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.
