Holy High Beams

If anyone has ever flashed their high beams at you while driving at night you know how annoying that can be. If anyone has kept them on, you know how blinding that can be. In the spiritual realm those who would twist God's truths are like that: annoying and blinding. But God has a better way. The Holy Spirit uses the high beam of the Word of God in the lives of the people of God for the glory of God. He uses His servants in the process.

Gospel truths refresh, remind and revive the soul. God shines the spotlight of the Spirit on His holy Word, to illuminate our hearts to His presence and power. He flashes His holy high beams not to blind us but to remind us. Therefore, Christian, fix your eyes on Jesus without shame or fear, knowing you are cleansed by the blood of the Lamb and are being kept by the power of God. You are, and remain, in Christ, by His doing. 

My hope and aim is to trust God to use me, and every born-again believer, as His instruments of grace, wielding the Sword of the Spirit, to highlight gospel truth that transforms.

Inspired by the Word of God: Matthew 17:1-13; 1 Peter 1:3-5; 1 Cor. 1-2; 2 Tim. 1-2; Romans 15-16.
