DEAR GOD: Your Light Shines Through it All~

 

 

 

 

John 1:4-5 4 (NIV)

In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

 

Can you see His light?

Do you sense His light from within?

Fear not, for He is with us…always.

 

Most of us are being greatly affected by this “shelter at home” due to the raging monster, COVID-19.  And, while in place, we have time to do so many things, and being…”getting closer to God” and reading His Word.

We now have scads of time to dwell in the house of the LORD…and meditate at His temple of Holiness.  Yes, from our homes.  He is there, right alongside each and everyone of us.

Praying, looking to Him, for help during this crisis is crucial to our staying calm.  Because chaotic things are happening, and the times have changed so rapidly, most people are having great difficulty adjusting to their “new normal.”

I can’t stress this enough, being a follower of Christ…stay in His Word!  Pray and get to know Him on a deeper level than you previously had.

Praising Him, and looking to Him, brings us into the realm of tranquility, which truly supersedes “chaos” and “noise” of the world.

God, has the victory, in all things. And, this virus is not nearly as big as OUR GOD!

God, is allowing this right now for reasons that may be beyond our comprehension.  However, preachers and those who are faithful followers, usually process in a different way when it comes to adversity.

We understand the power of God, and His Sovereign nature. We know full well who is ultimately in control of everything in the universe, and essentially, in our life!

We know His promises in the Bible.

We know of His commandments in the Bible.

And we know the power of prayer.

Today…I am continuing in prayer for all those afflicted with this “evil virus,” and all those who lost dear loved ones because of it.

I am continuing in prayer for the light to shine out the darkness, and the day when this crisis is passed over us.

I am continuing in prayer for all of my brothers, and sisters, to unite in Spirit, and to lend their time at home, to the Father above, who is capable of all things.

And finally to know…that at the end of every storm, comes quiet. And the brightest of all rainbows will appear, stretching out in glory,  of the covenant with our Father in heaven.

Keep looking up…the storm is about to end…

 

“Father God, thank You for Your peace and love, and for the quiet solitude we spend together, I surrender all to You, and know that You will guide me through this storm, and provide wings of safety, now and always, in Jesus name Amen.”

 

 

John 1:4-5 4 (NKJV)

In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 

And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.

 

Colossians 1:9-14

For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;

strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience; joyouslyread more.
giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Light.

For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
