Walking In The Light Of God’s Word

Illuminated Living

Wisdom Wednesday



Walking in the light of God’s word can sometimes be challenging especially when you have been wronged or hurt.  The fleshly side of you wants to get even, be angry, yell, scream, or do evil for evil.  As children of God we have been called to higher standard.

“God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.  If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.

If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us.”Scripture Reference: Bible (NIV) 1 John 1:5-10

Simply put walking in the light of God’s word means living under the controlling desire for God instead of the world. Explore the subject of walking in the light of God’s word more on the site DesiringGod.org “Let Us Walk in the Light of God” by John Piper.

Thank you for reading Illuminated Living where we shine light over darkness.
