1 Peter 2:9 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

Praise God, by the acceptance of Jesus Christ, we’ve been brought out of darkness and into His marvelous light. We are no longer bound by sin, under the curse of the law, or doomed to death. Since God called us out of darkness, let’s not voluntarily go back to the ways of darkness from time to time. 

Through the acceptance of Jesus Christ, we’ve been blessed with the Spirit of God living and leading inside of us. He’s letting us know where to go, what to say, what not to do. When we get that urge to go back in the ways of darkness, if we’re seeking His advice, He’ll let us see the consequences of those actions or explain how those dark ways don’t honor God.

Praise God He called us out of darkness. Let the Holy Spirit keep us out of darkness.
