PRISM---PRISON---LIGHT---FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!

Prism - " A transparent body used to distribute (or scatter) light."

(Acts 16:19-34)
"...the jailer...put them into the inner prison...

"But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them.

"Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken, and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone's chains were loosed.

"...the keeper of the prison supposed that the prisoners had fled...

"but Paul cauled with a loud voice saying, ' we are all here'.

Then the jailer called for a light,...fell down trembling before Paul and Silas...
and said 'what must I do to be saved?'

"So they said, ' Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.'"

"...and he (the jailer) rejoiced, having believed in God with all his household."


So,...when Paul and Silas were in prison...they became  PRISMS!!!!!!!

JESUS CHRIST ["I am the Light"/John 8:12] shined so powerfully through Paul and Silas...the jailer and all his household were freed and saved!!!!!!! PRAISE GOD INDEED!!!

Now you and I do NOT have to go to prison for His light to shine through us as prisMs!

Lets be willing to let Jesus shine through us WHEREVER we are...through face-to-face conversations, phone, greeting cards, texts, deeds of kindness, and all the ways that He wants to shine through us!!!!!


God is EAGER to fill us with More and More of Jesus/His Light--- in order to free Us from our prisons, AND to shine through us as prisms-----and thus to free many others from prisons of guilt, doubt, sin, fear, addictions, shame, etc.!!!

In order for us to take in more light.....ask God for more of Jesus and the Holy Spirit, and study the Bible---asking the Holy Spirit to teach us and "...guide us into all truth." (John 16:13)

Pray that: "...you may have the richest measure of the divine Presence." (Ephesians 3:19/Amplified Bible).

(Psalm  119:130)  "The entrance of Your words gives light."


A long time ago-----when I was a little boy-(No, there were no dinosaurs then!)  When I was a little boy---there was a children's song "Let your little light shine".

But for you and me...Let us let the BRIGHTEST light---the EVERLASTING LIGHT-JESUS CHRIST shine through you and me!!!!!

FOR THE EVERLASTING GLORY OF JESUS CHRIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
