Walking in the Light
John I: 4-5
In him was life and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in the darkness, and the darkness apprehended it not.
The light is Christ who is the light that has come to dispel the darkness of ignorance and sin. Does darkness want to lay hold of light? No. Where light is the darkness can no longer remain. The secret to overcoming sin, ignorance and the darkness that filled our hearts as a result is to let Christ fill every part; every nook and cranny and closet of our hearts. Where He is, darkness has no place.
God’s Word and Holy Spirit are the guardians of our mind, heart, soul and spirit. As we openly, minute by minute invite the Holy Spirit of God to abide in us and search us for any unclean or “dark” place He illuminates us with His grace and begins the process of unseating the strongholds of darkness that don’t want to be expelled. It is my will submitted to His that is my strength. I can not do it without Him. Roman 8:13 “If you live after the flesh you must die: but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, we shall live.” Life is Christ. “In Him we live and move and have our being” Acts 17:28a
