TOPIC: Your Good Works
BIBLE TEXT: Matthew 5:16 TPT - So don't hide your light! Let it shine brightly before others, so that the commendable things you do will shine as light upon them, and then they will give their praise to your Father in heaven."
The life of a believer must be an example to the world. As an ambassador for Christ we are sent into the world to show forth the Light of God. We must be representatives of God's goodness. Jesus Christ admonishes us in Matthew 5 after the sermon on the mount, to let our light so shine before men - many out there are confused and are in the dark about Heaven and the truth of God's word.
This is a wake up call to all sleeping believers, shy believers, inactive believers and psychedelic Christians. That Christ expects us to be His image to the people of the earth. We cannot shine and radiate God's glory by hiding ourselves or staying timid or confining ourselves to limitations. The world awaits our manifestation but the air is still silent. Many Christians seek role models in unbelievers when they should be the model of light that the community and world seeks.
We are the light of this world, spread abroad not to live out in pleasures or vanities but to be representatives and witnesses of our Lord Jesus Christ via our good works. The world is ready, let us carry Jesus everywhere and tell it to the world that the standard for living is in Christ the Way, the Truth and the Life.
Prayer - Heavenly Father, thank you for your light within my heart, help me to be a light to my generation in Jesus name.
Insight - Let your light shine so bright that God may be glorified through our good works.
