1 Peter 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
By the power of grace and the mighty blood of Jesus, the Lord saved us when we believed on Him. He brought us out of darkness into His marvelous light.
Now we are to “walk as children of light”. How do we do that? We avoid sinful thinking and sinful living. We do it by surrendering our all to the Spirit of God. He will produce within us the peaceable fruit of righteousness.
This isn’t something we should have to be constantly encouraged to do. If we are truly saved, and if we have been truly changed, then holiness should be a way of life for us. 2 Cor. 5:17.
The world needs the light we have to show them. It’s the power of God’s light within us that highlights the differences between us and the lost world around us. Let your light shine.
