"...the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow" (James 1:17b)

       Eph 5:7 - Therefore do not be partakers with them; 8 for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light 9 (for the fruit of the Light consists in all goodness and righteousness and truth), 10 trying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord.
       11 Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them; 12 for it is disgraceful even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret. 13 But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.
       14 For this reason it says, “Awake, sleeper, And arise from the dead, And Christ will shine on you.” 

7 Therefore do not be partakers with [those at whom God's wrath is aimed]. 8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord.    Walk as children of light 9 (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), 10 finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.

7 Therefore do not be partakers with [those at whom God's wrath is aimed]. 8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord.    Walk as children of light 9 (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), 10 finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.

"You, LORD, keep my lamp burning;
    my God turns my darkness into light." (Ps 18:28).

7 Therefore do not be partakers with [those at whom God's wrath is aimed]. 8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord.    Walk as children of light 9 (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), 10 finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.

7 But if we walk in the light,

as he is in the light,

we have fellowship with one another,

and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.

1 John 1:7-9

7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.
8 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.

9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

1 John 1:7-9

7 Therefore do not be partakers with [those at whom God's wrath is aimed]. 8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord.    Walk as children of light 9 (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), 10 finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.

11 Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. 12 For the things they do in secret are shameful even to mention. 13 But all things being exposed by the light are made evident.

Avoid the Dark Walk

5:11 Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. 12 For the things they do in secret are shameful even to mention. 13 But all things being exposed by the light are made evident.

4:1 I, therefore, the prisoner for the Lord, urge you to live worthily of the calling with which you have been called, 4:2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love

Gotta Have THIS:

To Do THIS:

5:14 For everything made evident is light, and for this reason it says:
    “Awake, O sleeper!
    Rise from the dead,
    and Christ will shine on you!”

What is your "light" concern today?

• Do you have some habits you need to drag into the light?

• Do you need the courage to expose something?

• Do you need to shine some light on someone you care for?
