    Walking As Children Of The Light

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on May 26, 2008
    based on 38 ratings
     | 9,236 views

    Three errors today’s Christians make: 1. Seeing salvation merely as a legal transaction. 2. Believing that being right is more important than treating other people right. 3. Living out of fear rather than faith.

    Walking as Children of the Light Mark 10:32-37 In the Scripture today we have one example of many where the disciples simply do not “get it.” Jesus has just expressed what is facing him, and is more vulnerable than at any other time of his life. But the disciples can only think of themselves. ...read more

    As the disciples waited for the "fire of heaven" to fall on them, they waited with expectation and preparation. It was not sitting still. I was getting ready. We as believers need to be engaged in the same preparation for God to work in us.

    Light The Fire Again Preparing for Spiritual Breakthrough Acts 1:13ff This is a church on fire This is a Holy Spirit place It is our burning desire to lift up Jesus name Let fire burn in every heart To light the way defeat the dark Let the flame of love burn higher This is a church - This is a ...read more

     | 153 views

    Christ calls us to shine His light in everyday life, so that our actions reflect His love and guide others toward God’s glory.

    Some nights feel too dark. The text pings at midnight. The doctor’s tone is flat. The worry refuses to sleep. Yet even in a midnight room, a small nightlight steadies a child. A single candle hushes a whole room of shadows. That’s the math of heaven: a little light makes a life-sized difference. ...read more

     | 5,882 views

    Since we have been made “partakers of His nature” (2 Pet. 1:4) we should learn to imitate (mimic, copy) God. Now that we are children we should resemble our father. That can only happen as we grow more in grace.

    Learning How To Walk Ephesians 5:1-22 Introduction: For you parents, do you remember the thrill of watching your child take that first step? Don’t you think God takes great delight in watching us learn to walk? Note in verse 1 how Paul describes us “dearly loved children”. Paul teaches us that ...read more

    Following those distinctive teachings of Jesus, he calls us to be people of influence in the world around us.

    The word “influencer” has become popular especially as it relates to social media. You can do searches for the top Instagram influencers (or any other media). Mostly this relates to how many followers someone has. One article I read had the top five Instagram influencers (for the moment) - they may ...read more

    Godliness. Any light that we shine into this dark world is not our own. It is a reflection of the Son. That is a good working definition of godliness - shining the light of God’s love into a dark world.

    HOLY HABIT #5   GODLINESS Introduction The moon tonight (July 20, 2025) is at the phase known as Waning Crescent. Only 21.3% of the moon is visible. The last full moon was July 10th. During this phase, over the next five days, the moon will be virtually invisible to the naked ...read more

    The light of God shone in a small fishing village. Some received it. Let’s look at the place where Christian discipleship began, and how they were ready to drop everything to follow the Light of the world, in Matthew 4:12-23.

    There is one idea that Jesus is teaching us here that is life changing for those who believe; here it is: You have an opportunity to live forever because of who Jesus is.

    There were five ways people related with Jesus during his three year ministry. The first group of folks ignored him. They didn't believe he was the Son of God. They never considered him to be the Messiah. Jesus was most amazed by these people that they could ignore the miracles he performed and ...read more

    At the end of Romans 13, Paul reminds Christians of the debt of love they owe and warns them to wake up and put off the deeds of darkness because the return of Christ is nearing.

    A. One of my favorite things to do as a father when our daughters were growing up, was to wake them up in the morning. 1. I loved seeing their sweet, sleepy faces as I woke them with a gentle voice, saying, “It’s time to wake up.” 2. What is your attitude when you wake up? a. I’m a morning ...read more
