Pastor David Okoye says:

STAND OUT

"For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee" .Isaiah 60:2

      Many in challenging circumstances seem not to remember who God has made them. Others in seeking to belong go out of course. This ought not to be you. Realize that as the new creation, you are a gift to your generation. You don’t beg people to relate with you, or let choose you, instead you choose your friends. 2 Corinthians 6:14 tells “be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness?" Some Christians make a lot of compromise in their faith in the bid to balance their relationship with God and their relationship with others but there can be no balance, you are either in light or you are not. For “light shineth in darkness; and darkness comprehended it not” John 1:5
      You’ve got to be the light that will shine in the midst of darkness. God has placed us in different facet of the world as his light. Scripture informs us “For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the lord shall arise upon thee , and his glory shall be seen upon thee” Isaiah 60:2. In the midst of it all, the child of God has to shine brighter, because the thicker the darkness the brighter the light shines. This is the generation where there has to be a clear distinction from the believer and the unbeliever. The proceeding verse of where we read said “and the gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.” As the light of the world, you have got to reprove every work of darkness.

DECLARATION:
I refuse to degenerate my life with the works of darkness, I constantly reprove them cause I am the light of the world.
