FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT
Monday – April 27, 2026

Greetings precious saints of God and welcome to new teaching revelation from the Throne of our God. In the image for this teaching, you can see people sitting in darkness with light arising in the distance. They can choose to stay in the darkness or move into the light. Let me ask those with age, with knowledge of the founding of the United States, and some maturity in the Scriptures, have you ever seen or imagined such darkness as we are witnessing?
As I watch the mindless hatred towards President who is working night and day to protect us and return us to our Judea=Christian roots, the “no kings” protests, the raging against ICE, lockstep support by predominately Democrats of transgenderism, abortion, men in girls sports and so on it is astonishing. I often think when I see this of the term “useful idiots”. Thomas Sowell said on May 22, 2003 – “The term “useful idiots” has been attributed to Lenin, as a description of those mindless people in the Western democracies who would always find ways to excuse whatever the Soviet Union did. Columnist Mona Charen’s new book “Useful Idiots” shows that such people are still with us.” It is our assignment dear ones to penetrate the darkness by showing a better way and the path from darkness to light. Come sons of the Most High God let’s arise and shine!
Isaiah 60:1-4 (KJV)
1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
3 And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
4 Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side.
We, the Church must ask ourselves why this is not happening now, or before now? The short simple answer is that the Church as a whole has not arisen, is not shining and people, the heathen or for that matter most in the Church are not seeing the glory of God. The Glory of God is the manifest in the physical realm goodness of God. Here is further instruction from Heaven.
Psalm 82:4-5 (KJV)
4 Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.
5 They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.
As one looks around both saint and sinner are poor, needy, and in the hand or power of the wicked. See this from both the physical and spiritual aspects. Again, recall that there are no physical manifestations without a spiritual origin. The secular foundations and spiritual foundations of the nation and the Church are out of course. Out of course meaning that the founding principles are compromised or absent. The Church is steeped in the traditions of men, doctrines of demons, and sacred cows. Today saint and sinner walk together in darkness. Yes, the saint is going to Heaven but empty handed and not accomplishing the will of God for their lives. Many are in Hell today because of the disobedience of the Church. Listen to what the Lord Jesus said to the one who became the Apostle Paul. He is saying the same thing to you and me.
Acts 26:15-18 (KJV)
15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;
17 Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee,
18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
We, in the light, must intercede for our brothers in darkness as well as the sinners in darkness.
2 Timothy 2:24-26 (KJV)
24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
The sinner is certainly opposing themselves and many in the body of Christ as well for they walk in religious darkness. Look up and rejoice dear ones there is coming a revival with repentance in the Church which will trigger a massive awakening, the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the goodness of God, a massive harvest will ensue and then we are out of here.
Habakkuk 2:14 (KJV)
14 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
TAKE HOME:
- To arise and shine we must walk in love, increase our faith, identify and abandon the traditions of men, the doctrines of demons and every sacred cow.
- People need to see the goodness of God in our lives, and we need to be gentle to direct our brothers away from tradition, doctrines of demons, and sacred cows.
- A day is coming when the earth will be filled with the manifested goodness of God.
As the Lord wills, I will resume this teaching right here tomorrow. I say the Lord bless and keep you and yours. Remember, we love you, the Lord loves you, and there is nothing you can do about either one.
