SCRIPTURE: And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. John 1:5
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Light handles every form of darkness.
Sometime ago, I heard a funny story. Jesse Duplantis, a man of God, went to preach in a place. In those days, they did not usually lodge guest ministers in hotels; they lodged them in the houses of members and associates. So, they lodged him in one house in the place where he went to preach, and there was no light in that house.
In the early hours of the morning, around 1 or 2 am, he was awoken by an image dangling on the wall. Thinking that the image was a demon, he began to rebuke that “demon.” He said, “Devil, get out of here! You demon, get out in Jesus’ Name!” But the “demon” moved left and moved right, and then stayed back in the same position.
He continued rebuking the demon until he saw light at daybreak, only to realise that the “demon” he had been rebuking was a raincoat. It was not a demon at all. It was raincoat that a farmer wore in the daytime, hung it on the wall, and the breeze was blowing it from side to side in that room at night.
Beloved, there are things you are afraid of now because of the absence of light. There are doubts you are having around your life now because of the absence of light. There are even prayers you are praying now that are a waste of prayer because of the absence of light. When light appears, doubts, fear and unbelief are cleared.
You know, light handles every form of darkness.
Today, receive the light that would kill all your fears, in Jesus’ Name.
Remember this: Light handles every form of darkness.
