Scripture John 3: 17-21

God so loved the world that He sent Jesus into the world, not to condemn it, but that the world through Him might be saved. Verse 18 says that the ones who don’t believe are condemned already. Jesus is the light that came into this world but men loved darkness rather than light. The reason for this was because they were doing evil and the darkness hid what they were doing. When Jesus, the light came, he revealed their sin and mankind didn’t like that. Oh how bright Jesus must have seemed in a world that was so corrupt with sin.

It is even worse in the days in which we are living. Every sin imaginable is being committed. Most of which are done under a cover of darkness. People hate their sin being brought into the light and revealed. If there ever was a time when this world is dark with sin, it is today. To some it is just as natural to worship Satan as it is to worship God.

Many people tried and are still trying to put that light out. But, Praise God it is an eternal flame, one that will burn forever. Mankind killed the light, but now it burns brighter than ever. Jesus, the precious Son of God, will burn bright through the countless ages of eternity, whether mankind likes it or not. He is here to stay. I praise God for the time when the light of God came into my life. Oh what a difference He made. You who are born again can say the same.

If you don’t have this light within your life today, you are missing out on the best thing this side of heaven. Confess your sins to Jesus today and ask Him to forgive you and come into your life. Then allow him to drive away all the darkness and fill you with the light of His love.




Jesus is the precious light
That came into our darkest night
Those who accepted Him soon found
The darkness in their lives torn down
