OUT OF THE DARKNESS
INTO
THE  LIGHT


ON ONE SIDE OF OUR LORD IS DARKNESS
ON
THE OTHER SIDE IS LIGHT

HIS LOVE

STANDS BETWEEN THE TWO

          Has there ever been such a day as this?  No!  Never!  As the darkness spreads and becomes darker and His Light Brighter.  As He separates the dark from the Light.  Even in our minds, the separation is more clear than ever before.
          How He does this amazes me.  The world now flooded with so much knowledge and our spirits absorbing so much…yet, not overcome; choosing only what is TRUE and of value…supernaturally keeping it simple…so that we stand and watch what our Lord is doing.
          The old ways of doing things have vanished.  We can’t go back, but must Stand our Watch with our eyes constantly on Jesus, looking for His return, watching now, even for the slightest move of even His little finger…as our spirits remain sensitive to His slightest promptings.  Yes, I think our spirits have never been more sensitive to His Spirit than they are today.  He’s getting us ready.
          Like fire flies on a dark night.  I believe people in the dark will see the glow of our Lord shining through our vessels.  There will be less “talk” on our part and more of a REST in Him.  LOVE was the First Call of God and I believe is His Last Call to His children and to the lost.

READING  IN  EXODUS
(Exodus 10:22b-23)

          “…there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt for 3 days.  It was so dark they saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for 3 days.
          “But all the children of Israel had Light in their dwellings.” 

CHILDREN  OF  LIGHT
HATE  DARKNESS

          For children of Light, dear ones, to live in darkness is a horror we cannot fathom.  We resist it!  We run from it…always to the Light.  To dwell in darkness for 3 days would be torture beyond our imagination.  Yet, the Grace of God has not permitted this for us.
          In all the years of my life, there has never been a day when I didn’t see the sun come up and light for my day.  Never!  Never have I had to sit
3 DAYS IN DARKNESS.  I may have had to wait for light_ both spiritual and natural, but it surely comes.  (Habakkuk 2:3).
          To dwell in darkness for 3 days….  Doesn’t that remind us of what Jesus did for us?  Three day Jesus suffered the darkness of hell for us…death, hell, the grave and separation from His Father.  Peter preaches in Acts 2:31 of Christ’s Resurrection that God would not leave His soul in hell…but would raise Him up.  Even in hell, the place of utter darkness, Light remained IN Jesus because He is LIGHT and there is no darkness IN Him.
          And as He is the Light, His Light remains in us wherever we go. 
          As God supplies all our needs, I can’t help but consider our lives in America, the great land of promise He gave us.  Even in the night, He has made provision for electricity, flashlights, camp fires, lanterns.  There is nothing He has not thought of to provide for us the light…and more so, His Light.

SPIRIT  and  FLESH

          As our thoughts flow between the Spirit and the Flesh (natural things of earth), we find Comfort in His Light and the recording of Moses in Exodus 10:23b.  “But, all the children of Israel had LIGHT in their dwellings.”
          As this was natural for the children of Israel in that day, it was also spiritual whether they recognized it or not.  We are blessed double today because God has sent His Holy Spirit to reveal the Light that dwells in each of us.  What a comfort!

WALK A-BOUT

          This is one of those days where God’s Word expands too much for me to continue.  I pray that this message will ignite a fire in you to continue on this path of Light as you look up the words in your concordance and see the Light (revelation) for yourself as you search out the words “darkness” and “light”.  There is no end to His Light.  Praise the Lord!

SENSITIVE  TO  THE  LIGHT

          As our Father is the Beginning and End of all things, for some reason I am drawn back to Genesis l:4.  “And God saw the Light, that it was good:  and God divided the Light from the Darkness.”
          That is what I am seeing now.  The dark is getting darker and the Light, brighter.  God is pouring out revelation to His children like never before….millions all over the world.  They are more sensitive to LIGHT than they have ever been.
          The line is being drawn clearly between dark and light.

WHAT ARE WE TO DO?

          We are to walk in the Light as He is in the Light and have fellowship with one another.  (I John 1:7).  And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness.  (Ephesians 5:11).  For ye were sometimes darkness, but now [are ye] light in the Lord: walk as children of light:  (Ephesians 5:8).

HOW?  SIMPLIFY!

          Draw a picture.  Observe the difference.  Be able to distinguish any event in your environment (territory) as it belongs in either one category or the other.  Separate the two.
DARK_________LIGHT
WRONG­­________RIGHT
HELL_______HEAVEN
           LOVE               

          Then as you walk between these two boxes representing Dark and Light, walk in Love.  Those who walk in darkness will be drawn by the Holy Spirit to the Light of Christ that dwells in you.

SIMPLY      BE       LIGHT
SIMPLY    BE       LOVE

THAT  GLORIOUS  CITY

          Then one day soon, I believe, we will be with our Lord in that Glorious City….  “Where there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them Light; and they shall reign (above darkness…in the light) for ever and ever.”
(Revelation 22:5).

HALLELUJAH!
