Light Brings Illumination

When we have a new idea or new insight, we say we have "new light" on the subject or have illumination. When God moves on us He also brings new light and we call it revelation.

Here is a verse that describes the light bearing quality of God's word;

Ps 119:130
The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple.

As we pray, God will open our spiritual eyes, and He will also move on those that we pray for. In Eph 1:18 Paul prayed that the eyes of peoples' understanding would be enlightened. This is one of the reasons we intercede for others, that they would be able to see the light of Christ and become saved.

Every day we come across people who are in the dark about something, and we have the answer for what these people need. God's Word and our prayers can bring light into dark situations. Yes, this is simple and this is basic – but it is real and it is powerful.

It's easy to turn on a light switch, and it is also easy to use the Word and prayer to turn on the spiritual light. Be encouraged to make a difference by letting His light bring illumination.

God bless you all.
