Lessons in Dark Places

Many people refuse to be taught lessons of faith when they don’t understand God’s plan beyond what they can see. In John 6:66, those who stopped following Jesus would not go beyond what they perceived with their senses. They trusted only what they saw and felt in their minds and emotions.

When we walk in darkness and have no light, we are to keep our minds stayed upon Him. Very few Christians have allowed themselves to be taught how to do this. If the average church today went through a trial, the majority of its members would leave almost instantly.

People get alone in dark corners because they have never been Spirit-taught. They do not know how to apply knowledge through faith in the midst of darkness, and they don’t have the power to walk in a faith that works by love (Galatians 5:6).

Let us consider this: He is the light of the world.
