THE NARROW WAY DAILY DIGEST
DATE:
Saturday, June 20, 2020.
THEME:
Light Of The World. I.
MEMORY VERSE:
“That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world.”
Philippians 2:15.
TODAY’S TEXT:
1 John 1:5-6
“This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth.”
TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Literarily, light is a source of illumination. Or a flood of luminous rays, which flows from the sun and constitutes a day. In Genesis 1: 5 the Bible says, *”God call the light a day and darkness the night…”* As Christians, we know that light brings about spiritual, physical and mental illumination; it produces enlightenment with useful information.
Meanwhile, our today’s text reveals that God is light and in Him there is no darkness. And if we’re of God, there can be no darkness in us, except we lie and have no truth in us. While Exodus 27:20 says, *”…that they bring thee pure oil olive beaten for the light, to cause the lamp to burn always.”* This connotes that for you and I to continue to burn for God, we must be purged and pure.
Furthermore, our memory verse remind us as children of God to be blameless, harmless, pure and strong as long as we’re in this crooked and perverse world. We must remain lights shining always in order to put an end to darkness around us.
In conclusion, Philippians 2:16 says, *”Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ…”* This speaks of the consistency needed to continue to shine, that we may rejoice in the day of Christ reward. May you not miss your reward in heaven in Jesus name. Amen.
God bless you.
Till He returns or call you home, do remain in the power of His love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.
DAILY CONFESSION:
I am a light of the world. I will continue to shine.
PRAYER POINT:
Father of light and grace, You are the source of my light and life. Help me to remain shining brighter and brighter everyday. And as I shine Lord, send darkness far away from me and my household in Jesus name. Amen.
Yours in Christ,
B. J. Folorunsho.
