steemchurch- From Darkness to Light
1 Peter 2:9 "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light"
God always has a purpose for what He does; He doesn’t just do things. For example, He didn’t just bring you out of darkness, He also transferred you into His marvellous light. Always, He brings you out, to bring you in. Colossians 1:13, “Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son”
Did you notice He didn’t just deliver you from the power of darkness? That alone would have been wonderful, but He went a step further to catapult you to the Kingdom of His love-son. Thus, our opening scripture above reveals your present location: God’s marvellous light; His awe-inspiring light! That’s your domicile; therefore, no darkness in your life.
It brings to mind the words of Jesus in John 8:12 "he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life”. James 1:17 "We’re the children of Light, dwelling in the Light, and the Lord is the father of lights"

Darkness represents sin, death, evil and all the negativities associated with Satan. You’ve been brought out of all that, including sickness, disease, depression, poverty, frustrations, etc., into the gracious and glorious life in Christ; the liberty of the sons of God. 2 Corinthians 4:6 says,“For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness,hath shined in our hearts….”
We see by Him; He’s our light. Speaking prophetically, the psalmist, in Psalm 36:9 says,“For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light. You dwell in God’s light, in His Kingdom of light, where you reign over darkness, manifesting the virtues and excellence of Almighty God.

Appreciate the support. Thanks for giving people like me the opportunity to talk about God
Fine one from you. It is interesting how God can bring us out of darkness to light. It is just like giving sight to a blind man. The feeling is one that shows the abundant joy in the heart. Thanks for sharing on SteemChurch.
It really amazing how the almighty can remove us from darkness and place in everlasting light it just like giving limb to the crippled and voice to the dumb
Thank you for supporting
Its just amasing how the almightycan remove us from darkness and place us in everlasting light,it just like giving limb to the cripple and voice to the dumb
Darkness and light cannot comprehend .
God brought us out of darkness ,through the death of His son Jesus christ .He made us see the light in a different dimension,he made us understand that there is light in christ in christ and sin should be far from us .
So there let us endeavour to work in the light of christ because He has died for us
He is indeed a wonderful God imagine giw we could have been if he never came,imagine how the world could have been if the light was not around to take the darkness away.
It is still our choice to remain in the light because he have given us the will. @iamceaser thanks for that wonderful write up
God definitely brings us from the bad into the good, from darkness into light. This is definitely evident in the ultimate sacrifise that was paid by Jesus Christ on the cross of calvary. We as christians should always strive to remain in the light. There may be temptations in our everyday lives but in the end, we can always remain transformed by the power of Jesus
God loves us dearly and he would never allow us to be swallowed by darkness. This is why he sent his only begotten son to die for us on the cross of calvary.
Your write up is a good one. You can put < center > and </ center > before and after your image url to align your images in center of your text (no spaces between the characters).
Have a great day.

Thank you very much. I spent a lotta time trying to figure out how to do that, I appreciate the support.
It still marvels me how God was able to bring us out of nothingness to existence. How he was mindful of us in that nothingness that he created us. All glory be ascribed unto his Holy name
Interesting one, is only by the works of God that a man who is lost can be brought on track, a man who dwells I'm the darkness can be brought to light
Your article about Spiritual transformation is a great contribution, God transforms our lives, He removed us from darkness and basks with the Light of hope and love from His Heavenly Kingdom.
We should all stay away from darkness!.
