And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.” – John 1:5
Have you ever watched a movie where it seems like evil has won and the hero is cornered, the light appears to fade, and all hope seems lost but in the end, light breaks through, and victory comes unexpectedly?
We know that light exposes what’s hidden inside a dark room. When the Lord came, He exposed sin, revealed the truth that we were all walking toward hell, and offered salvation to all who would believe..
The Greek word for “comprehend” is katalambanō, which means to seize, overtake, or subdue with hostile intent. In other words, the darkness tried to overpower the light but it couldn’t.
When Christ hung on the cross, the devil laughed. he thought he had won. But what satan didn’t realize was that the very moment he celebrated was his own defeat. At the cross, Jesus paid for our sins, conquered death, and took back everything the enemy had stolen from humanity.
Through His resurrection, The LORD Jesus triumphed, ushering in a new day filled with mercy, restoration, and power for all who believe and follow Him. He restored our relationship with the Father, gave us His Spirit to dwell within us, and secured our eternal future in His Kingdom.
It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the world’s brokenness, by wars, corruption, division, and despair. But take heart! darkness does not win. It never has, and it never will. The light of Christ remains undefeated. Jesus said, “I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). He also said, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life” (John 8:12).
Now, walk in the Light! Walk with Jesus!
