'But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin' ( 1 John 1:7).
Walking in the light helps us to see clearly the way God sees things and to share His values. We will seek to live under the controlling desire for God instead of the world. You see, once we were in darkness, walking in the ways of the world. But Jesus called us out of that darkness of sin and death, into His marvellous light. In accepting Jesus as the atoning sacrifice for our sins, we place our faith in Him and His victory over sin and death at the cross; thereby been granted access to the throne room of God's grace. We are told to 'walk in the light,' the light of God's truth - His living Word which testify of Christ, the light of the world. When we walk in the light it brings our life into alignment with the Word of God. It brings a condition of fellowship not only with God but with other believers. It's also a cleansing from our sin by the blood of Jesus. It is important for us to be desirous of abiding in Christ and walking in His love, because we will continue to experience His saving grace, made possible by His shed blood as an atonement for our sin; and fellowship with God. The more time we spend with Jesus, the more like Him we become. We are transformed into His likeness as we continue to walk in the light of His truth and His righteousness. Christ wants us to walk in the light as He is in the light. That is, living in accordance with His perfect life and character, so we might be like Him and enjoy sweet fellowship with our heavenly Father and with each other. Choose today, to walk and to continue to walk in the light as Jesus is in the light, and to have a desire to have a more intimate fellowship with Him.
Have a wonderful day and a blessed weekend 🌹🌹

The Lord is our strength, and the saving strength of His anointed. It is through Christ our anointed that all our blessings come to us. Here we see David, who is a type of our Lord Jesus, praising God. What about you? Christ had done much for us and has achieved full salvation for us, therefore, praise Him! We, like Israel are encouraged that the Lord is our Strength and salvation. When we seek to be in a relationship with God, He will protect us from our enemies and save us from the crutches of Satan. Just as how Satan attempts to destroy Christ many times, whilst he was on earth, God saved him and will do the same for us. Christ died to save us all, but it is those who trust Him and have a saving relationship with him that will spend eternity with. He is our High Priest, and J...
