The Visible and the Invisible

“...for the life was made visible.” 1 John 1:1-4



We are usually unaware of what is invisible even if the unseen is actually more essential, more determining of our circumstances, more portentous, and of great consequence and significance. We are not puppets for God gave us the wonderful gift of free will but as St. Paul wrote in Ephesians 6:12, “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”  St. Paul tells us we have enemies arrayed against us, looking for any weakness we have and strategizing schemes to make us fall. 




How important it must be then to know the unseen power we have, the armor God has given us to make us “more than conquerors”. 




“In all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:37-39


Thank You Lord, for the Word was made flesh, was made visible, for us who believe and wish to dwell in Your light. Cast out the darkness! Maranatha! Come Lord Jesus!
