“The people that walked in darkness have seen a great Light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the Light shined.”Isaiah‬ ‭9‬:‭2‬ ‭KJV‬‬. In this chapter there are several beautiful prophecies of Jesus Christ. In this verse the Holy Spirit inspired the prophet to write of spiritual conditions that would exist when Jesus would enter this world. It would be a time when most of the covenant people of God walked in darkness. Their hopes were so dim it seemed as if they were living in the shadow of death. But how things began to change when Jesus came! In the midst of all that darkness came the One Who was the Light of the world! The Light of Hope began to shine in their hearts. Jesus came to rescue fallen man from the hopelessness of sin and satan’s tyranny. What a wonderful thing it was when His glorious light began to shine into hearts that had been walking in darkness. And because of Who Jesus is, His Light has continued to shine for over 2000 years since He was born into this world. To every soul that walks in darkness He is willing to shine the light of His love into their hearts. To everyone who lives in the dark shadow of hopelessness, Jesus will shine the light of hope and make life truly meaningful. Let us place all of our hopes in the Saviour Whose Light is still shining. And let us rejoice that we who once walked in darkness have seen a Great Light.
