Ellie Holcomb, Christian artist, shares a wonderful illustration about living in the LIGHT. A mother explained to her young children when you’re in a dark room, you can’t see anything. But when you turn on the light you are able to see and recognize there’s nothing to be afraid of.
How often we forget that simple truth. Light will always outshine darkness. Never does darkness turn out the light!
So how do you turn on the light when you’re in a dark place or when darkness surrounds you and comes against you? Jesus said HE is the light (John 8:12). Psalm 36:9 ESV says “in your light we see light.” We let His light shine into the dark corners of our mind where the enemy tries to blind us with his lies.
We shine the Word of God into those nooks and crannies, dispelling darkness, conquering those thoughts with the Word of our victory. “The LORD is my light and my salvation” Psalm 27:1 ESV.
