From Darkness to Light…
The people who walk in darkness will see a great light. For those who live in a land of deep darkness, a light will shine. -Isaiah 9:2
4 The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it. 9 The one who is the true light, who gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. -John 1:4-5, 9
Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.” -John 8:12
4 Prayers for Light:
1. SAVE me
I have come as a light to shine in this dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark.
-John 12:46
2. SHOW me
Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path. -Psalm 119:105
3. SHAPE me
So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image. -2 Corinthians 3:18
4. SEND me
You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden…let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father. -Matthew 5:14, 16
For once you were full of darkness,
but now you have light from the Lord.
So live as people of light!
-Ephesians 5:8
