Jesus says to His disciples “As long as I am in the world I am the light of the world; Indeed He was the light of the world during his earth walk, he is still the light of the world, and He will always be the light of the world as long as the world remains. He is the same yesterday today and forever (John 9:5; Hebrews 13:8)
But there is something more; Jesus is no more in this world physically, But He is in each of us; we (believers) are his representatives now on the earth. We are here in this world to take his place and shine as the lights in the world as if He (Jesus) is physically here on the earth.
We are “The Light of the World”. It is our reality in Christ Jesus, it is our inheritance. It is not a promise, but a statement of fact. We are the lampstands shining in every city. When we act on God’s word and begin to really shine as the light we are in our respective fields and ministries, then every spec from kingdom of darkness will never have its place in our world.
John 5: 35 [KJV]
He was a burning and a shining light; and ye were willing to rejoice in his light.
Jesus said this about about John, if this is a true testimony of John the Baptist, it can be the same for you; you too can be a burning and a shining light.
Jesus calls you the light of the world, so therefore manifest who you are in Christ. You are the city set on a hill, don’t hide yourself, don’t delay or postpone God’s calling on life.
Now is the time to act and be all God has made you to be in Christ. Set forth now, unleash yourself. Shine forth from that community take your world for Jesus. Now is your time. Glory to His name, even us!!!
DECLARATION
I am a burning and a shining light. Everyone is willing to come to my light and the brightness of my rising. The glory and the light of God are in me and I distribute it to ends of the earth.
