“Here’s another way to put it: You’re here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We’re going public with this, as public as a city on a hill. If I make you light-bearers, you don’t think I’m going to hide you under a bucket, do you? I’m putting you on a light stand. Now that I’ve put you there on a hilltop, on a light stand—shine! Keep open house; be generous with your lives. By opening up to others, you’ll prompt people to open up with God, this generous Father in heaven." (Matthew 5:14-16 MSG)
God decided to place us here on earth to be the light. In the beginning when darkness engulfed the earth, He commanded the Light to shine forth. In this perverse generation, all born again children of God are to be the light. There are different shades of colours in God, but without us shining His light on us, the people of the world will not be able to appreciate them.
God is to be proclaimed everywhere, He is not a secret to be hidden. The first paramount medium of proclaiming Him is by our lives. When we live holy lives, His light will shine through us to everyone around.
We are to go public with the truths of the gospel, living them out and proclaiming them to everyone in every of our interactions with them. When God helps you resolve a challenge, do not go on social media or anywhere else giving glory to critical thinking or anyone or anything else. By doing so, you will be making God a secret. Be excited to share with everyone how praying helps you resolve the matter.
God has made you a light and has prepared a lamp stand for you. When you get on stage, shine Him to everyone. He is bringing you out of obscurity to lamplight. He has risen upon you and your sun will never go down again. He is restoring all you have lost in the past. He is commanding nations to obey you. Therefore, this is not the time to sit on the fence or be undecided about God.
ACTION PLAN: Decide to be on God's side today. He has many things in store for you.
PRAYER: Father, remove every darkness in my life. Let your light shine in and through me. Flood my life with your person.
