Light and Darkness; Part 1 (by Laura Grace)
Part 1: How Darkness gets in
There is a whole lot more to be said about light and darkness
than just "let there be light!" Darkness represents lies of the
dark kingdom and the Light of God is ...what shines into our
hearts (the glorious Gospel!) and let's us know the TRUTH
that not only makes us free but also saves our souls.
Whenever we choose to believe or "put" our faith in a lie
that lets darkness into our soul (and your mind by the way!)
Therefore this is a very serious study, one that needs to be
considered, pondered and meditated upon! It's important we
do not allow "LIES" into our souls, which is the reason we need
to stop and think about what we are believing, vs just believing
everything we hear that comes down the pike. the bible says
even if an angel preaches "another gospel" let him be accursed.
It really all starts with a person wanting to believe what they
want to believe, what feels GOOD (to their flesh to believe in)
and refusing to hear anything that does not line up with what
"FEELS GOOD TO THEM!". The Gospel, while truly able to save our
souls, often and almost always does not FEEL GOOD to our flesh
(our human thinking) or what we would LIKE to hear! Our flesh
is prone to wanting to hear lies, this is why Paul said he had to
beat himself into submission, and why the Lord said to not despise
chastising from him. There is much to be said about chastising, but
it is not something the Lord wants us to be ignorant about for sure.
Before we allow God (and his light) INTO our hearts it's like we are blind or at least "blindfolded!" This is why Jesus said to his DISCIPLES "blessed are your eyes" (to see) many wanted to know and could not know. There are volumes to be said "JUST on the Subject of light (and also darkness!!) so for now suffice to say: "let us pray"
Father in the name of Jesus, we truly want YOUR LIGHT and we do not wish to be blind or blindfolded to the Glorious truths of your Gospel Father! And we certainly don't wish to say we can SEE and lie about it because if we do that you can never really help us so long as WE do not admit that we have "THIS NEED" To SEE you more clearly and follow you more nearly.......day by day!"
