By THE SPIRIT Paul wrote in Ephesians chapter 5:
8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light
9 (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth),
10 finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.
11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.
12 For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret.
13 But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light.
14 Therefore He says:
“Awake, you who sleep,
Arise from the dead,
And Christ will give you light.”
The Hebrew day begins at nightfall or “darkness” and proceeds to light and this is the same manner by which we mature from blindness to revelation. In these days of instant gratification, many people are unwilling to press in to the Spiritual for an extended period of time. They simply give up and succumb to the cares of the world. We must persevere and continue in patience as the light of day grows stronger.
It is Christ Who will give us light and no other path can accomplish this same result. There are those who claim to be enlightened only to continue to grope around in the darkness of their illusion. In Matthew chapter 12, Jesus spoke:
33 “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit.
34 Brood of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
35 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things.”
As we continue to progress into the brightness of the day, we should expect our fruit to be a testimony to our revelation. We must put actions to the revelation given unto us and not withhold any good fruit from those who are willing to partake. We will spread the Gospel by Word and deed, not just Word only. As we do, the light will grow brighter and FATHER’S Blessings will follow us.
We will no longer be swayed by those who persist in remaining in the dark but will distance ourselves from their doctrines of death and destruction. We will no longer have fellowship with darkness and when judgment arrives on them we will not experience the collateral damage. You can be assured that FATHER will correct and discipline those who persist in their path toward the darkness.
In the Holy of Holies the only light Source is the Glory of FATHER for there is no other light needed. Let us proceed to the light and refrain from looking back for we are called to be the Children of the Light!
