"THE LIGHT OF THE GOSPEL"

"BRIGHT LIGHT"

"BRIGHT LIGHT"

~~ written by Kathy Todd

++ except for scriptures

~~ Jesus is our bright light and as Christians, we need to be his willing vessels for his bright light to shine through in a world that is so dark!! My, how the world needs the bright light of Jesus! There are so many who are lost in this dark world, wandering around in the wilderness and can't find their way because they can't find the true bright light they need in their life to lead their way. If they can't find this bright light, they will not ever know the gifts and love that comes from the Father of Lights, which is Jesus Christ! If we are allowing the bright light of Jesus to shine through us, then that makes us his lights in this dark world because Jesus lives within those who truly believe and have accepted him as their Lord and savior.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++ James 1:17-18 says, Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ Let's praise our Father of Lights for we are his lights because our bright light, Jesus Christ, lives within us.

~~ Praise the Lord!! Jesus' light comes from his love for us!! Jesus fills us up with his love then he calls us to be his lights! As his lights, we are commanded, not asked, to spread his light with speed. Speed is the act or quality of acting or moving fast; to cause to move, go or proceed; to rush or to hurry. As lights, we are to be ready at any given time to preach the word of God and gospel of Jesus Christ!

~~In the next scriptures (2 Timothy 4:1-5), you will read, "I give you this charge..." -- The meaning of charge in this scripture is a command for us to rush or hurry to spread the light of Jesus Christ and preach the word of God! We have to because time is running out! And people are turning away or not listening to the truth of the gospel of Jesus and the word of God!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++ 2 Timothy 4:1-5 says, In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge. Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage -- with great patience and careful instruction. For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardships, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of your ministry.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ So come on lights of Jesus!! Let's speed that light!! Let his light shine in you to lead people to Jesus Christ!!

~~Whew!! Light is an illumination that makes things visible!! As lights of Jesus, we are to let his light shine to brighten up people around us and our surroundings with animation and joy!! This will cause others to want the light that we have!! So let your light shine everywhere you go!! Jesus gave his light to us as a gift to share!! We are to be the salt and light of the earth (world).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++ Jesus says in Matthew5:13-16, "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses it saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men. You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on it's stand, and gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ Now let me tell you how to obtain, which means to GET, and then keep the light of Jesus in you. First, we must accept Jesus as our Lord and savior and admit that we have sinned and ask God to forgive us to get the light of Jesus! After we accept Jesus as our savior, the Bible says that we become light and are to walk as children of his light.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++ Ephesians 5:8-17 says, For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light. (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) and find out what pleases the Lord. Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for it is light that makes everything visible. This is why it is said, "Wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you." Be very careful, then, how you live - not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ Now to keep the light of Jesus, we have to read and learn the Bible -- which is the Holy Word of God!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++ Psalm 119:105 says, The word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ Knowing the word of God helps us keep the light of Jesus living inside of us. It is very easy for the light to become dim in our life if we don't LIVE in the word.  I know because it has happened to me!! Satan does not like it when the light of Jesus is shining and flowing in our life! He likes to keep our light in his box so it can't shine from us to other people.  When we get away from the word of God, it makes it easier for Satan to steal our light, our joy, our happiness!! He uses confusion, hurt feelings, emotions, fear, sickness, busy lives etc.... to  detour us away from reading and living in the word of God.  When this happens, our light gets dimmer and dimmer until it is completely out!! Don't allow Satan to take your light and put it in his box!! He has NO authority or power to take it but what happens when we are not living in the word is we become weaker and weaker  from Satan's darts he throws at us to detour us away from the word of God and we give up and give him our light!!  We MUST live in the word of God so we can activate the authority we have over Satan and keep our light OUT of his box!! Have you allowed Satan to steal your light, your joy, your happiness that Jesus Christ gave to you?! 

~~ !! IF YOU HAVE, TAKE IT BACK NOW!! GET IN AND LIVE IN THE WORD OF GOD!!

~~ I don't know about everyone else in the world but I personally know that I want to keep the light of Jesus shining in my life!!  

~~ If we live in the Holy Word of God, we will always have the light of Jesus and never walk in darkness!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++ In John 8:12 Jesus says, "I am the light of the world, whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ We all should know now that to follow Jesus and have his light, we MUST keep reading, learning and LIVING IN the Holy Word of God, the Bible, to never walk in darkness and always be a light of the Father of Lights!! Let us all worship him for this promise!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++  2 Corinthians 4:1-7 says, Therefore, since through God's mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart. Rather, we renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. Instead, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God. And even if our gospel is hid, it is hid to those who are perishing. The god of this world (Satan) has blinded the minds of unbelievers; so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ who is the image of God. For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as servants for Jesus' sake. For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness", Made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. But we have this treasures in jars of clay to show that this excellent power is from God and not from us.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ If you have read this and have not accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior, please do so tonight so the bright light of Jesus Christ can and will shine in your life!! Maybe you have allowed Satan to steal and put the light you once had in his box, please take this time to re-commit your life to Jesus Christ and the word of God so the bright light of Jesus will shine in your life again!! I know by experience that if we hide the light of Jesus and allow Satan to put our light Jesus gave us in his box, happiness and joy and passion and fire for Jesus can be lost to the extent of straying away which is a dangerous position to be in!! If this is you, please retrieve your light out of Satan's box right now!! If we don't allow our light to shine, the lost will NEVER know or see the light they need, can get and keep from Jesus and LIVING in the Word of

God!! The lost in the world needs to see the light of our Lord and savior, Jesus Christ!!

