Ephesians 5:13-14 (NKJV) 13 But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. 14 Therefore He says: “Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light.”
Nothing can stay hidden forever. Sooner or later, all things are exposed to light. Light will always cause hidden things to be seen.
As humans, we walk in darkness until God shines His light on us and we allow it to expose who we are; sinners in need of a Savior.
Sometimes we may try to hide, to avoid letting God’s light shine on us because we’re afraid and ashamed of what will be seen.
God’s light exposes evil in whoever it shines on. It’s not so much that He shines His light for the sole purpose of exposing evil. He shines it to remove darkness from our lives. What we do with what is exposed is up to us.
As God’s light touches us, it has the power to be life-changing. It wakes us from our slumber, our dead spiritual condition, and breathes life into our spirit, making us brand new!
This is the greatest miracle of all, that He calls to us, “Awake, you who sleep, arise from the dead”!
And as we listen and heed His call, Jesus gives us light, and gives us life anew. Amen
