“And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also” (Genesis 1:16)
In the Scriptures, “light” represent “truth.” Thus, in the same way God made two physical lights (the sun and the moon), one being greater than the other, so also there are greater and lesser truths revealed to us in the Word of God. All the wonderful truths revealed to us in the gospel don’t rank equally; some are greater than others. Your desire should be to always function in the revelation of the greater truths.
Divine healing, for example, is a truth and a blessing from God; it’s wonderful to know that there’s healing available to you no matter the nature of the sickness. But there’s a greater truth to that, and it’s the fact that you can live in divine health every day of your life; living in soundness – never needing to be healed! At no point in the Bible were we told Jesus needed healing for anything – He lived in divine health.
So, in your life, put the Word to work! Search out the greater truths in God’s Word and function continually in them.
