Word for Today: Light (5)-True light and false light.
Ministry of the Word(MOW) : True Spirituality
Memory Verse
“That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world” ( John 1:9).
Dearly Beloved
If there is true light, it stands to reason that there is false light. John gave a testimony of Jesus as the true light that lights every man that cometh into the world .
A big question is how do you know if a particular light is true or false ? The answer is in 1John 4:1:
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world” (1John 4:1)
The challenge with many Christians is that they do not having discerning spirit. They jump at everyone whose title is ‘pastor’, ‘evangelist’ or ‘apostle’. There are true apostles and there are false apostles (2Corinthians 11:13). The only way you can differentiate them is with the word of God in your heart and in your spirit.
All that glitter are not gold. Satan and his ministers can present as false light in order to deceive people. The Word says:
“And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works” (2Corinthians 11:14-15).
There is no darkness in Christ Jesus. Make the word of God your number one priority and see how impossible it is for any man to quench your light. No one can ever put off the true light in Christ Jesus.
“Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee” (Isaiah 60:1).
Have a Spirit-filled week.
Thank you Jesus
Prayer
Dear Father, we pray for everyone sincerely connected to your Word, that they may enjoy true light in your word and be able to expose every agent of darkness in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
Yours in the Vineyard of Christ.
