The Light and Darkness

Part XXI

We are from God, and we are living in His light

   When we glorify God in everything we do, we will not fell into darkness. Giving glory and praise to our Lord will be the way to the light of Jesus. When we are choosing the evil ways to fulfill our ambitions our days will be darkened.   Jeremiah 13:16 (NJB): 16 Give glory to Yahweh your God before the darkness comes, before your feet stumble on the darkened mountains. You hope for light, but he will turn it to shadow dark as death, will change it to blackness. When our Lord is with us death will not approach us. We should always strive for the light which is very near to us. We all are aware that we are from God. But we should know that whole world is under the influence of evil one John 5:19 (NJB): We are well aware that we are from God, and the whole world is in the power of the Evil One. Evil has no authority over the faithful people of God. 

   Jesus is saying we are chosen race to work for the Kingdom of  God. 1 Peter 2:9 (NJB): But you are a chosen race, a kingdom of priests, a holy nation, a people to be a personal possession   to sing the praises of God who called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light. We all are called out of darkness by Jesus our Lord to experience and live in his light. We are children of light and the children of the day. In day time there is no place for darkness, always there will be light. 1 Thessalonians 5:5 (NJB): 5 No, you are all children of light and children of the day: we do not belong to the night or to darkness,