~~ COME ON!! BE A BRIGHT LIGHT FOR OUR FATHER OF LIGHTS, JESUS CHRIST!!

"SUPERHERO"

"SUPERHERO"

 ~~written by Kathy Todd~~

++except for Scriptures++

++ Isaiah 61:1-3:  The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord has anointed me to preach good tidings to you; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he (God) might be glorified.++

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ Wow!! Yes!! Jesus is our Superhero! God sent his son Jesus to earth to die on the cross for our sins!! To take our pain and suffering!! To save us!!

~~ Praise the Lord!! Our Superhero, Jesus Christ, came to love us and to save us!! God created the sun, the moon, the earth and us! Then he sent his only son Jesus from heaven to earth to die for our salvation, to love us, to be our superstar, to be our friend if we will accept him in our life as our savior!! When we accept Jesus as our savior, we become his friend! Having Jesus as our superhero is way better than any other superhero because he loves us and he is real and he is alive!! Jesus is not a made up superhero! Jesus can be real if your life if you let him! He wants to be your friend!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++ Jesus says in John 15:12-15:  "This is my commandment, That you love each other, as I love you. Greater love no man has than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.  You are my friends, if you do what I tell you to do. So I don't call you servants; because the servant does not know what the Lord does: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard from my Father I have explained to you."++

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ Let's look at some meanings of some words:

The word SUPER means of the highest degree or power; very good; excellent; outstanding

~~The word HERO means someone of great courage or ability who is admired for their brave actions and noble qualities; someone who has done something great and heroic; the main person of a story

~~A SUPERHERO is a hero in a story that has power to fight against evil or a villain

~~A VILLAIN is someone who is involved or causes wickedness or evil or crime; the main evil character who strives to work against the Superhero

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~The Bible word for villain is adversary which is those who are actively against God, Jesus and the Bible.  The villain in the Bible is Satan also known as the devil. He is Jesus's villain which also makes Satan the villain of all Christians.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++ 1 Peter 5:8 reads: Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.++

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ Now here is the exciting fact about our villain, Satan!! He has been defeated by our Superhero, Jesus Christ!! When Jesus died on the cross for us to save us from our sins, the act of God raising Jesus from the dead back to life 3 days later is what conquered the grave and defeated Satan.  When Jesus was nailed to the cross, he went through all that pain and suffering to save us from our sins.  When they layed Jesus in that tomb grave, there was absolutely nothing anyone could do to keep him in there once God raised him back to life! Then Satan had no authority whatsoever to keep Jesus out of Hell to claim the keys to the gates of hell back from Satan.

~~ We must understand that by Jesus defeating Satan as his villain, Jesus also defeated Satan as our villain. We just have to accept that truth and activate our faith by applying that authority and power over Satan in our own lives. Satan can still tempt us but it is up to us to resist that temptation and tell Satan NO with the power and authority Jesus won for us when he defeated Satan.  Jesus won that victory for us!! We just have to claim it and not give our victory back to Satan!!

~~ Remember!! The nails that held Jesus on the cross could not hold him down, the grave could not keep him in and Hell could not keep him out!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

++ Jesus says in Revelation 1:18: " I am he that lives who was dead; and look, I am alive forever. Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death."++

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ Praise the Lord!! Jesus reigns!! His name is the highest name to ever be said!! The power of his love is everywhere. It is in the very breathe that we take! It is in the trees that provides the air we need to take that breathe!! The power of his love is in every move we make!! Jesus lives inside of those who will believe and accept him as their savior!! Please allow him in your life now!! If you want to accept Jesus as your savior, to be your Superhero!! If you want the power of his love flowing in your life!! If you want to claim the victory Jesus won for you!! Give Jesus your life now so you can go and show others the power of his love!! Humble yourself before the Lord Jesus Christ!! Let him be your Superhero!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~Dear Heavenly Father, I come to you now in the name of your son Jesus Christ! Lord, I praise you and glorify your Holy Name!! You are my savior, my healer, my superhero, my everything!! You are my friend and I thank you for that honor!! Lord, I humble myself before your Holy throne on behalf of all lost souls around the world that have not accepted you as their Lord and savior and on behalf of those who have never heard your name!! Lord Jesus, your name is the highest name ever said and you reign forever!! Lord, please give me opportunities to lead people to your salvation!! Let your light shine through me so bright that others only see you!!  Lord, please let the power of your love to flow in my life always! Lord, please forgive me for anything that I have said, done or thought that was against you or not pleasing to you.. both things I know of and those that I am not aware of. Make me aware of those unknown things so I can ask your forgiveness. I love you Lord Jesus and give you all of my glory, honor and praise!! In Jesus name I pray, Amen
