THE LIGHT HAS COME (Christmas Edition)
Times Of Refreshing Daily Devotional
Date: Wednesday, 25 December 2024
Message: Christmas celebrates the arrival of Jesus, the Light of the World, who dispels darkness and guides us into truth and life.
The birth of Jesus marked the dawning of a new light in the world. Before His coming, humanity walked in the darkness of sin, fear, and despair. But when Jesus was born, the true Light entered the world, bringing hope, salvation, and clarity. His light is not just for a select few but for everyone who will receive Him. This light shines into every corner of our lives, exposing sin, breaking chains, and guiding us into the truth and abundant life He promises.
Christmas reminds us that we no longer have to stumble in the dark because the Light has come. Jesus’ birth is the fulfillment of God’s promise to bring His light into the world, offering redemption and illuminating the path to eternal life. As we celebrate His coming, let us allow His light to fill our hearts, dispel our fears, and shine through us to a world still in need of His hope and truth.
Scripture Reading:
John 1:9 – “The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.”
Refreshing for the Day:
Take time to reflect on the areas of your life where you need the light of Jesus to shine. Invite Him into those spaces and surrender your fears and struggles to Him. Ask Him to guide you with His truth and to help you walk in His light. Think of one way you can reflect His light to others today, whether through encouragement, kindness, or sharing the hope of Christ.
Note This:
Jesus is the Light of the World who dispels all darkness. His light is available to everyone who seeks Him, bringing clarity, hope, and eternal life.
Responsibility:
Are there areas of your life where you are still walking in darkness? How can you invite Jesus’ light into those spaces today? Who in your life needs to see the light of Christ through you this Christmas?
Prayer:
O Lord Jesus, thank You for being the Light that shines in the darkness. Thank You for coming into the world to bring hope, truth, and salvation. Shine Your light into every area of my life, and guide me to walk in Your truth. Help me to reflect Your light to those around me this Christmas and always. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
Prophetic Declaration:
I declare that the light of Jesus shines brightly in my life. His truth dispels all darkness, His love fills my heart, and His presence guides me each day. I will walk in His light and share it with the world. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
Bible Texts: John 1:9
