Insightful, Biblical Devotions
“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden” (Mat. 5:14).
Do you know why unbelievers want us to keep our faith private? Because they fear our influence and our potential to change society once we arise and get on the move. They are frightened so they want to pass laws and restrict us and to protect themselves from our influence as believers. The Christian life is not to be lived inside the church. Your life is to be lived in a society that is decaying, degenerating, full of darkness, evil, wickedness and sin.
We are made for ministry and agents of change. We are made to influence society which is in opposition to almighty God. As soon as you leave the doors of the church your opportunity begins. It begins where you are rejected, disliked, and criticized. How much food can you season as long as you keep the salt in its container? Not any. The nations we live in are degenerating orally in every area. It’s not God’s fault. The main reason for this is that too many of God’s people have the misconception of who we are. What’s our nature? We are salt and light and therefore, to effect change. What’s happening in your office and workplace? Don’t quit because people in your office are unbelievers. That’s the reason God put you there.
