Topic: The Implication Of Being The Light Of The World [Thursday June 28, 2018]
Scripture: Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Matthew 5:14-16
Thought For The Day: Being the light means anywhere you step into, things and people are upgraded.
Our Anchor Scripture makes it clear that every child of God is the light of the world. This means, every child of God is light in motion or mobile light. As children of God, we are designed to exist as light in our generation.
Therefore, it is important to look at the function of light:
Light is Critical for Generational Transformation
Light equals development. The difference between the developed and the developing countries is the availability of power or light. Light is a transformer of generations. So, as a Christian, being the light of the world means you are the transformer of you family and the developer of your community and nation. Your appearance equals development, progress, advancement and revolution in your generation. Being the light implies that anywhere you step into, things and people are upgraded.
It is an abomination of creation if things degenerate in your workplace because of your ineptitude. As a child of God, people should know what progress is all about when they see you, they should know what development means by observing your exploits. Anyone who is related or associated with you should be upgraded in life. As a married person, the life of your spouse should be upgraded because of you; your spouse should be organised, co-ordinated, transformed, translated, and transmogrified because of you.
You are the light of the world! You are the revolution your generation is waiting for! You are the transformer of your generation! Everywhere you arrive, revolution or transformation becomes natural.
Beloved, live in the reality of being the light to your generation. Let there be a change that transmits light to your generation, nation, community and family members. Make up your mind not to add to the darkness of this world by the way you live.
Remember this: Being the light means anywhere you step into, things and people are upgraded.
