Today’s Living Word – Fireflies

4–5 minutes

Christ speaks prophecy to the Brilliant:

Why are you called to the family of God? For fellowship with me and the Father- yes, but also to promote the success of our family. You are each a brilliant light upon the earth sent to illuminate the truth and to draw others to me and our Father. Like a firefly in the night sky, people can see your beauty and are intrigued to follow you with their eyes to see more.

What if the white lights of those little fireflies became every color of the rainbow? It would make national news for sure! There are many more colors in the rainbow of God – not the seven that you can see with your natural senses, but hundreds of shades of colors in heaven. Most of you cannot see them but I can open your eyes for a glimpse of what is in heaven. When you can see a brighter, clearer picture of who you really are, you will begin to shine more brilliantly.

Ramp up your “photosynthesis” my brethren. Get more of God’s light in each day and begin to grow more rapidly in these days of sudden changes. There will be sunbursts and starbursts and explosions of light all over the planet in the coming months. Be my lights of hope and beacons of peace despite the darkness that prevails upon the earth. You are my lights to the world. You are my hands and feet and carry the good news to all who are taken captive.

Get filled to overflowing with my goodwill – my power to help and heal, and be promoters of God’s love in all you do and say. Say to all, that you are in love with our Father God and in Christ your savior. Tell them of your joy in knowing us and the sweet fellowship we have together. Be shining lights to all who will turn to see, and help them find their way home to God’s heart.

Today’s Written Word

Philippians 2:15 YLT that ye may become blameless and harmless, children of God, unblemished in the midst of a generation crooked and perverse, among whom ye do appear as luminaries in the world,

Exodus 24:10 NLT There they saw the God of Israel. Under his feet there seemed to be a surface of brilliant blue lapis lazuli, as clear as the sky itself.

Job 38:14 NLT As the light approaches,
the earth takes shape like clay pressed beneath a seal;
it is robed in brilliant colors.

Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Philippians 2:15 KJV That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;

Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is lovejoy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

I Peter 1:8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:

A Word of Encouragement

We are called to the family of God for love and fellowship, but also to promote the success of our family. The devil is always trying to steal people away from God’s love and fellowship. Satan gives false hope, false identities, and false realities. God is life, light and health, and we have all of those wonderful qualities to display to others who are seeking His love. I have lived where there are fireflies, and they are delightful to watch. Let’s shine brightly as we walk in God’s love and be lights to draw others to Him.

An Action Item

Christ spoke of the many colors in heaven and how he will give each of us a tour. We can ramp up our photosynthesis as we pour on the Word of God; we become more brilliant and shine even brighter. One of the other ways to shine brightly is to get the lamp shade off of our light bulbs. If unholy or ungodly practices remain present in our lives, we are under the shadow of darkness, like having a lamp shade upon our holy spirit. Let’s be our best for our Lord Jesus Christ each day by living sanctified and getting lots of light from God’s Word each day.
