In our lives we must reflect the life, the power and the nature of Christ II

Greetings to you, dear friends! Praise God for this wonderful day He has given us! Thank God for one more opportunity to be filled with His living Word! We have been talking about our destiny as God’s children, and it is to be the light to the world and the salt of the earth. We will only be able to shine in this world if we allow God’s Word to rule our lives. It says in the Bible: 
“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path» (Psalm, 119:105).
 It is God’s Word that starts the light of God in our hearts and leads our steps on the right path: 
 «You will light my lamp; the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness» (Psalm, 18:28).
 It also says in the Bible that we will have God’s light only when we follow the example set by Jesus Christ: 
 «Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life» (John, 8:12).
 As Christ’s ambassadors and the representatives of God’s Kingdom (which is the kingdom of light) we must understand our role and know who we are in Christ. We know that the devil is the ruler and governor of the kingdom of darkness, and he has a program for this earth. But God has made us ambassadors of light so in order to stop the devil from blinding the people’s minds and to open the people’s eyes to the truth of God’s Word. We must teach the truth of God’s Word to the people because God’s Word gives us light. We will shine with the light of God’s truth if we live according to this truth and if we allow God’s Word to rule our lives. We must seek ways to preach and plant God’s Word into the human hearts in the power of the Holy Ghost. It is necessary so that the people living in darkness would be enlightened. When the Bible talks of darkness and the absence of light, it actually talks about ignorance and the lack of insight. Our calling as Christ’s ambassadors and the bearers of His light is to shine the light of the truth into the places ruled by darkness, where there is lack of knowledge and revelation of God. We must fill this earth with the truth of God’s Word. 
«And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free» (John, 8:32).
 Be blessed! Till tomorrow! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

Why do I mention that and why it´s so important when you try to make prayer as your habit. We already discussed it, that prayer is not learning of different methods about how convince God to do our will. Lack of necessity to pray is one of few reasons why believers pray just a little.
