MFM DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY 2026 MESSAGE
In continuation of our discourse, Jesus instructed that you shine your light before men so that they will be able to see your good works, and God will be glorified. Unfortunately, this light can be prevented from shining.
The very first thing that can prevent this light from shining is sin. God hates sin and detests every act of unrighteousness. Sin separates us from God. As a child of God, you must flee every appearance of evil if you want your light to shine. Sin dims the light. Sinful habits and practices like anger, pride, malice, unforgiveness, hatred, bitterness, revenge, lust, evil imaginations, careless utterances, and so on, would prevent your light from shining. These are traits of the accuser of the brethren, Satan himself. Consequently, anyone who has the attributes of Satan cannot shine the light of God. It is therefore of great importance that you do away with sin and every act of unrighteousness.
PREVIOUS DEVOTIONAL
Your light has only one channel to shine through – your good works. Are your works good or bad? As a Christian, you are expected to be involved in kingdom activities such as soul winning, evangelism and discipleship. Are you hospitable in any way? Will you readily be a Dorcas who cared for the widows? What impact are you making on people around you, in your home, your neighbourhood, your workplace, marketplace, the church and the larger society? How positively have you influenced lives that, with or without words, it can be said that you are a true child of God?
This is a call to re-examine your life and see if you’re still in the faith. You can cry to God for help, so that the light of God in you doesn’t die off. You need to get back to the place of confession and repentance before God, so that He will forgive your sins and restore your joy of salvation. Then, your light will be lighted by the Light of God and you will make a difference as a child of God living in this world of sin and iniquity.
