Light In The Divided
Genesis 1: 1-4
Declarations For 2019 “Say What God Says!”

surety for anyone’s debt.

We are CHARGED to Say What God Says
• In 2020, we’ve been challenged with every single one
of these!
• If we do #8, all the others will be covered.
• I am the light of the World!
• In these times, we are charged to be THE light.
• The Light (Jesus) dwells within us, and it’s up to us to
let THE light shine.
• That’s what brings sight to darkened people.
There’s been more division than ever in the last year...this
side/that side !
(Divide is not a bad thing. There are times and purposes
for division. I’m talking about the type of division that
brings about anger and wrath, that destroys.)
EXAMPLES of subjects that have caused division in
2020:
• Political parties: Trump/Biden
• Racism: BLM/ALM
• Police support/Defund Police
• Masks/No Masks
• Just to name a few
I’m not talking differences of opinions, I’m talking
about divisions.
• People - even those who call themselves Christians -
the family of God, have been so divided this year.
Fighting against each other.
• Webster’s 1828 defines Divided as disunited.
Division is the opposite of unity.
What is our charge? Be the Light!
• First documented words, Gen 1: “Let there be light“
said in love. All He says is in love.

John 3:16-21 NKJV
