The Light of Christmas Drives Out Darkness - Love Worth Finding - December 25
December 25, 2025 – The Light of Christmas Drives Out Darkness
Sermon: 1895 Jesus, the Light of the World, part 2
Pray Over This
“And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.”
Ponder This
If you’re in a dark room, and you want to get the darkness out, how would you get the darkness out? Could you take a vacuum cleaner and suck it out? Could you take a shovel and shovel it out? How would you get the darkness out of that room? Turn on the light! When you turn on the light, where does the darkness go? It flees. It goes out. It cannot stay. It is totally powerless against the light.
The sun is incredibly bright. The energy from the sun is indescribable. The sun radiates more energy in one second than Man has ever used or will ever use in the history of civilization.
Yet every now and then, we say, “Well, the sun didn’t shine today.” That’s a lie, isn’t it? If you’ve ever ridden in an airplane, you have seen that. It’s an overcast, foggy, clammy, cold, day, but you get on a plane, and suddenly it’s bright! Down beneath are all the clouds. The sun’s been shining. I want to tell you something: You can block out the light, but you can’t put it out. Rather than praying so much against the powers of darkness, what we need to be doing is realizing the power of light. We need to release the light of the Lord Jesus Christ and bear witness to that light.
- How has Jesus pushed darkness out of your life? How often do you reflect on and celebrate this?
- What are the areas of darkness in your life or in the world around you? Have you invited Christ’s light into those areas? Why or why not?
Practice This
Celebrate the Light of the world today and ask others how they have seen Christ’s light in their lives.
