LIGHT SPECTRUM TRANSFER

 

Colossians 1:13

 

"He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son." ESV 

 

Since the fall of man, we have been held in captivity by the forces of evil and of self-satisfaction. We have literally been held prisoners in a cursed world. After so long a time in this condition, we have become adapted and accepting of it as normal. However, when we are drawn to the Lord by the Holy Spirit and we accept Him, our eyes are opened to His Light that shines on the truth of our depraved and lost condition. We can also see the glorious realm of God's Kingdom that is now ours through the blood of Jesus Christ. What an amazing rescue!

 

Lord, how we thank You for the wonderful gift of salvation from darkness to knowledge of the Truth through Jesus Christ. Anoint us to be Your light so that we can speak and live the Truth to those who still walk in darkness and they can choose to have their eyes opened to You. In Your name we pray, Amen.

REVENGE DOESN'T LIVE AT OUR HOUSE

  Proverbs 20:22 

"Do not say, 'I will repay evil;' wait for the Lord, and he will deliver you." ESV

 

 

When we have been hurt, and terrible injustice has been done to us, our natural response is to get even. If we follow our natural inclination to get even, we only turn ourselves into the same kind of person that wronged us. Instead, God says to do nothing, but wait on Him. He will make sure we are vindicated. He will cause the one who harmed us to reap what was sown.

 

Heavenly Father, oh how we need Your grace when we have been hurt by others. Help us to rise above our human natures and leave revenge to You. We trust in You to take care of all these situations for us. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.

PERFECT SECURITY SYSTEM

 

1 Samuel 17:37

 

"And David said, 'The Lord who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.' And Saul said to David, 'Go, and the Lord be with you!'" ESV

 

One of the major reasons many of us are weak in faith is that we do not allow our encouragement to come from God. Rather, we listen to the voices without and within about the dangers, the impossibilities, the pointless trying. We have the choice to do as David did. He acknowledged that God delivered him before from horrifying dangers. He declared again when faced with even more danger, that God would do as He had always done, deliver him in victory. And God did, just as David believed by faith.

 

Heavenly Father, we pray that our faith will increase as we draw encouragement from You and the Word as we recall the times You have rescued us in the past. We pray in Jesus' name, Amen.
