GPP 17: Walking In Light

Behind every tree on mankind’s pathway
Lurks an evil trap designed to ensnare
The lightless soul entranced by its display,
And none is there to warn, or cry, “Beware!”
Then Jesus came to men, with life, and light,
Teaching them to expect the hidden snares;
To avoid the pitfalls, by living right;
Exposing the falsehoods in this world’s wares!
Christ installs His Spirit in believers,
An inner guide that lights the righteous way;
Clearly revealing Satan’s deceivers;
Furnishing light that keeps darkness at bay!
The devil succeeds when shrouded in night;
He’s helpless in the glare of Jesus’ light!

Promise Made: John 8:12—“When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, ‘I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.’ “

“For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)

“That if you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord’, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9)
