Do you stand out in your surroundings or do you blend in?
2 Chronicles 1:1 says, “Solomon the son of David established himself in his kingdom, and the Lord his God was with him and made him exceedingly great.” As Solomon established himself over his kingdom so should we be established over every area of our lives. As Christians, blending is not an option. Ephesians 5:7-11 tells us, “Therefore do not become partners with them; 8 for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light 9 (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true), 10 and try to discern what is pleasing to the Lord. 11 Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them." God is calling for you to be the light so that others may live. Yes, rejecting the things of this world will make you standout and apart from everyone else. The world will come against you, but know this to be true: God is always with you. The Bible says in Deuteronomy 20:1, “When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and seest horses, and chariots, and a people more than thou, be not afraid of them: for the Lord thy God is with thee, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.” You must see this world as being in battle against God and those that belong to God. It’s against you, but is not our God more powerful than anything that can be conceived on this earth. Have faith in this truth. God is always right and this world (get this in your spirit now) is always wrong. About everything. So if you are in agreement with God, then YOU are right and THEY (this world) are wrong. Believe it. Walk in it. We must be the light. As the light we draw others toward Jesus and the Kingdom of God. Be the Light. Philippians 1:27-28 says, “Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel, 28 and not in any way terrified by your adversaries, which is to them a proof of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that from God.” Defeat for them and victory for you!!! Stand in faith for if God is for you, who can stand against you. They may try, but victory will always belong to you. Be blessed!
