FLASH OR FLOOD LIGHT
John 1:1-18
Without any doubt, word manipulation, argument or baseless debate, it is certain that the amount of light that you carry is what will determine your advancement during any encounter of darkness in your journey of life. The same advancement cannot be expected from one with a flashlight and one with a floodlight in the wilderness of darkness. The advancement with a flashlight will suffer every confrontation that appears from behind or from the side. With a floodlight, however, every devilish confrontation that shows up from the side or from the back will suffer an irreparable failure. What kind of light are you carrying in these days of darkness invasion? For you to continue in the journey of life in a world that darkness rules in every corner, your light must be a fully charged floodlight. You do not want to be avoiding darkness in every step of your journey because the darkness that you avoid is the one that will remain and later hunt you in your journey. Darkness must be approached, confronted and exposed because it is not suppose to be reigning over light. John 1:5, “And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.” What kind of light are you carrying or how much of light is in you that you carry? What He said to them is still being spoken to us. “Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, ‘I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.’” (John 8:12) Jesus is the Light that we need in order to take our journey to the next level without any debate, delay or fear of any confrontation in this dark and wicked world. The Word of God that was in the beginning with God (John 1:2) is the same Word that is the Light of God. The Book of John 1:3-5 describes Him like this, “All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehendit.” Does this shed any light in you about the reason why you have to be carrying a very reasonable light in you? This journey of life is very confrontational and violent; the only effective way to walk through it and be able to win souls that will go along with you in the journey of life is to have light in and outside of you as you journey. Jesus is the true Light that will carry you on a long and successful ride against the operations of this dark world. John 1:9, “That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.” Jesus is the Word of God and He is also the Light. For you to have enough light for the journey, let the Word of God occupy, overwhelm, overtake, reign, rule, and direct your life and you shall have a good success in the journey of life.
