The Kingdom Of Light · Wednesday, August 21st

August 21st, 2013

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an

 

holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew

 

forth the praises of him who hath called you out of

 

darkness into his marvellous light: (1 Peter 2:9).

 

The underlined portion of the verse above

 

lets you know your present location;

 

you’ve been brought out of darkness into

 

God’s marvellous light. That light is the

 

"light of life" that shows you the path of

 

success, victory, and dominion. It’s like

 

what the Lord did for the children of

 

Israel back in the Old Testament; He brought them out

 

of Egypt, which represented darkness, into the Promised

 

Land, which symbolizes light!

 

Darkness represents sin, death, evil and all the negative

 

things that are associated with Satan. Meaning that,

 

you’ve been brought out of sin, sickness, disease,

 

depression, poverty, frustrations and everything that’s

 

of the devil, into God’s Kingdom of light. This isn’t

 

something the Lord will do for you as you grow in Christ,

 

He’s already done it. Colossians 1:12-13 says, "Giving

 

thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be

 

partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who

 

hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath

 

translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son."

 

You’ve been brought into the supernatural life of glory,

 

where you reign and rule in life over Satan and the

 

cohorts of darkness by the power of the resurrected

 

Christ. The day you made Jesus Lord of your life, you

 

came into the Kingdom of God’s dear Son; it’s a spiritual

 

Kingdom where you reign in life by grace, through

 

righteousness. There’s no darkness there; that’s why it’s

 

called the Kingdom of Light!

 

The Kingdom to which you belong is superior to the

 

kingdom of this world where sin, sickness, disease, and

 

infirmities hold men in bondage. You’re not subject to

 

the darkness and decadent systems and structures of

 

this world; you belong to the heavenly Kingdom of God’s

 

elect: it’s a land of glory, prosperity, beauty, honour,

 

and excellence, where you partake of the glorious

 

inheritance of the saints in light.

 

Confession

I thank you dear Lord for bringing me out of darkness into the Kingdom of your dear Son, where I reign by grace through righteousness, and enjoy the glorious liberty of the sons of God. You’re the light of my life, by which I navigate my way excellently through life in victory, dominion, and success, in Jesus’ Name. Amen. f u r t h e r s t u d y: ; ; Daily Scripture Year Reading Plan : , 2 Year Reading Plan : ,
