    The theme for Dr. David Jeremiah daily devotional for today October 7 2023 is ”Let Your Light Shine” and it is a message highly recommended for today’s spiritual growth and upliftment.

    SCRIPTURE: Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. -Matthew 5:16

    Science tells us that darkness is not a thing. Instead, darkness is the absence of something else: light. If you want to lighten a dark room, you don’t collect the darkness and remove it, you remove the darkness by bringing light into the room.

    Even though biblical writers knew nothing of the science of light, they used words referring to darkness and light more than 330 times. Sometimes the reference was to actual darkness (Genesis 1:2), but more often the terms referred metaphorically to spiritual darkness and spiritual light (Ephesians 5:8-11). The Gospel of John refers to the incarnation of Jesus as the arrival of light in a dark world (John 1:3-9), and Jesus referred to Himself as the “light of the world” (John 8:12). He also said that His followers would be the “light of the world” in His absence (Matthew 5:14). We are to let our light shine by our “good works”—that is, by our life (Matthew 5:16).

    If there is a dark place in your world, shine God’s light in it by letting Christ reveal Himself through your words and works.

    Lamps do not talk, but they do shine.
    Charles Spurgeon
