ECLIPSE
Category : Gospel , Uncategorized , Words of Wisdom - Biblical Truth
Few things spark as much deep thought and reflection as seemingly visible supernatural events in the physical atmosphere around us. The solar eclipse on August 21, 2017 was beautiful and amazing! Many said they felt small in the big scheme of things, and many had emotional responses to the wonder of the sun being blocked out during the day and all that could be seen and taken in during those moments. It was stunning. Some even received revelation from our Father who created these celestial bodies of a new beginning to a bright future in relationship with Him.
One thing I noticed during the totality of the eclipse was that even though there was an approximately 93% eclipse of the sun in my location, it was still quite light outside… The spiritual correlation here is what I am writing about today. The light of Jesus is so bright that it doesn’t take much to illuminate a situation, and He has made us to be the light of the world – Matthew 5:14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. We have been given the ministry of reconciling others to our Father so we must let our light shine in order for that to happen.
Darkness is simply the absence of light – it is a lie, and the light is the truth. We have the Spirit of truth in us, and the lies of the enemy should be exposed when we walk into a room. No one ever walks into a dark room and says hey – turn down the darkness! That doesn’t work. We walk into the room and turn on the light, and this is what should happen when we are around. We shed the light of Truth on every dark lie that is spoken around us or to us. If we remain in constant communion with Jesus, one person can light up a whole building. Just like 7% of the sun still makes it look like daytime outside, one person can change the whole atmosphere in a room! We have the light of Jesus in us and that can never be completely eclipsed by darkness. He is greater, and His light will always illuminate and obliterate the dark.
