1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
Genesis 1:1
Whenever there is darkness – its an indication that God is not far off.
Though the waters were dark — there was the Spirit of God — hovering over the face of the waters.
Genesis 1 continues on: 3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 And God saw that the light was good.
In that moment: God. Spoke. Light.
Whenever there is darkness — God is nearby.
Watching.
Aware.
Speaking light into the situation.
Some of us are walking through dark days and may feel like we are surrounded by dark waters – but the Spirit of God is nearby.
Deeply aware of your situation.
Poised to move, speak, act – and bring light to the darkness.
In your darkness – God will speak light.
Hope — where there was no hope.
Peace — where peace cannot exist.
Courage — where fear once ruled.
The light won’t come from something you can see or touch or purchase or secure.
It won’t come from a person.
Light will come by the very Word of God.
That’s why David said in Psalm 119:105 –– “Your WORD is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path.”
The Spirit of God will bring the Light of God by the Word of God.
In the darkness — look for the light that comes from God’s word.
That’s where you will find it.
God is not afraid of the dark – or absent in it.
He speaks light.
He declares hope through His word.
He is hovering over your darkness — and He will bring the light.
