Lamplight

“No one, after lighting a lamp, puts it away in a cellar nor under a basket, but on the lampstand, so that those who enter may see the light.
The eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye is clear (healthy), your whole body also is full of light; but when it is bad, your body also is full of darkness.
Then watch out that the light in you is not darkness.
If therefore your whole body is full of light, with no dark part in it, it will be wholly illumined, as when the lamp illumines you with its rays.” Luke‬ ‭11:33‭-‬36‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

The light of Jesus is given to every believer saved by the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

That light is not to be put in a cellar, under a basket nor container*¹, nor under a bed*². The light is to give light to all who enter, to all in the house*³.

The light is not for the believer alone, it is to be shared with, given to others.
Jesus is the Light that shines through an obedient, following believer. Your eye is the light to your body.

‭‭to open their eyes so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the dominion of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who have been sanctified by faith in Me.’
Acts‬ ‭26:18‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

So what are you doing with the Light who lives in you?

🌹for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light
Ephesians‬ ‭5:8‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

Is My Lamp Still Lit?

Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, “I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.”
John 8:12 NASB

Do you have have the Light of Life, Jesus Christ?

Jesus, I no longer want to walk in darkness, I surrender my life to follow You, the Light of my life. Amen.

“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
Matthew 5:14‭-‬16 NASB


Jesus, You have made Your own a light in  this world. Let my life shine in this world in such a way that others may see the true Light and glorify the Father in heaven. For Your glory I ask, amen.

“Now no one after lighting a lamp covers it over with a container, or puts it under a bed; but he puts it on a lampstand, so that those who come in may see the light.
Luke 8:16 NASB

Lord God, may I shine the light of salvation to everyone I come in contact with. When my light flickers from fear, embolden me Lord that I may shine even brighter with the light of the gospel so others may know the true Light, Jesus Christ. For Your glory, amen!!

🌹My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be My disciples.
John 15:8 NASB
