Walking In The Light

3 Letters From John – May 18, 2025

John’s message is personal and urgent. He saw, heard, and touched Jesus—and now proclaims the truth so we can have fellowship with God and with one another.
Fellowship isn’t a feeling—it’s a transformation. Real connection with God brings light that reveals sin and cleanses us through Christ.
God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. We can’t claim to walk with God and remain in unconfessed darkness.
The Word of God functions like a motion light. When we open Scripture, it illuminates truth in the dark places of our hearts.
Walking in the light brings cleansing and communion. The same God who reveals sin also removes it through Jesus’s blood.
Isolation blocks fellowship. God calls us into honest, transparent relationships—with Him and with each other.
We need continuous cleansing. Walking in the light isn’t a one-time event—it’s a lifestyle of confession, grace, and growth.

What does “walking in the light” look like in your everyday life?
How have you experienced the difference between knowing about God and having fellowship with Him?
What’s one area in your life where you tend to stay in the dark rather than walk in the light?
Have you ever felt afraid to be honest with God or others? What held you back?
How has the Word of God illuminated something in your life recently?
What would it look like to stir someone else toward love and good works this week?

Practice honesty with God. Confess a hidden struggle this week and ask Him to cleanse you with truth and grace.
Read Scripture with expectancy. Open the Bible daily and ask God to “turn the light on” in your heart.
Initiate reconciliation. If there’s tension or silence between you and someone else, take the first step toward peace.
Encourage someone else. Stir up a brother or sister to walk in the light—through a conversation, text, or prayer.
Refuse isolation. Join a small group, talk with a mentor, or share your struggle with a trusted friend. You’re not alone.
