Imagine inventing this incredible product that changes millions of lives for the good. It’s hailed as revolutionary, stores can’t keep it on the shelves, and Amazon can’t deliver it in two days. Your face would be on social media feed, and people would be begging for you to come on their TV show, podcast, or YouTube channel. Jesus created the world, came as a light for lost people, and the world did not know Him. He is able to enlighten your life.
JOHN 1:9-10
There was the true light which, coming into the world, enlightens every man. He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him.
Missed the Light
Some asked if John the Baptist was the Messiah. He had a fiery personality and was willing to stand up to Herod. The Apostle John sets the record straight by saying he was not the light but came to testify to the light. There was a light that came into the world to enlighten your life. That was Jesus Christ. Sadly, the world doesn’t know Him. The solution to every problem people have is being ignored by those who need it most.
Don’t Hide from the Light
Some Christians hide from the light because they love the darkness. John 3:19 says, “This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil.” Jesus isn’t going to standby and watch you ruin your life. He will come and invade your life with the light to try and expose your sin. If you hide in the shadows, you may evade the light, but it will only get worse.
Enlighten Your Life
Jesus came to enlighten your life. He wants to shine upon you to show you the way out of the darkness of this world and the bondage of sin. He also wants to be the light to your path and the lamp unto your feet. That light will continue to shine down upon you until the day you are in His presence. Look for the Light.
