How do YOU view His Church? Maybe how we view it has a lot to do with how we treat it?

Revelation 19:6-9 NLT
Then I heard again what sounded like the shout of a vast crowd or the roar of mighty ocean waves or the crash of loud thunder: "Praise the LORD! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns. [7] Let us be glad and rejoice, and let us give honor to him. For the time has come for the wedding feast of the Lamb, and his bride has prepared herself. [8] She has been given the finest of pure white linen to wear." For the fine linen represents the good deeds of God's holy people. [9] And the angel said to me, "Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding feast of the Lamb." And he added, "These are true words that come from God."

As we enter a new year, let us focus on our heavenly Father's power to renew all things. May we see the realization of the dream He has for us. May our hearts be passionately on fire for Him, and our moments consumed in His presence.

Colossians 4:6 NLT says, "Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you will have the right response for everyone."

Our words have the power to build up or tear down, to encourage or discourage, to bless or curse. How we speak to others reflects our relationship with God and our love for His people.

We are called to be gracious and attractive in our conversation, which means we should speak with kindness, respect, and wisdom. We should avoid harsh, rude, or foolish words that can hurt or offend others. We should also seek to make our conversation interesting and relevant, not boring or irrelevant. We should share the good news of Jesus Christ and His love with those who need to hear it.

By being gracious and attractive in our conversation, we can have the right response for everyone. We can respond to their needs, questions, and concerns with compassion and truth. We can also show them the beauty and grace of God in our lives. We can be a light and a salt in this dark and tasteless world.

Let us pray that God will help us to be gracious and attractive in our conversation today and every day.

You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. - Matthew 5:14 NLT

Jesus tells us that we are the light of the world, not because of our own merits, but because of His grace and presence in us. He calls us to shine His light in the dark places, to be a beacon of hope and love for those who are lost and hurting. He wants us to reflect His glory and goodness to everyone we meet.

This is one of my favorite verses in the Bible. It reminds me of who I am in Christ and what He has called me to do. It fills me with joy and confidence to know that I am the light of the world, not because of anything I have done, but because of what He has done for me.

He has saved me, forgiven me, adopted me, and filled me with His Holy Spirit. He has made me a new creation, a child of God, and a citizen of heaven. He has given me a purpose, a mission, and a destiny.

As kingdom light bearers, we are not of this world, but we are sent into this world. We are not here to conform to the patterns of this world, but to transform it by the renewing of our minds. This mandate will require us to not blend in with the darkness, but to stand out as bright and shining stars, influencing the world for Christ.

Jesus is the true light that came into the world to enlighten everyone (John 1:9). He is the light of life that whoever follows Him will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life (John 8:12). He is the light of the world that whoever believes in Him will not remain in darkness (John 12:46). He showed us what it means to be the light of the world by His words and deeds. He spoke the truth with love and grace. He healed the sick, fed the hungry, comforted the brokenhearted, and set the captives free. He loved God with all His being and loved His neighbor as Himself. He laid down His life for His friends and enemies alike. He rose from the dead and ascended to heaven, where He intercedes for us and prepares a place for us.

He also gave us His commands on how to be the light of the world. He told us to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength, and to love our neighbor as ourselves (Mark 12:30-31). He told us to be humble, merciful, pure in heart, peacemakers and seekers of righteousness (Matthew 5:3-10). He told us to share the good news of His kingdom and make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:19-20). He told us to let our light shine before others, so that they may see our good works and glorify our Father in heaven (Matthew 5:16).

Let us be encouraged by this verse today and be the light of the world!

Job 19:25 NLT says, "But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and he will stand upon the earth at last." What a powerful statement of faith and hope! Job was going through unimaginable suffering, yet he did not lose his confidence in God's promise of salvation. He knew that God was alive and in control, and that one day he would see him face to face.

How can we have the same kind of hope as Job? By trusting in Jesus Christ, our Redeemer. He died for our sins and rose again, defeating death and sin. He is preparing a place for us in heaven, where we will live with him forever. He is coming back to judge the world and to restore all things. He is the living hope that we have in this broken world.

Let us cling to this hope and share it with others. Let us not be discouraged by the trials and troubles we face, but remember that God is faithful and he will fulfill his promises. Let us rejoice in the fact that our Redeemer lives, and he will stand upon the earth at last!

Hebrews 11:6 NLT says, "And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him." This verse reminds us that faith is the key to a relationship with God. Faith is not just a mental agreement with some facts, but a personal trust in God's character and promises. Faith is not a passive acceptance of whatever happens, but an active pursuit of God's will and purpose. Faith is not a blind leap into the dark, but a confident step into the light.

Faith pleases God because it honors him as the source of everything we need and the goal of everything we desire. Faith pleases God because it draws us closer to him and makes us more like him. Faith pleases God because it unleashes his power and grace in our lives and in the world. Let us live by faith today and every day, knowing that God is pleased with us and will reward us as we seek him.
