According to 1 John 1:5, God is light since he is the one who created it in the beginning (Genesis 1:3), and if you are far from God, then you are living in darkness, and you can’t enjoy the benefits of heavenly light. Most of us have been living in darkness all our lives, lacking Heavenly light, and hence we don’t know what heavenly light is or the different shades of God’s heavenly light
No wonder the devil can pretend to be an angel of heavenly light (2 Corinthians 11:14). Most of the time, the devil appears as a representative of God. He might even appear as an angel sent by God to you, or even as Christ,” or even try to appear as God himself.
That is why we need God to give us the gift of discernment to be able to tell the difference. So that the devil can do the maximum damage to the body of Christ operates inside our churches. That is why Paul warned us in the book of Matthew 24:24, “For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.”
No wonder you hear many churches saying that The Bible is open to different interpretations, but Peter in the Bible said in 2 Peter 1:20, “… that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.” When you hear this, then this is a sign of darkness, and it leads to sin in varying degrees, even leading to various people calling themselves Christians.
Let me give you some examples of false Christs:
“Jesus of Rome”: He is a promoter of idols in the form of wood and stone and is in disagreement with the God of the Bible in various issues. His followers are well known for claiming that the Bible cannot be understood and followed as it is written.
“Jesus of Mecca”: He is a mortal man, a good and learned prophet, who is dead and gone. His followers do not worship him, and do not believe He is a divine Son of Allah.
“Jesus of Prosperity”: He is a fleshy fellow, who feeds his sheep with money and prosperity. His followers are promoting a false gospel of health and wealth. The prosperity gospel movement.
“Jesus of Jehovah’s Witnesses”: The Jehovah’s witness believe that Jesus is a created being just like us and shouldn’t be worshipped as the true God.
“Jesus of the Mormons”: The Mormons believe that Jesus promoted two Bibles. The same Bible as the Christian Holy Book and one exclusive Mormon Bible with the final revelation from God Most High.
“Jesus of Hinduism”: Even some Hindus worship ‘Jesus’ as one of their many gods.
How to Obtain Heavenly Light
When you invite God into your life, light (heavenly light) is the first thing he introduces. Because where there is darkness, there is chaos, confusion, and little to no progress, Remember that darkness is a result of attempting to find truth without the Word of God. Satan presents sin to us as something pleasing and beautiful to be desired, and he presents false teaching as enlightening and life-changing. Millions follow his deceptions simply because they do not know God’s truth.
There are destiny helpers who want to reach you, but because you are separated by darkness, they can’t locate you at all. Hence, they have to first introduce you to the true God, who is light Himself and a giver of light (heavenly light) to his followers. Psalm 119:105,” Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.”
When you are living in darkness, you might miss certain things because your eyes are blinded by this darkness, and you have been seeing things the way people living in darkness see them. For instance, the blind man who was healed by Jesus at one point said, “I see people, but I can’t see them very clearly. They look like trees walking around.” Mark 8:24.
As a result of this darkness caused by the lack of heavenly light, you might miss a good business or a good opportunity. When you are living a life full of darkness, you will not see the traps set by the devil, or the evil people in your life, and you might even end up in a demonic house that will make you pray less, always sick or even get married to a witch, all because you have eyes, but they can’t see as a result of this darkness (Mark 8:18).
When the light (heavenly light) of God shines in your life career or business, it announces it to the rest of the world After all, where there is a carcass, there is where the eagle goes (Matthew 24:28). Remember that darkness and light are metaphors for evil and good. So, if one is predominant, it will attract people to that place or person. They are the driving force behind everything you see or hear in this world.
Always remember that “… if your eye is bad [spiritually blind], your whole body will be full of darkness [devoid of God’s precepts]. So, if the [very] light inside you [your inner self, your heart, your conscience] is darkness, how great and terrible is that darkness!” (Matthew 6:23)
When you live in this kind of darkness, whatever you do or touch is left with a shadow of darkness, which can be sensed or even felt by others, and this might discourage them from helping you. This may lead to failure in all areas of life, irrespective of your qualifications or effort. When your life is controlled by dark powers, it will be like you are pulling or carrying a very heavy load, but because you can’t see the load because you are part of that darkness, you always blame this or that.
Brethren Be careful who you partner with or where you go to because some people or some places are the embodiment of darkness, that is they stand for evil in all its forms.
If you sense that there is a world within a world where whatever you do or touch seems to be controlled from another level, then you need to seek go for deliverance from a man of God or even engage in serious prayers and fasting, which will lead you to arise and shine from that darkness and get into the heavenly light (Isaiah 60:1-3). Always remember that a person without Heavenly light to guide him cannot go very far in this dark world because the devil is always hunting for such people to destroy.
