But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

Everything God does has an end—an excellent end. He never leaves us hanging or in limbo. Think about what we just read in our theme verse: the latter part says He called us out of darkness into His marvellous light.

It reminds of the scripture in Deuteronomy 6:23, "And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers." He brought us out of darkness, to bring us into His marvellous light. We're now in His marvellous light; we're not journeying into His marvellous light.

In Colossians 1:13, we read something similar; it says, "Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son" (Colossians 1:13). He lets us know that we're not in the arena, the realm or the jurisdiction of darkness; we've been transferred into the Kingdom of God's Love-Son. That's your place of domicile. Hallelujah!

In Deuteronomy 6:23 where it says, "He brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in..." By "thence" He was referring to Egypt. Egypt was symbolic of the world; it symbolized darkness. His purpose for bringing us out of darkness (the world) was to bring us into His Kingdom. His focus wasn't our coming out of darkness; so the celebration isn't that we're out of darkness but that we're in His marvellous light.

Another thought along the same line is in what the Lord said to Paul in Acts 26:18, "To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God..." Again, we see God's purpose: it's to turn from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God and He's fulfilled it! You're in His marvellous light now and that light dispels darkness.

Prayer
I celebrate my glorious life in the Kingdom of God's Love-Son, rejoicing in His Light and dominion forever! I'm enthroned with Christ, and I shine and reign gloriously by grace, through righteousness. My journey in life is one of glory, triumph, success, prosperity, and blessed assurance. Hallelujah!
