UNTIL HE SHINES HIS LIGHT IN OUR DARKNESS

Thought For The Day~Light For The Darkness.


Psalm 36:9 says “For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light” One of the primary struggles for many of God’s children is being able to discern the voice of the Spirit from the noise that bombards us daily. There isn’t a quick solution, but the psalmist does come to our aid. He clearly tells us that in the light of God shall we see light. For some it is crippling, leading to a lack of action on their part. For others it is even the more crippling. They wonder, how do I know when I am being led of the Spirit or the promptings of my desire. When an answer eludes them they are forced to do the one thing that comes easily, they look inwardly, albeit, it is the wrong place.

How then does one come to the place of knowing? How can we know for certain that the action we have taken is of the Lord? Well, it is only through His light shall we see. What does this mean? It means no matter how much we painstakingly examine our actions, that is by reflection or brooding, we will not find, discover, let alone come the light! Remember, our senses are in constant contact and possibly exchange with the world, therefore the data/information we garner through our senses is already flawed. The information we come about through extensive research, no matter how vast, is at best limited. We live in a fallen world and therefore MUST live by a higher law. That is the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus.

1 John 1:5 says “This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at al". Until God’s light beams into one's heart, I doubt if such a one could possible know his/her state.
