I researched “God’s light” in the Bible. What are the reasons I might want to stay in God’s light and not wander off into the dark shadows of the night? There is a reason we need to be in the light.
After God made the Heavens and the earth, He said, “Let there be light” and there was light. He saw that the light was good and then he separated the light from the darkness. Heavens, earth, light, water, sky, stars, plants, animals, people—these things are good. God created them all to display His glory.
The light of God is described in the Bible with words like radiance, shine, illuminating, brightness, glowing, sunlight and splendor. Words associated with darkness are foolish, worthless, weeping, gnashing, trembling, calamity, wicked and stumble.
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. James 1:17. God is light, He is the light on our path, we are to carry that light. I am the the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life. John 8:12.
There are so many facets of God’s light. I want to uncover and be illuminated by them all.
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life. John 8:12
