In the very beginning, God established the principle that light is greater than darkenss. Genesis 1:16 says, "And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night:"
Here we see that light, is given the preeminence. Darkness, by very nature, is secondary to light. Think about it. In the blackest of midnights, all you need to do is light a simple candle and it will push back the darkness, illuminating outward, and can be seen from a great distance...
Ecclesiastes 2:13 - Then I saw that wisdom excelleth folly, as far as light excelleth darkness
Isaiah 9:2 - The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.
We are the light, the people of light, those who walk in God's light. Just read scriptures like I Peter 2:9, Ephesians 5:8, and I Thessalonians 5:5. We should never be afraid to do as Jesus said and let our light shine in this dark world (Matthew 5:16).
When light steps on the scene, darkness has to give way, roll back, and submit to its power. As long as that light shines, the darkness can't overcome it. Remember, greater is He that lives in us than he that is in the world (I John 4:4).
So get out there and let your light shine in this dark world. They need to see the light!!!
