Genesis 1:1-3 (KJV)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. [2] And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. [3] And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.


Usain Bolt was on his marks, staring with focus and concentrating on his 100m Olympic men's final race. He could clearly see the finish line. At the blast of the gun, he took off with great strides against rivals as well as the elements and soon, in less than 10 seconds he was taking a victory lap and receiving adulation from the adoring crowd. He was champion for the third time in the Olympics! It is clear that Usain Bolt as a freak of nature athlete, possessed the build, the strength, the belief among other things, and a strong desire to win. But most importantly he could see. He had sight of the finish line from the beginning. Without light in that stadium, he would never have finished the race on his lane and would have probably fallen or would have been disqualified.

The year for many is yet obscure and without form. But for some, the year is bright and the finish line can already be seen. This is not about having set plans. Planning and target setting is good but plans and targets can change overnight. This is about staying in God's presence to receive light (Psalm 119:105).
Like Usain Bolt, staying in the straight and narrow lane of the believer's race without disqualification requires light. We need the Holy Spirit who is our strength and we also need faith which forms our spiritual sight. But we can't run on life's race course without light. Faith isn't blind as some would say "blind faith" and the Holy Spirit will reveal and bring to remembrance that which abides (John 14:26), that is, the Word of God. Faith sees based on the illuminated Word and the Holy Spirit acts based on the illuminated and spoken Word of God.(To be continued).
Go into today thanking God for His word that brings light.
-Chibo E.C.
