This is one of the Bible verses I stand on when I need to stir up faith + hope inside. The very same God who looked into the darkness of a universe, void and without form, is the same God who looks my life and declares, “Let there be light!” God, the One who spans all of history, knows the rise and fall of every kingdom, designed every atom, and intricately knows every detail of our hearts, shines His light into the darkness of our lives.
Today, in areas where there seems to only be deadness- hopelessness that character traits will never change, financial situations will never improve, relationships will never be restored- He declares light. In Him is no darkness at all, and that is our Great Hope- that by Christ’s indwelling in us, His perfectly whole, healthy, true, clean light can shine into the rest of us, transforming, renewing, changing. Light in the darkness. In faith, let’s ask Him to declare light into our lives today.
