It’s the quality of your light that determines the quality of your life. In other words, light quality equals life quality.
John 1:4 KJV
“In him was life; and the life was the light of men”.
There are no lucky men there lighted men. Your life cannot be beautiful than the quality of your light.
Benefits of Light
1). It shatters darkness – darkness does not struggle with light. When light is emitted in full glow darkness has no choice than to bows out (darkness will be shattered) (1Jn.1:5).
1 John 1:5 KJV
“This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.”
2). It facilitates speed – the brighter the light; the clearer the way. The clearer the way; the faster the journey. Darkness causes slow motion in life (Is.40:31).
Isaiah 40:31 KJV
“But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”
In addition, darkness also creates confusion. It makes men to be living by law of accident. A shapeless life, a life without course.
3). Light fosters seeing and seeing establishes dominion. Note: Life does not answers to looking; It answers to seeing. Everyone suffering from shortsightedness is free today in the name of Jesus. Until you can see it don’t expect to have it (Gen.13:15). Whatsoever that you can see from Genesis to Revelation can be yours.
Genesis 13:15 KJV
“For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.”
How to Pursue Light
a). Identify those who are in the light with proofs.
b). Collect and study their materials (tapes or books).
c). Pray and believe God to open your eyes to see what they are seeing.
Wait a minute: Light is light. It doesn’t matter where you got it from. In most cases we get our light through the light of others. (PSM.36:9).
Psalm 36:9 KJV
“For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.”
d). Meditation – The nest you can get when you read the word of God is information (in maximum, this gives you intellectual excitement). However, when you hover upon the deep at creation (If you meditate on the word of God), information transforms into revelation and revelation graduates into illumination (information=revelation=illumination). Manifestation is a function of revelation (Manifestation =(fn)revelation).
Joshua 1:8 KJV
“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.”
Note: the predicament of men can best be understood when these are called blasphemies).
You’re not created to meditate on your problems, you’re created to meditate on the word of God.
e). Pursue light by entering/diving into the word of God. Many people talk about that entrance of the word of God but only few people have mentioned our entrance into the word of God.
Your being a walking bible who can reel off 100 memory verses per seconds is not a proofs of an authentic light’s presence in you. OBEDIENCE works like fire. It’s the key.
James 1:22, 25 KJV
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. [25] But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein , he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
Where your obedience stops is where your light stops and where your light stops is where your dominion stops.
