 Let There Be Light

“When God said, “Let there be light,” He created the sun and all the other fiery planets that gave forth light.

We may forget that biblically speaking when light is referred to, the only source of light was fire. There was no electricity!

We are called to be the light of the world. And to be light we need to be ignited. We only shine God’s light when we are on fire and burning for the Lord.

John the Baptist was called a burning lamp and blazing torch and those in his day enjoyed the light exuding from him. John 5:35.

That is why in the book of Acts 2:1-3 when the disciples were infused with Holy Spirit there were white hot flames of fire over their heads. This metaphor of light that was long prophesied was manifesting in the Spirit and in the natural.

My prayer is that we would receive the fire of God through fresh outpourings of Holy Spirit.

As Matthew 25:1-10 reveals, one of the keys to burning for the long haul is to pay for jars of oil which I believe is our individual personal intimacy. We can’t get this from others, from a church or ministry, or from receiving a prayer of impartation, but rather we must pay the price of personal sacrifice and worship, and by devoting time to sitting at the feet of Yeshua.

May we be ignited by His Spirit to be burning lamps and blazing torches in our day!”
