From a Candle to a Lighthouse

If we are to become what God wants us to become, it will only come from unprecedented levels of self-sacrifice and transparency.

With the incredible levels of exposure taking place in the world right now, I heard the Holy Spirit declare that He is calling the Body of Christ into Deeper Places of Transparency with Him and each other.
 
If we are to walk in the Light, as Jesus is in the Light, then the fellowship which we will have with Him will cause unbelievable levels of His Glory to be revealed in the Earth through us in the likes of which we have never seen before.
 
I find it interesting that Light is Measurable while darkness really isn’t. We have scales to tell us how much light is coming forth from each source that is producing it, while darkness really cannot be measured. You have darkness and gross Darkness which is a description, not a measurement.
 
“The light of the full moon will be like the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven days [concentrated in one], in the day the Lord binds up the fracture of His people and heals their wound He has inflicted [because of their sins].” Isaiah 30:26
 
With these new levels of Transparency, there is going to come an Increased ability to reflect His Light and His Glory. The Body of Christ is designed, much as the moon is for reflection, for the Moon reflects the Light of the Sun, just as the Church is designed to reflect the Light of Jesus and the Father.
 
The more that the Glass of our lives becomes clearer from greater transparency, the more His Light and His Reflection will be visible to everyone around you. While fear causes us to hide in the darkness, Faith causes us to step out into the Light so that His Glory, Power, and Presence might be revealed to the world around us.
 
A sacrifice of self removes the opaqueness upon the Glass of our lives, to reveal the One Who is in us which is Greater than he that is in the world. As Jesus is revealed, His Glory is revealed as well, and the transformation of everything around us becomes the ensuing result.
 
“I will not speak with you much longer, for the ruler of the world (Satan) is coming. And HE HAS NO CLAIM ON ME [no power over Me nor anything that he can use against Me];” John 14:30
 
I want to be able to declare like Jesus did, that “He (the devil) has no claim on me”, or if you prefer, “He has found nothing in me to grab onto!” If we are to become what God wants us to become, it will only come from unprecedented levels of self-sacrifice and Transparency.
 
May we become so transparent, and so transformed, that when people look at us, that we can say, (like Jesus did) “If you’ve seen Me, you’ve seen the Father!” (John 14:9) May His light shine so bright from each of us, that His Glory is revealed from us like the Sun and may the Earth truly be filled with the Glory of the Lord as the Waters cover the Sea!
 
He’s calling you out, and drawing you in, to become a direct reflection of Himself, embrace the Process, and watch as He causes incredible Light and Glory to manifest forth from your life! Not because of your greatness, but because Greater Is He That Is In You!
