Shine Bright-Even When the World Feels Dark
- Touching His Hem

This past Friday was my birthday, and with it came a beautiful surprise: several prophetic words spoken over me. Almost every single one carried the same message, let your light shine. Friends reminded me that I carry light, but I know it’s not my own. That radiance is the Holy Spirit within me.
Scripture declares:
God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with Him yet walk in darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.-1 John 1:5–7
The Lord used those birthday words to remind me, and now I’m reminding you, no matter what is happening in the earth, shine bright. His brightness always outshines the darkness.
Reflect
• Where is God asking you to shine when it feels easier to hide?
• What small acts of obedience can reveal His love to someone today?
Apply
1. Stay Fueled: Time in prayer and Scripture keeps your light strong.
2. Be Bold: Speak truth and share hope, even when it’s not popular.
3. Serve Freely: Your kindness becomes a beacon to weary hearts.
Prayer:
Lord, thank You for placing Your light within me. Help me resist the urge to shrink back when darkness presses in. Let Your glory be seen through my words, my actions, and my worship. Amen.
Daily Decree~I am a city on a hill. The light of Christ in me cannot be hidden. Darkness will never overcome His brilliance.
