…”Darkness was upon the face of the deep and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters and God said, Let there be light and there was light. (Genesis 1:2-3).

In the beginning there was nothing charming and desirable to be seen for the earth was without form and void for darkness was on the face of the deep, so darkness has no glory in light. It was an habitation of confusion and emptiness. This characterise the life of many today, there is disorder, confusion and evil works, it is empty of all goodness and full of darkness. Is your life bombarded with these perils today? The way out is to be born again. (John 3:3-5), so that the God of all grace can work a change within and around you.

The Bible says darkness was on the face of the deep. What this typifies is that darkness was on the surface. Your challenges and present predicament are a phase, they are on the surface, it’s not forever or permanent, whatever you are going through is temporal, its on the surface, it’s not skin deep for the things which are seen that befall men are temporal and subject to change. Folks, in as much you can see the challenge, then I have good news for you that it’s temporal and therefore subject to change if only you will command light therein.

Until light comes- darkness overrides, until light comes- setbacks sets in, until light comes- failure blossoms, until light comes- delay thrives, until light comes- sickness soars and until light comes- oppression continues.

Here’s the gospel of peace that your light has come and stay if like God you will command it, so make up your mind to arise and shine. Keep heaven in your heart and the earth under your feet, are you sleeping arise and shine for your path is a shinning light, so God says to you today, don’t just shine, arise and shine and let your light so shine before men.

Prayer Lines: Father, in any area of my life that darkness is reigning. In the name of Jesus, let there be light.
