Dear God-tracker

GOD-TRACKING IS CONSISTANTLY LIVING THE LIGHT

1 Corinthians 2:18
And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord,[c] are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.

 

Jesus once said, “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” Also, by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, Paul instructs the Ephesians to not live under the wiles of the world in dark decay but rather to live in the light of God, exposing the corruption of the world. He says, “At one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light.” And to the Thessalonians Paul writes, “For you are all children of light, children of the day.” In 2 Corinthians we read how when Moses came down from Sinai he needed to veil his face, because he shone with the brilliance of God. It goes on to say that, through the work of Christ, that veil has been removed. In other words, the light of God, which comes from within each true Bible believing Christian, is free to shine through our lives

Imagine you’re facing a dazzling car headlight on full beam. I’m sure you’ll agree that the light might hurt your eyes, perhaps even be offensive to you. Now imagine taking a thick heavy blanket and covering that headlight. At last, as the light is covered, your eyes can rest. However, not only have you veiled the luminescence of that halogen light bulb but you have also removed the source of light that enables you to see all around you. Not only so, but that light is still shining as intensely as it always has... under the veil!

Dear God-tracker, you are that headlamp, shining bright. That light in you comes from the glory of the Holy Spirit. This light exposes works of darkness. This light reveals the love, grace and holiness of God; it’s the source of spiritual luminescence that enables those around you to see their way to God. However, dear child of Light, this light will also offend those around you who walk in darkness, because it hurts their depraved spiritual eyes. Therefore, they may try to cover your light with a veil, but, even so, they will never prevent your light from burning. You may find you are being ridiculed for your faith or bullied because you call yourself a born again Christian. You may find the devil trying to snuff out you light by covering up what you believe about homosexuality, creation, promiscuity or about Jesus being the only way to God. You may feel as though the world is attempting to cover-up their sin by trying to conceal your standing for God’s truth. But remember your light will always be burning, even under that cover! And whenever they lift the edge of that veil to peak inside, they will be dazzled once again by God’s brilliant light coming from within you!

God-tracking is consistently living the light.

Keep on shining

2 Corinthians 3:12-18

Don’t Give Up, Look Up!

Lord, help me to be strong as I choose to consistently shine your light even under the veil of indifferent secularisation

Pray
 “Father God, thank you so much for your light that shines in and through me. Because of what Jesus did for me at Calvary, all my sin has been atoned for. Therefore, as I have confessed my sinful darkness to you, you have replaced it with your righteous light. That light is in me! I lay claim to that light and choose to reflect your glory into the world around me, no matter how they may react. Some may accept your light and turn from their darkness while others may attempt to veil the light that shines from my life, because of their guilt. Lord, help me to be strong as I choose to consistently shine your light even under the veil of indifferent secularisation. I will always shine for your glory, Lord! Amen.”
