You are not subject to the power of darkness.

In the Gospel of John 3:20, Jesus says, "For everyone who does evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed."

From the beginning of Creation, God separated Light and Darkness. "And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness." (Genesis 1:4). Because these two things had already been separated by God, they cannot coexist and are incompatible but God has placed Light over darkness, in the book of John 1:5, it says "The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it."

Light and Darkness in the Bible are often used as metaphors to signify the kingdom of God and the kingdom of Darkness, righteousness and evil or Good and Evil. In the book of Ephesians 5:11 it says "And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them." In this verse, the works of darkness refer to evil deeds. The Word of God is showing us, Light and darkness do not mix and are enemies.

What I want you to know, child of God, is that if God has made you Light and you live and act in righteousness, those who are on the side of darkness will rise against you.

If God has made you Light in your family, lineage, or community, or in the place where you work, you carry the destiny of the redemption of your family. The kingdom of darkness ruling over your family or place of influence will rise against you.

So, don't be surprised when people hate and rise against you; it's a spiritual battle. Because you carry something that disrupts their plans.

The good news I bring you today is that even though they rise against you and hate you, they will not prevail! The word of God says, "The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it." (John 1:5). Also, the word of God says, "You shall establish yourself in righteousness; you shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near you. Indeed, they shall surely assemble, but not because of Me. Whoever assembles against you shall fall for your sake. No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is from Me, says the LORD." (Isaiah 54:14-15, 17 NKJV)

So, child of God, there is special protection placed upon you by God, it will shield you from all the evils intended by your enemies. Amen.

Prayer: Thank you Jesus for making me a light in this world, I pray that you make me steadfast in faith, in all challenges, and let my light never dim. Amen.
