The
life of faith is a life of conflict. We live among “the faithless” -
God is “always on their lips, but far from their hearts” (Jeremiah 12:12).
We are called to maintain the faith in the face of “hollow and
deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic
principles of this world’s rather than on Christ” (Colossians 2:8). There is conflict, but there is also victory - “The Lord is with me ... I will look in triumph over my enemies ... “ (Psalm 118:6-8).
"Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you" (Isaiah 60:1). * Let the light of Christ shine. * Let the words of Scripture lead to thoughts of the Saviour. * In Christ, we are called to salvation, sanctification and service. * Be wise – worship the Saviour. Is 60:1-6; Ps 72:1-7,10-14; Eph 3:1-12; Mt 2:1-12
