Greetings brothers and sisters in the name of our Savior Jesus Christ! What did Jesus mean when he made this statement, Let your light Shine. Praise and glory to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He is the one and only, The Almighty, the Most High & one true God.
Many people find that sharing something embarrassing; And mistakes made within their lives something very hard to do. Especially for most “MEN”, because I know most men think, to be a man means to hold that pain in and to be strong! But honestly, it’s that manly pride thought from the devil within them, that keeps them from letting their lights shine for all to see.
That lie tells them to move on and remain selfish; Without thinking, if there are any others possibly struggling with many same issues they’ve dealt with and overcame. Many are seeking answers and others to share with. And they’d prefer to seek help with those who went through the same problems they’re facing!
They’re wondering if they could ever overcome these rough edges within their lives. And sadly, some would just end up dying by taking their very own lives, due to the pain that eats them up within.
If we do not let our lights shine by sharing our testimonies from Christ, how will others ever know how to get through a problem that they face in their lives?
What Is The Answer To All Problems?
Being part of his Ecclesia, The Body of Christ; We truly know the ONLY answer to all the problems within this life! It is only found in Jesus Christ alone! That is why it’s important for us to share all testimonies that Jesus helps us overcome within this life! Because as Jesus said, as we let our lights shine before all men, they shall see our good works & glorify our father who is in heaven! Matthew 5:16.
As a true Christian believer, we should never blame any perpetrator or point fingers. We should never seek who is at fault because honestly, it wasn’t their fault or yours! Although they may have performed the wicked act that put you through all the misery, it wasn’t their fault! We need to dig deeper into the root cause of the situation.
When we do this, we find out that the one to blame is the devil himself! He should be the one that we put to blame & shame! He is the one out to steal, kill and destroy, & seeking whom he may devour.
What we need to do, is find it within ourselves to forgive, and pray that Jesus would reach within their hearts, change them from their wicked ways, and come to repentance! That is exactly what Jesus taught us to do! He not only told us to do this, but he also led as an example as he walked this earth 2000+ years ago.
“Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;” Matthew 5:44
What could happen to us if we don’t let our light shine?
If we hide our lights and don’t share those testimonies from Jesus Christ, what could happen to us? A great thought from the Holy Spirit of Christ says, think about what happened to the one who held one talent and hid it in the parable of the talents. (Matthew 25:14-30) We do not want that testimony to be held against us on judgment day. As it is written:
“That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.” Matthew 12:36
Being part of the Body of Christ, the Holy Spirit of Christ says; We must share all good things that he has done for us within this life! It’ll help others who seek a way out of a tough situation they’re facing within their lives. Therefore, we must go on living life and occupy till he comes back to gather us all!
Let our lights shine upon others so that they will glorify Jesus Christ! Let us be soul winners, for his kingdom has come and many are still unaware of it! This calls for wisdom and your spiritual eyes and ears to be activated; To hear what the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ means about that.
I pray that you are encouraged by the Holy spirit of Jesus Christ, to let your lights shine within this world. Because as our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ stated, we are not of this world, just as he isn’t! (John 17:16)
We are visitors and foreigners in this world, but our home awaits us where The Almighty reigns, and where no unrighteousness remains, in Jesus’ name.
With sincerity & much Love,
