Your True Identity In Christ
Tuesday, January 27, 2026Key Verse
“Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid” (Matthew 5:14).
Text — Matthew 5:14-16
Message
Light is an essential component of human life; and as we all know, without light our eyes cannot function as expected. Light dispels darkness and reveals hidden things in dark places through its illumination. From the foundation of creation, God knew the implication of darkness and He created light by His declarative power saying: “… let there be light: and there was light.” Believers are likened to light in the scriptures because light dispels darkness. This implies that true believers are to come out of darkness of sin and satanic practices.
Our Saviour Jesus Christ is the Light of the world and His followers cannot walk in darkness because His light radiates through them. If you are not yet born-again, His light cannot shine through you because sin will block it. Therefore, your true identity is the light of God in you empowering you to live righteously. If you are living in sin or darkness, come to Christ to receive light by repenting and accepting Him as Lord and Saviour.
