                          Light of the World

I am the Light of the world.  I came to dispel and overpower the darkness.
Wherever My Light goes, evil and sin must flee.  Wherever you My servants go, 
My light also goes.  So take your prayers and your worship, your testimony 
and your touch into the world.  The demons will cower and eventually flee 
as you pray, speak My word and praise and worship Me.

Yes, My armor is given to you for protection and that you may stand firm.  
But it is also provided to you that you would go forth and battle the 
spiritual forces of darkness in all the places that you go in your daily 
life.  Be strengthened in My truth and speak it out into the darkness and 
lies, the false mindsets of this world.  My truth can shatter these false 
teachings and thinking.  Wield My "sword of the Spirit" in the might of My 
Holy Spirit--speaking My word that cuts like a knife through the darkness.

Walk with your shield of faith which will protect you from any and all 
darts of the enemy. Do not be afraid--just remember Who I am, all that I 
can do, and that I am in you and around you.  There is nothing to fear. I 
am counting on you to 'be strong in the Lord' and to move in the strength 
of My might.  Do not be afraid. Go out.

Be mindful that I have equipped you with all that you need to stand firm, 
resist, step out, speak forth and move through the darkness bringing forth 
My light, My truth, My love and My power wherever you go.  I am with you 
always--and greater, greater am I who is in you than anything, any thing, in 
the world.  So go mighty warrior, and I will keep you equipped and protected. 
Do you see what such an army, My army, can do if they comprehend who I am, 
all that I have given them and listen, hear and obey My marching orders?

Go forth!
