Watch Focus December 26th 2025 “Light of the World”
 
From the Watch this Christmas week we focus on John 8:12, “Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”

We take direction from 1 Thessalonians 5:5-6, “You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober.”

As the Church we take great encouragement from John 1:4-5, “In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.”

Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 4:4, “whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.”

We pray for an explosion of the light of the Gospel to shine on the nations!

We pray for the spirit of wisdom and revelation (Ephesians 1:17) to enlighten afresh the Church of Jesus Christ.

We pray the Saints would understand and walk in, Ephesians 5:8-10, “For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.”

Jesus said in Matthew 5:14, “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.”

We pray the Lord would plant His Children into every aspect of our culture carrying the Word of the Gospel, His wisdom, excellence, blessing and being light.

Genesis 1:3, “Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.”

Isaiah 60:1-2,
“Arise, shine;
For your light has come!
And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.
For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth,
And deep darkness the people;
But the Lord will arise over you,
And His glory will be seen upon you.”
