It was dark outside and the little gasoline generator next to the building was pumping out enough power to light the room.
I find that Indians like examples and remember them.
To make my point about the power of God's light over Satan's darkness, I asked the people to watch what I was about to do.
I went over to the door of the room, slowly opened it and simply asked the question ... "When I opened the door did the light in the room shine outside or did the darkness come inside?" Several took a look and they all concluded that when I opened the door the light in the room shined outside and the darkness was defeated. Fact experienced!
The lesson was so simple and so powerful!
Light always conquers dark! Light is the result of power and darkness has no power of it's own. Indeed darkness is simply the absence of light.
God is light, in Him there is no darkness at all.
We are people of light, God's light, for God, not Edison, is the author of light. As Matthew says, we not only are people of light and have the light but we are lights! We are here on earth to turn back the darkness.
CHALLENGE: Go, find a dark corner somewhere and shine, baby shine!
14"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven."
~ Matthew 5:14-16 (New International Version)
