Prayer before the Word:

TODAY’S TOPIC: Light that recreates our world
Text: 2 Corinthians 4:5-15 (NIV):
"4:5. For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.
4:6. For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.
4:7. But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.
4:8. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair;
4:9. persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.
4:10. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.
4:11. For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body.
4:12. So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
4:13. It is written: "I believed; therefore I have spoken." With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak,
4:14. because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you in his presence.
4:15. All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God."
SHOWER (Reflection):
Jesus is the most Lord. He is the light. Every light gives life, removes terrorism, fear, disfavour and failure. Do not bother about the world and terrible happenings around. Once you are in Christ, you become a new creature, image and powerful. Seek Him now. He will do greater things in your life this week...in Jesus name, Amen.
