Is the Light on?

John 1:4--KJV--In Him was life; and the life was the light of men.
Verse 9--KJV--That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
   
     These two verses speak to the fact that Jesus came to open up man's understanding. He didn't come to build churches although churches have been built to worship Him in. He came to enlighten each and every man, woman, boy and girl who would listen to Him. He came to give individuals of any age Godly wisdom and understanding on how to live above the trials that surrounded them. He came to show them how to get out of their ruts. He came to heal an individual's hurts. He came to be our best Friend and to walk with us every day.
     The wisest thing we can do is to re-evaluate our relationship with Jesus Christ. Are we doing only what we have been taught? Are we doing what Grandma used to do so it must be OK? Are we as good as the other church members? Are we doing the same things that the other churches are doing?
     If we read the New Testament we will find that people that hung around Jesus, talked to Jesus, had fellowship with Jesus and listened to what He had to say changed the known world. By their prayers and actions a God-revolution took place that changed lives for the good.
     There is a good reason that the God-revolution has lost it's fire and zeal. We have become complacent with being told how to act and how to worship as a Christian. We are taught theory. We worship with the latest tunes. And we only spend a few moments in prayer.
     Power and life-changing anointing very seldom come from church membership. It comes from a  one-on-one relationship with Jesus Christ, the Word of God made flesh. We should determine in our hearts to stay before Him until our light comes on and then follow that light. Not only will we change but we will have the power to change those around us.
