The Father of Lights


James 1 v 17 says " Every good thing and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation of shadow of turning" 

Light. It is the natural agent that stimulates sight and makes things visible.
It is  Illumination, enlightenment, revelation, renewed understanding,  
radiance, luster, glowing and beaming. 

In essence it is neither tangible, nor perceptible by touch.
Yet it is easily detected it with our senses. 
It is not palpable, solid or concrete.. 
But,  we can easily identify it, and know the absence of it as darkness.

God by definition is light. He is both the light OF the World, and the creator of the light IN the World. 
How wonderful to be a child of the light. To HAVE A father that is the creator OF light and to be a bearer OF that light. 

1 Thes 5 v 5 reads " Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. "

Ephesians 5 v 8 further reminds us " To For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: 9(For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)"

  3. amen!! may this be sealed in our hearts about his beautiful light that we hold-and to give to the world! last night when praying i saw there were sharp flashes of piercing light shooting all over the atmosphere! God showed me that this was Him shooting into all darkness and bringing light. And he said we must focus on HIs light and not the darkness!
