The first words spoken by God as recorded in the Holy Scriptures are, “LET THERE BE LIGHT.” On that first day of creation, after God created the heavens and the earth, He spoke light into being. Light is a dynamic metaphor throughout Holy Writ—as is darkness.
2 Corinthians 4:7 (NLT)
We now have this light shining in our hearts, but we ourselves are like fragile clay jars containing this great treasure. This makes it clear that our great power is from God, not from ourselves.
