Christmas- And God saw the light of Christ was good!

KING of Jeshurun Devotions on Gen 1:4 (KJV)

 And God saw that the light was good.

"And God saw the  light,that it  was good”

"vai·yar· e·lo·him et-ha·'o·vr ki-to·vv; vai·yav·del e·lo·him"-(Hebrew OT: Westminster Leningrad Codex Transliterated).

 

God saw the light was good.Why the light was good and darkness was bad.The light was good because it was according to His planning even though darkness was not the plan of God. God turned the darkness to be a part of human history and started blessing people out of darkness. Light is said to be a radiant energy which makes the existence of life possible.Darkness cannot sustain plant,animal and even human race. The creation of light was a blessing from God.

There is now both light and darkness in the world.Which means both good and evil is existing in
this world.If we say that only evil is working in this world and there is no good it is contradictory to God’s creation.Both good and evil is working in this world but God’s plan is the light has to be overcome  the darkness.The creation of God’s light didn’t completely removed darkness from this earth.The Gen 1:3 was the beginning of God’s work which will conclude or overcomes the darkness with a future age where darkness no longer exists." And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever"(Rev 22:5). 

Aspects of God's light

God is light and there is no darkness in Him.Darkness was the result of satan .The darkness of this world will be completely destroyed by Christ and all the fallen angels including all those who followed this dark angels will be thrown into hell as a eternal punishment.Thus God wipes out the darkness from this world.There is no darkness in the other part of galaxies and stars only it is there on earth in the celestial world.Thus the darkness around the galaxy of earth and will be released from the age of darkness and dark power by Christ putting them into eternal fire by the end of this world.

Shining God's light is a work of  saint

God created light and saw that it was good but man made the midnight as morning and started saying good morning to his neighbor good morning even at the midnight after 12 ‘O’ clock.God gave night for sleep but man is toiling even midnight and destroying his health working OT’s and long hours until midnight making party’s in the midnight in bars and restaurants.The early man went to early sleep and waken early in the morning but he modern man is running contrary to God’s creation thus spoiling his health and life span.Nobody likes darkness because darkness is a curse due to devil.All men desire light as a great strength but those who desire to be in darkness are in sin and needs to come to the divine light which destroys the powers of darkness.All the form of ungodliness and darkness activities will be broken if all men come to Christ the Divine light dispeller of all the darkness and its miseries of mankind.Christ has the answer for all the problems you are facing today and all the evil darkness surrounded your life.No great men of this world can dispel your darkness from your life it is The Lord Jesus Christ the Divine light breaks the powers of darkness in your life.What ever the problem of your darkness come to the light of Jesus.

The Christmas is about the gospel of Christ

Throughout the scripture darkness belongs to the devil and is an example of sin.spiritual death and the Kingdom of satan.But the Kingdom of God is light.The church is the kingdom of God called to be the reflector of divine light  .God himself is light (I john 1:5) and in Him there is no darkness.The incarnate word of God, Jesus Christ, is the “ light of the world” ( John 8:12).

The written word sheds light on the beleiver’s soul (Ps 119:105,130).The Gospel is also the word of God is a light."But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them". (2 Cor 4:3-4).

Christ is the reason for the season

"But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel" (2 Tim 1:10).

When man makes a decision to believe in Jesus Christ as a savior,God transfers that man from Satan’s kingdom of darkness into God’s kingdom of light."Giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves" (Col 1:12-13).

To shed the light of Christ in the kingdom of Darkness

"To open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me".(Acts 26:18).

The devil cannot produce light create life nor provide regeneration.Satan can ultimately do nothing constructive for mankind this earth or the universe.He is here to destruct mankind with darkness and sin so that all form of ungodliness and sinful activities will take place and thus bringing misery and curses to the mankind.God allowed the darkness to coexist with the light just as He permits the fallen angels to continue to exist with the elect angels and unbelievers to coexist with the believers.When Christ returns to establish His earthly kingdom at the second advent there will be no darkness at all."The sun will no more be your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon shine on you, for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory"(Isa 60:19).

Dear Reader if you are struggling with the powers of darkness in your life and wants Christ to shed His light upon your life.Make a decision to believe Christ the light of this world.To make your life to be transformed into the image of divine light is good as God saw the light as good.It is good in the sight of God to make your life to be of light and fill your life with divine goodness.

“Then Jesus told them, "You are going to have the light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, before darkness overtakes you. The man who walks in the dark does not know where he is going. Put your trust in the light while you have it, so that you may become sons of light."  (John 12:35).

Let's Pray: Our Father in Heaven! Thank you for being born as a light of gospel in the kingdom of darkness.To give Joy, hope,healing ,deliverance and salvation to the hurting world.We pray that each one of us may walk worthy of the light you have revealed through your son lord Jesus Christ.Make and enable us to shine the light of the gospel of the kingdom to the perishing souls in the world until your grace and light is fully available before the darkness overtakes this world.In Jesus Name we pray.AMEN!
