Taking Back Christmas: December 24th
As we celebrate Christmas Eve today we want to challenge you to consistently ask yourself the following question today: am I shining God’s light RIGHT NOW? If you find yourself having moments where your actions are not shining for God try to get yourself re-set and recharged so you can start shining again. It’s hard for us to give you a list of suggestions today, because shining your light for Christ is really a lifestyle thing. It’s about living out your faith and the teachings of the Bible in all that you do. When we do that people tend to see it, and God tends to do great things with it. If you’re a bullet point type person we have included some of the things the Bible says about shining your light.
- We shine our light when we do good works and others see it (Matt 4:16)
- When we show love to others we are shining Christ’s light. If our actions cause them to stumble then we are not shinning (1 John 2:10)
- We shine Christ’s light by living all aspects of our life according to scripture (1 John 2:4-6).
- We are able to shine Christ’s light when we are regularly confessing our sins (1 John 1:7-10).
- We shine Christ’s light when we follow God’s ways over the ways of the world (John 3:19-21).
- We shine Christ’s light by telling other’s about Him, so that they too may be saved (Acts 13:47).
