Topic: THE DYNAMICS OF LIGHT (Part 4)!
Memory Verse: "Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light" - Genesis 1:3 NKJV
Bible Text: 2 Corinthians 3:18 NKJV
18. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.
INSPIRATION: Reflecting the image of Christ is a progressive action aimed at moving believers from one level of glory to another. It takes light to have a reflection. When the light is beamed on Jesus and we look steadfastly in His direction, our lives take on the image we see. The more we stay focused on Jesus Christ, the more we transform into the reflection that we see. This explains why two people may become saved and born again on the same day in a church but their growth level will vary. You cannot grow beyond how you expose yourself to His light.
When light beams on an image, it casts a shadow at the other end. Allow the light of Christ to beam on you so you can reflect the perfect image of His person. On a flip side, sick people were healed as Peter's shadow fell on them (Acts 5:15-16). There is nothing supernatural about his shadow other than the fact that he has had a great personal relationship with Christ that the glory of Christ was reflecting through him. You too can manifest great graces in Christ when you allow His light to leave a burning imprint in your heart and spirit. This is the essence of our Christian walk.
TODAY'S TAKE HOME:
Make it a daily duty to expose yourself to the light and person of Jesus Christ, reflect and beam the image of Him you see, and everything in and around you would progressively change.
PRAYER: O Lord, please may my daily encounters with You be transformationally engaging in its entirety until all of me reflects all of You, in Jesus name.
