So Now What?
Once we realize that we are to change the world, our world changes. So what do I mean by that? We are meant to be a light to this world.
Matthew 5:14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Clearly we are to reach out to those around us. But recently I thought about what I was to say when I do reach out. Then it occurred to me, let’s look at what Yeshuah (Jesus) says next.
Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
When I realized that fulfilling the Law is what we are to do. We are to follow His commandments. And what are they?
Proverbs 6:23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:
So we see, the light we are to shine is in the doing of the Law in faith.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King! Praise the name Yahuah! Let us be Your light to this world. Send us now Your overwhelming provision, overflowing our ability to contain it. Forgive us our sins. Heal up the wounds in our minds, hurts from days past. Deliver us from the evil that steals and destroys. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundredfold, and hundreds of hundreds of hundreds, that which has been taken, held back, or in any way restricted from Your people. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.
