Called to Be a Light 🧑🧑🧒🧒
“I will also make You a light for the Gentiles, that My salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.” — Isaiah 49:6
📚 Bible in a Year: Reading for the Day
Old Testament: Jeremiah 1–3
New Testament: John 2–3
💡 Devotional Thought:
God's salvation was never intended to remain hidden. Isaiah points to the Servant who would become a light to the nations. Jesus fulfills this mission and brings salvation beyond every boundary.
In John 2–3, Jesus performs His first recorded sign and speaks with Nicodemus about being born again. Nicodemus had religious knowledge, but Jesus showed him that spiritual transformation requires a new birth.
The church is called to carry Christ's light into places where people desperately need hope.
📝 Application:
Council & Pastoral: Keep evangelism and discipleship central to church ministry.
Men & Ladies: Be a light to your families and workplaces.
Youth & Children: Let your words and behavior show others what Jesus is like.
🤔 Reflection:
Where has God placed me so that I can be a light?
💭 Take Away:
Christ's light in us is meant to reach others.
🙏 Prayer:
Father, thank You for sending Jesus as the Light of the world. Help us shine faithfully wherever You have placed us. Give us opportunities to introduce people to Christ and courage to speak about the new life He offers. Amen.
