Let It Shine

1John 1:5 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.

Darkness and light cannot co-exist. The point of reconciliation between God and man is man's acknowledgement of his sin and acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord. We must not remain at the point of acceptance, but we must grow in faith, in obedience to God's word and unto perfection. Those who are not walking in the light are abiding in death. Those who claim to have fellowship with God but continue to practice sin deceived themselves.

Those who enjoy genuine fellowship with God, metaphorically speaking," walk in the light." This does not mean that they are perfect or sin free, but they let the light reveal the sin in their lives, and then turn away from that sin. Those who walk in the light have fellowship both with God through the confessing and cleansing of their sins and with other believers. People do sin and all that say they don't is calling God a liar, when Gods word is active in your life you will confess your sins and not deny them. Truly knowing Jesus Christ is having a practical daily devotion and obedience to the Father's words. So let us live with the light on and experience the full love of God..

Many profess to walk  in the light yet they live a life that don't put Jesus on display. It is easy to tell someone how they should live, but God is calling us to show others how to live by living a life before man that is pleasing to Him. A life complete with self denial and sacrifice. Let all who profess Christ, lift Him up as we walk in His marvelous light..
