Unapproachable Light: God

1 Timothy 6:16 says, “Who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see, to whom be honor and everlasting power. Amen.”

As I was meditating on God dwelling in unapproachable light, I was taken back in my mind to the transfiguration. Matthew 17:2 says, “And He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.”

I love Psalm 104:1-2 and often use it in praise. It says, “Bless the Lord, O my soul! O Lord my God, You are very great; You are clothed with honor and majesty, who cover Yourself with light as with a garment, who stretch out the heavens like a curtain.”

Revelation 21:23 says of the New Jerusalem, “The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, for the glory of God illuminated it. The Lamb is its light.”
