Shine in your world

shineinyourworld

 

Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid (Matthew 5:14).

As children of God, we are supposed to shine in our world. Why are we supposed to shine? It is simply because of our identity as stated in the opening scripture. We are the light of the world therefore we have the ability to shine and we must shine. That ability to shine is already deposited in our spirits so we can effortlessly shine in this world.

As light, we give direction and meaning to the world. As light, we are able to see deeper and expose the true nature of things. Light can be switched off and on. In other words, you can decide to exercise the ‘light ability’ in you are let it stay dormant. Being dormant is not the best for us because we have been instructed to let our light so shine before men, that they may see your good works…. (Matthew 5:16). Shining light always produces good works!

Demonstrate your good works to the world. Develop yourself in the word of God and in circular education and bless the world by identifying need(s) and solving them. The world will always celebrate excellent achievers because many challenges in this world are looking for solutions. Shine in your world. God bless you.

OVERCOME THE WORLD

ID-100123059

These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world (John 16:33)

The world is full of uncertainty and fear. A lot of people are going through challenges such as sicknesses, bitterness, heart breaks, unsuccessful marriages and lack of income to take care of family members and so on. Indeed, we are told in scripture that these things will happen.

However, in spite of all these challenges, Jesus Christ assured us of peace that surpasses human comprehension. With this peace, we are able to focus on His word as the source of life and consequently bring about positive changes.

Why are we able to bring about positive changes? – Because Jesus has overcome the world on our behalf. We act in His stead to make the world a better place to live in. Let us always continue to be of good cheer and affect the world positively through His word.

WE HAVE THE SAME GLORY

ID-100145731

And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one (John 17:22).

The child of God is so privileged to have the same glory of Jesus Christ. This is awesome- that as sinners who have been saved, we will have the same glory of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ died for us and restored us to a better glory than that which was on Adam. That is why the bible says that sin cannot have dominion over us (Romans 6:14). Glory is light; beauty; and that which makes us supermen or superwomen. The glory of God makes us unique and all that we do benefits us and the people around us. With the glory of God, we can do so much more in this world with little effort and make the world a better place to live in.

A GOOD MAN…..

ID-100134638A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things (Matthew 12:35).

Can you imagine a world full of good men? The implication is that, the world will be full of good things! The opposite happens when we have a world full of evil men. Let us work towards a world of having more good people and we will all enjoy our stay in this world. It matters very much how we condition our spirits because the state of our spirits determine whether we can bring forth good things or evil things.
