Jesus Christ made a categorical statement in John 18:12, that he is the light of the world and that, whosoever follows him shall not walk in darkness,but shall have the light of life .
What this means is that, the day you accepted Jesus Christ into your life and you made up your mind to follow him, His light which represents his "RIGHTEOUSNESS" is imputed in you.
Therefore you no longer walk in darkness which represents "SIN" because you now have the righteousness of Christ which is His light in you.
Having his light makes you a bona-fide possessor of the light. Possession comes with a responsibility, and Jesus Christ the source of our light expects us to use the light we've got to draw others to him.
Jesus knew, the light we had was not ordinary and he knew he is not going to remain on earth forever. So he admonished us in Matthew 5:14 that we are the light of the world, a city set on the hill cannot be hidden.
So now, the believer has now become full of light. meaning,he no longer walks in darkness but goes about distributing light to all that is in darkness.
This cannot be ordinary, we are more than what we think we are, Therefore we must know who we are and what we have in Christ Jesus.
This will enable us to brighten the corner where we are, and also attract many more into the marvelous light of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Note: You are not just a light but a whole city set on a hill that can not be hidden. A city is made up of all manner of people, the good, the bad, the ugly, the beautiful, soo on and soo forth.
But the beauty of it is that, they are all drawn to the great and marvelous light for transformation, when they are transformed into light, then, the transformational agenda of Jesus is on course.
The believer is an agent of his transformational agenda, let's get to work now. SHINE ON FELLOW AGENT.
