SUBJECT: THE LIGHT
 
TEXT: “You are the light of the world. Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven." (Matthew 5:14a, 16)
 
THOUGHT: Light brings solutions to any problems. We as the lights of the world are the lights in dark places. We become the solution to problems and the answer to someone’s prayers.
 
Point #1 – Being a light in dark places takes:
  • positive self-talk
  • boldness
  • prayer
  • faith 
  • perseverance
  • humbleness
  • courage
  • and revealing the truth
Point #2 – Lights are meant to shine bright:

Don’t hide your light. The ways of right-living people glow with light; the longer they live, the brighter they shine.
(Proverbs 4:18, The Message Bible)
 

Conclusion: Pastor Steve Dennis – VALUE YOURSELVES “The brighter it gets the better we should see”
Our lives are much too important to be stressing over dark situations. “LIGHT IT UP with your luminous and radiant energy and change any dark situation into a positive one.”
