NAME. Shalom.
