Do you know what a flashlight is? I ask, because people now use the phone for everything (camera, music, movies, games and lights).
Well, I like flashlights. They are very useful during a storm or on dark night in the country.
Christians are like flashlights, in fact the Bible calls us the “light of the world” (Matthew 5:18). We are also called the “children of light” (Ephesians 5:8) and we must walk in the light in this dark world (Philippians 2:15).
A flashlight needs:
Power (Ephesians 5:8). Christ is our Source of life and power (like the battery) and we need to walk actively in the light of Jesus (in His power)
To be Pressed (John 8:12). Turn to Jesus and follow Him (Turn on the light)
Public (Matthew 5:14-16) — Do not hide Christ. Be a Public testimony that attracts others to Christ
(Shine your light to God, not on their face)
Pure (Philippians 2:15). Don’t let sin mess your shine
We are now walking in the “daylight savings time.” Let us also walk in the saving light of Christ.
Follow the Light; walk in the Light and be a light for Christ.
