In the Gospel of John, in chapter three, we find that God has already done everything for any person to step into His light and be restored into Life; to be restored into the relationship with God we were created for. We also find that people refuse to accept the love and goodness of God’s grace because they fear the exposure of the truth that they actually love the darkness. It has become an addiction. Darkness promises wholeness but only bores deeper holes, increasing emptiness in the human soul.

The extremely sad thing is that God has already seen the full extent of damage done to human living by our love of darkness. It’s exposure for what it is terrifies us, but God, having already seem it completely wants us to know that is why Jesus came the first time: because we cannot rescue ourselves from our addiction to darkness.

God loved the world (that’s all people-groups; every individual) so much that He gave His one and only Son, to the end that ALL who would believe in Him would have everlasting life. God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but so that the world might be saved by Him.

God has offered to each one the privilege of repentance, of coming clean, entering into His penetrating light so that we can see that God has already paid the price to redeem and rescue us. The light shows clearly that we have always needed outside help. We have always needed a Savior, and He came once to die our death and rise again to give us a new life and He is coming again.

True wisdom bears the strong mark of humility. Come today, out of the darkness that will never truly satisfy the hunger that rages in you. You need a Savior; I need a savior. It is the truest fact for all humanity. God has already done what we can never do. Come into His light. Believe and receive.

  PRAYER Jesus Christ NEVER taught on what we call "unanswered prayer." James wrote that a divided loyalty between trusting the Lord God for life and at the same time relying on the world's systems to get what you want will result in you not getting anything from God you may have prayed about. God will never reinforce the unbelief that flows from divided loyalty. THAT is not unanswered prayer. That is God saying, "No." to your request. God saying, "No." to your requests is not unanswered prayer. It is His grace. His "No" is just what I would want if I knew what He knows. The Lord also answers with, "Not now; not yet." because we are not yet prepared to receive what we think we need. God works in us both to will and to do His good pleasure. If I am praying for something God wants to do in me and the Holy Spirit is working in me preparing me to receive what God has in store, His "Not yet." is NOT unanswered prayer. As we see...

 HEBREWS 10:1-2, 10-18 "The sacrifices under that system ( the Old Covenant) were repeated again and again, year after year, but they were never able to provide perfect cleansing for those who came to worship.   If they could have provided perfect cleansing, the sacrifices would have stopped, for the worshipers would have been purified once for all time, and their feelings of guilt would have disappeared.   For God’s will was for us to be made holy by the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all time.  Under the Old Covenant, the priest stands and ministers before the altar day after day, offering the same sacrifices again and again, which can never take away sins.   But our High Priest offered Himself to God as a single sacrifice for sins, good for all time. Then He sat down in the place of honor at God’s right hand.   There He waits until His enemies are humbled and made a footstool under His feet.   For by that one offering He forever m...

  From Oswald Chambers today: "If the Spirit of God detects anything in you that is wrong, He doesn’t ask you to make it right; He only asks you to accept the light of truth, and then He will make it right. A child of the light will confess sin instantly and stand completely open before God. But a child of the darkness will say, “Oh, I can explain that.” When the light shines and the Spirit brings conviction of sin, be a child of the light. Confess your wrongdoing, and God will deal with it. If, however, you try to vindicate yourself, you prove yourself to be a child of the darkness. What is the proof that carnality has gone? Never deceive yourself; when carnality is gone you will know it— it is the most real thing you can imagine. And God will see to it that you have a number of opportunities to prove to yourself the miracle of His grace. The proof is in a very practical test. You will find yourself saying, “If this had happened before, I would have had the spirit of resentment!”...
