The Gospel of John – The Light that no darkness can overcome!

The Truth: “I have seen and testify that this is the Son of God.”   John 1:34

Jesus Christ is the author and perfecter of our Faith. This faith that comes from him enables us to believe what we cannot see and hope for all the things that are yet to come. Because of this faith, we become strong, courageous, and hopeful and patiently wait for the Lord’s promises. Our spirit learned to trust Him. Faith makes us to believe, but testifying means you witnessed it. You have seen it with your own eyes. You have experienced it yourself.

John the Baptist came from God. He was born to testify for Jesus Christ. He knows himself; he’s not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor a prophet. He is the one voice calling into the wilderness, “make straight way for the Lord!” He baptized in water so that Jesus Christ, who will baptize them with the Holy Spirit, maybe revealed to those who would believed and received him as Lord and Savior.

Even him, John the Baptist, do not know who Jesus Christ is, until the time God revealed Him to him. This all happened at Bethany on the other side of Jordan when John was baptizing.

God revealed Jesus Christ to me in the darkest hour of my life. I had cancer. Yes, I do believe in Him. I am his follower, but that day of December 17, 2013, God made me see the light that no darkness can overcome. I have seen the light that no shadows can be formed. I have seen the light that dominates all the lights inside that operating room. I have seen the light that covered the brightness of the Sun. I have seen the light that passes through the walls and its radiance made me feel I am floating. He is so powerful, He can read my mind! His voice is so clear, soft and so comforting. I asked Him’ “Lord, is it now my time?” He answered, “No, I am here to watch over you”. His words warmth my heart, it removed all my fears. And I close my eyes, I am at peace, I am in the Light!

Like John the Baptist, I have seen the light that made his testimony strong and proved that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Praise and Glory to God forever!

 

Prayers:

My faith comes from Christ.

He gave it to me, He authored it,

Into perfection it shall be.

He sees me, I see Him, because He is always with me.

Praise the Lord, Oh! My soul,

In all my troubles, He delivers me,

In His light forever I shall be.

Amen.

 

The Gospel of John – The Light that gives life!

The Truth: ” In him was life and the life was the light of men.  The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”  John 1:4-5

Our Lord Jesus Christ is beyond us!  Before the creation, he was there.  All was made for him.  He was the light that no darkness can overcome.

Cancer crushed my body, but not my spirit.  In my battle with it, my Lord was with me.  He was there before me.  He is the light that delivered me.

Light is faster than sound!  Before the sounds of all the machines attached to my body, before the sounds of cutting of my skin and flesh, before the sound of needles passing through my veins and skins attaching them together, before the doctors set the CCTV Cameras and recorded everything they were doing, before all my senses shut off due to anaesthesia, my God has delivered me.  At a speed of light He has healed me.  Before I repent, before I forgive, before I obey, before I sing and worship him, before I read and meditate on his words, he was there before me.

By faith, I received the promise of healing.  I tasted the fruit of being obedient to God and being loved by Him.  I received His healing mercy.  His faithfulness rebuild my crushed body and renewed my strength: body, mind and spirit.  He strengthened my faith to the nth level.  There’s no more to worry, I have my salvation.  My Lord is before me!

Prayers:

Father Almighty, thank you for loving me.  Thank you for sending Jesus Christ to save me.  Thank you that he is the light who has come into my world to expose the truth, to overcome all darkness and save me from shame.  Thank you that you were there for me.  Thank  you for your faithfulness.  Thank you for preparing me for this battle.  Thank you for giving me your shield and preserving my life because you loved me.
