Glory to God for His mercies and grace to His children, begotten by His grace through faith in the Beloved Son Lord Yeshua, for His gifts of His light and truth by His Spirit through His word.
In a recent reading of John 11:1-10, I was struck afresh by verses 9-10 in particular of my need to keep my eyes upon and seek to follow Yeshua. The verses say this:
‘Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours in the day?
If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
But if one walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”’
It was the underlined words which jumped out to me, leading my thoughts to consider the words of Yeshua elsewhere concerning true light at John 8:12:
‘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.”’
Precious promise! Precious truth!
As things get darker in this present world system, may we always have this truth dwelling with vigour in our hearts that we may take courage and not allow fear to reign in our hearts.
