Only the Lord can give men spiritual eyes to see their lost and ruined condition. Only the Lord can show men the holy wrath of God against their sin. Only the Lord can reveal the glory of a beaten, scourged, and crucified Christ. Only the Lord can give men a revelation of the exalted risen Christ, ruling the universe and providing for, protecting, and caring for His redeemed. Without this revelation, no man will come to Christ in saving faith.
Have your eyes been opened to see the glorious person and work of the blessed Son of God?
The coming of Jesus brought judgment to the world. The way we relate to Him is a judgment. If we’d rather have darkness than light because our deeds are evil, we condemn ourselves (John 3:19). Moreover, the more we learn of Him, who is the Light, the greater our condemnation (judgment) if we do not receive Him.
Lord, today I want my eyes to be wide open to the loveliness of Your presence. Help me reflect Your light to all I contact.
