God is light

"This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all" (1 John 1:5 KJV). There is no life outside of God. All else is death, and likewise, there is no true knowledge, wisdom, or understanding. Without His Light, everything is all darkness. His light is found in His Word, and His Word sheds light into the life of man. There's nothing other than truth inside the Lord's glorious light, for darkness cannot prevail or dwell around Him. He is the true light, and we, as His children, must be watchful for the counterfeit that is out there in this world, that is made up by the devil himself. Satan disguises himself as an angel of light, claiming to be true, going to and fro, and deceiving and deluding the hearts of men. Satan has been doing this for decades, and he continues to do so. Meanwhile, hell continues to overflow with souls that have fallen into his delusion. Some have fallen from the faith, but others don't know any better. They find themselves following after this false light. The only way to know the truth is to walk and be in fellowship with the Lord, who is the true Light. "For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light" (Ephesians 5:8 KJV). We know what it is like to walk in darkness, with every action and intent of the heart behind it. So, be aware of the darkness. It can come in subtly. Walk as children of light, and constantly be in fellowship with God in the name of Jesus Christ. Then there will be no room for darkness. God bless you. Amen
