I’m afraid of the dark. I don’t need a nite light when I sleep and love to watch TV in the dark but other then that not a fan. The unknown lurks in the dark. As children it was the boogie man under the bed or a monster of some sort hiding in the closet.
As adults our darkness is still the unknown. Darkness can reign everywhere; our hearts, minds, addictions, attitudes and moods. We might fear tomorrow and what else it may bring. Our world is in a major turmoil, possibly you fear the dark battle within our government. Darkness can seep in and destroy a marriage, a career, your health and your life.
Darkness is like a thick heavy fog, it moves in slowly, silently, it’s clingy moisture starts to settle in and before you know it you are surrounded. The scenery that what once familiar now has a ghostly feel to it and shadows have taken over. Sound like a place in your world or heart?
Acts 26:18 NCV “to open their eyes so that they may turn away from darkness to the light, away from the power of Satan and to God.”
John 11:10 NCV “But if anyone walks at night, he stumbles because there is no light.”
John 8:12 NCV “Later, Jesus talked to the people again, saying, ‘I am the light of the world. The person who follows me will never live in darkness but will have light that gives life.”
I hope the next time you feel the darkness start to creep in or possibly you are smack in the middle of it right now. Simply say this short prayer: “In the name of Jesus Christ, Satan get behind me, you have no power here. Jesus, please shine your light upon me, show me your way.” Help me find my way out of this darkness and into your life giving light. In your glorious name I give thanks, Amen!”
Philippians 2:10 NCV “so that every knee shall bow to the name of Jesus-everyone in heaven, on the earth and under the earth.” Did you catch that last line… “Under the Earth…” yep, this means you too Satan…
Jesus is our light that never dies or goes out…I hope you will let him shine his love and light down on you. Have a blessed day. It’s Sunday…my favorite day! Be peaceful today, you deserve it! Thank you for joining me today, I hope to see you again tomorrow.🥰
