Daniel 12:3

Those who are wise will shine as bright as the sky, and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever.

We are to be a light to the world through Christ.

In John 8:12 it says, Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

We should let the Lord shine through us to a dark world. So many people are deceived and confused and need to know the love of Christ.  We are to be the example of God’s love and forgiveness.

You shine best when you are spending time with the Lord and enjoying an intimate relationship with him. When you have this relationship with the Lord, he has access to speak to you about how to love others and how to be a light to the world.  Spending time in the Word of God will help you be sharp in knowing the scripture and being able to share it with others.  As you know him more, he will be able to shine more brightly in you.

Let him fill you up with his spirit and then let it shine bright in your relationships with your family, friends, and co workers. Speak truth to them and tell testimonies of the things the Lord has done for you. It will be an encouragement to them and build their faith.

Prayer: Lord, Let me be shine for you like the brightest star. Let me be an example of your love and grace to others. Let me truly be a light for Jesus for all those that I am around. In Jesus name. Amen.
