TEXT: “And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also” (Gen 1:16).
Let me start by saying that no matter how dense the intensity of the darkness may be, the arrival of light will undoubtedly/definitely create a difference. The greater the light, the thicker the darkness that surrounds it. So beloved, it doesn’t matter the thickness of the darkness surounding you right now, there is solution for you in the light of God that comes through His Word. Don’t be overwhelmed by the thickness of the darkness, instead focus on accessing the light that will repel it.
It is unquestionably known that light rules over darkness any day any time. This means, as we dwell in the light of God’s word, we are to rule and reign over darkness and all activities that are associated with it. In today’s anchor scripture, the Bible says that God created two great lights on the fourth day of creation. The greater light (Sun) He created was to rule over the day, and the lesser light (Moon) to rule over the night.
To rule is to command authority or dominion over something. As a believer in Christ who dwells in God, you have to understand that you are to rule over sin, sickness, failure, disappointment, death, etc, because of the light of God’s word that dwells in you. What you understand you gain mastery over. Jesus said, “…I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12). Our understanding of this gives us mastery over the deception of darkness. You should not be a subject to sin and its vices. You should not be overcome by sickness and diseases and you should not bow in fear to the evils ravaging our land today. Why? You are in the light and darkness and its activities cannot have dominion over you.
I declare today, your dominion over sin, sickness, delay, disappointment or death is established right now, in Jesus name.
I urge you this morning therefore, go for the light of God. Spend time to study the Word of God to contact light that will establish your dominion over darkness. Read the 1 Year Bible Reading plan that comes with MTD devotional daily. Don’t miss a day without reading the day’s portion.
