John 12:45-46 ~ 45 And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me. 46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. KJV
Jesus made a way that we can avoid all darkness! The Light of the World wants us to believe in Him and Him alone for our salvation and way into the Light. Darkness can be scary. For those of us with poor vision anyway, it can almost immobilize us. Afraid to move for fear of falling. When we enter any space that is dim or dark, the first thing my husband will move to is the light switch. He cannot see without this light! He has macular degeneration and is legally blind in his right eye and his eyesight in this left eye is poor. So yes, light is very important to him.
But this isn't the light Jesus is speaking of in our verses. He was sent by God, to become the Light that would draw all men. In that darkness that surrounds us - He is definitely the Light at the end of the tunnel. He is the one that we should look to defeat the darkness's of our lives. He loves us, He died for us, He rose for us, went to heaven for us to prepare our homes so that one day we will live with Him for eternity-to-eternity never-ending eternity! As we face so many dangers today in our day to day lives, we can have that know so confidence that when we accepted Jesus as our Saviour, He became our "Guiding Light." Do you know Him as personal Saviour. If not, I beg you today to be saved. How? I'll tell You!
Yes, YOU can KNOW for
sure that YOU are going to HEAVEN!
1. REALIZE THAT YOU ARE
A SINNER
“For all have sinned and come short of the
glory of God” - Romans 3:23
2. REALIZE THERE IS A
PRICE ON SIN
“For the wages of sin is DEATH…” -
Romans 6:23a
3. REALIZE JESUS PAID
THE PRICE FOR YOU
“But God commendeth His love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, CHRIST DIED FOR US.”- Romans 5:8
4. REALIZE SALVATION IS
A FREE GIFT REQUIRING ONLY
A HEART DECISION
“...the gift of God is eternal life though
Jesus Christ our Lord.” - Romans 6:23b
5. REALIZE YOU MUST NOW
CALL UPON JESUS TO SAVE YOU
“For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord SHALL be saved.” Romans 10:10 & 13
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE
SAVED RIGHT NOW, YOU CAN PRAY SOMETHING LIKE THIS:
Dear God, I
confess that I am a sinner. Please forgive me of my sins and save me
today. In Jesus’ name—Amen
"HE IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD!"
1 John 4:19 We love him, because he first loved us.
The Light of the World is Jesus
The whole world was lost in the darkness of sin,
The Light of the world is Jesus!
Like sunshine at noonday, His glory shone in.
The Light of the world is Jesus!
Come to the light, 'tis shining for thee;
Sweetly the light has dawned upon me.
Once I was blind, but now I can see:
The Light of the world is Jesus!
If you don't know Him, come to Him today!
