LAKE MARY, Fla., Sept. 30, 2024 /Standard Newswire/ -- Pastor Joakim Lundqvist went through his own period of darkness; however, after seeing the Light of the Lord during a youth revival event, his eyes were opened.
In his book, Shine Your Light, Pastor Joakim Lundqvist encourages us to trust God, so we too can see the One and Only Light in a world of darkness (ISBN-13: 978-1-63641-397-6).
"Almost every religious ideology involves a deity to be worshipped. But that godhead is rarely described in detail," Lundqvist said. "The story of the gospel is completely different. It is one about a God who has created you not just to obey and serve Him but to have an intimate, personal relationship with Him."
Shine Your Light serves to not only reestablish the truths about God in your life but also to illuminate your distinctive, unique light that He wants you to share with the world.
Through Scripture, our eyes will open to these truths: "God is light. All light. Only light. All love. Only love. All good. Only good. And that because He is, He can be trusted."
Why does this reaffirmation of God's nature matter? Because God is light – and nothing but light – we can be certain that any darkness in our lives was not authored by Him. So truly, we can devote our minds, hearts, and souls to the One who lights our way. Once we accept this truth, God will shine His light through us to save the lost.
Amidst the darkness of this world, Pastor Joakim Lundqvist also explains that there are New Age and Eastern religions who have altered the word, "light," to terms like "enlightenment" and "enlightened." Light equals clarity; however, these religions are anything but clear. In turn, "God is the true light – a light that reveals and enables us to see and know His nature, His goodness and love, and allows us the knowledge and assurance we need to trust Him, surrender to Him completely, and live our lives for His glory."
Once you open your eyes to the Light of the Lord, what is the next step? Trust God!
Joakim Lundqvist serves as pastor and international ambassador of Word of Life Church in Uppsala, Sweden. Even in this highly secularized nation, it has grown to a megachurch and become the launchpad of more than nine hundred churches in Europe, Russia, Central Asia, the Middle East, India, and beyond. Word of Life's one‐year Bible school has graduated more than 37,000 students worldwide. Joakim Lundqvist is a highly esteemed speaker, having inspired millions of believers in more than fifty nations to make a difference for Jesus in their world. He is the author of four books translated into several languages. He and his wife, Maria, married in 1987 and have two daughters, one son‐in‐law, and two grandsons.
