“You are the light of the world – like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. 15No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house.” – Matthew 5:13-15 (NLT)
God has called you light, so your God-given mandate is to shine! In the same way He has made you like salt; you must make impact in big or small measures everywhere you go. When you find a person often struggling to shine their light, it maybe as a result of an identity crisis. To shine as a light and to make an impact as salt, you must know who you are in Christ.
You are not a mistake or an after-thought. God was deliberate when He created you, therefore, for you to operate in utmost capacity, you must recognise His grace that resides in you. You also carry His nature which also makes you incredibly powerful so don’t let your experiences limit you or intimidate you; just keep looking and going forward. Everything God has blessed you with is for His glory so go out and make your light shine!
Confession: I am the salt of the earth and the light of the world; therefore, I will continually radiate in every aspect of my life in Jesus name.
