« Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light »
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.
3 Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
4 And God saw that the light was good. Then he separated the light from the darkness.
5 God called the light “day” and the darkness “night.” And evening passed and morning came, marking the first day.
The first challenge that confronted the earth was darkness and this is what God first dealt with in the creation story, according to Genesis chapter one.
May the Lord deal with every form of darkness that has hitherto plagued your life in Jesus name.
When an individual gropes in darkness, he or she is likely to fall into a pit and thereby end his or her life prematurely.
In other words, darkness is potentially harmful.
This is why there must be light and there will be light in your life today, in Jesus name.
God said let there be light and there was light (Genesis 1:3).
One lesson we must quickly learn here is that it was when God spoke His word that the miracle of light occurred.
Many modern-day Christians close up their hearts to the word of God.
This is the reason many are in the Church for years and their lives remain the same.
They came sick and remain sick; they came bound and remain bound.
What a waste of opportunity!
My prayer is that the word of God will penetrate your life today and you will experience the miracle of the light of the Living God.
When there is darkness, there can be no positive activity.
God knew this and that was the reason He first tackled the problem of darkness when He created the earth.
The devil represents the darkness in this world and that is why you need the light of God.
Revelation 12:12 AMB says
« Therefore rejoice, O heavens and you who dwell in them [in the presence of God]. Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has come down to you in great wrath, knowing that he has only a short time [remaining]!” »
When there is no activity because of darkness, stagnation is inevitable.
When God says Let there be light, it could mean the recovery of sight to the blind.
It could mean healing to the sick or the coming of a joyous morning, according to Psalms 30:5.
Let there be light could mean the end of suffering and disappointment.
Thus, if you are reading this devotional and are yet to come into the light of God in Jesus Christ, today is the day of salvation, healing, breakthrough, and deliverance; now is the acceptable time (2 Corinthians 6:2).
You need the light of God today.
Go for it in prayer.
Prayer focus: Father, please send Your Light into my life today, in Jesus name.
