GOD IS LIGHT

This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. [1 John 1:5]

God shines the light of His glory all around us. His light enables us to see morally, emotionally and spiritually. Because of His unconditional love and grace we can find our way safely home through this dark world of sin. Let His light shine in your heart today and the darkness of this lost and dying world will flee before you.

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. [James 1:17]

I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness. [John 12:46]

The LORD is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life---of whom shall I be afraid? [Psalm 27:1]

The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. [Revelation 21:23]

For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light. [Psalm 36:9]

A glimpse of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ causes in the heart a supreme, genuine love for God. This is because the divine light shows the excellent loveliness of God’s nature. [Jonathan Edwards]
