Each of us has a life battle to fight against the intelligent darkness that is seeking to pull us away from God and his righteous path. Sometimes the darkness appeals to something unnoticeable to others like nursing a grudge against a family, member or coworker. There are so many dark emotions, and any of them can become a lever to move us from our grounded position into a place of greater vulnerability.
The devil does his work in darkness.
In this episode of the podcast we're going to break down eight ways the Bible describes the work of darkness, eight layers of it’s presence. It begins with simple ignorance and ends with an eternity in darkness.
Will we escape the darkness? Thankfully, that’s up to us. Jesus is the light of the world and he has come to give light to everyone. We can leave the light and walk with him in the light. He gives us the power and the invitation to come to him and escape the darkness.
“In your light, we see light” Ps. 36.9
Even if you don’t watch the whole video please pay attention to the first two points. They show how darkness generally works in people with religious convictions—people trying to do the right thing. It’s an important point.
