When life is dark, a light will shine for those who live rightly— those who are merciful, compassionate, and strive for justice.
Dear Ones: When Life is Dark! The righteous ones will be clothed in light. These are the ones who are merciful, filled with compassion, and thirst for justice. These words are so relevant to the times in which we are living. They also reveal that darkness has tried to overwhelm the world in the past. History tells us of the brutality of the Roman emperors, the Nazi regime, and the many attempts at racial ethnic cleansing.
But look to the outcome, these waves of evil were pushed back because the Lord God rules in the affairs of men. Daniel 4:17 reveals, “This decision is by the decree of the watchers, And the sentence by the word of the holy ones, In order that the living may know That the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, Gives it to whomever He will, And sets over it the lowest of men.” God raises up people during these times when deep darkness encroaches on the nations to enforce His plans and victory.
The ecclesia (true Church) is to be God’s governing council in the world. When they exercise their God-given authority, the Light they release pushes back darkness. As the power of God falls, spiritual revival and awakening comes in like a tsunami flood. Righteousness, justice, and truth take control of the places where darkness had ruled.
Therefore, when life is dark, as a righteous one, begin to release the Light and Life of His Word over every situation in your life. You were ordained to live in these times, so, He has equipped you to be an overcomer in them. You are an atmosphere changer because the greater One lives in you. Have an overcoming day. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
