PEOPLE OF LIGHT

DEUTERONOMY 18:10-12 (CEV)
Don’t sacrifice your son or daughter. And don’t try to use any kind of magic or witchcraft to tell fortunes or to cast spells or to talk with spirits of the dead.

The LORD is disgusted with anyone who does these things...

EPHESIANS 5:9-11 (CEB)

Light produces fruit that consists of every sort of goodness, justice, and truth. Therefore, test everything to see what’s pleasing to the Lord, and don’t participate in the unfruitful actions of darkness. Instead, you should reveal the truth about them.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
You are people of light so avoid dark things.

PRAYER
God, thank you for sending Jesus to be the light of the world -- not just a set of directions or a philosophy but a living breathing light that reveals truth by his presence. I don't understand how it is that I'm so attracted to Jesus and at the same time so willing to dabble in darkness on the side. Guide me so that I can sidestep everything that is dark and can actually disarm darkness by shining your light. Amen.
