Jesus called His disciples to be light bearers. Matthew 5:16 says, “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” What good works?

Ephesians 2:10 says they are the ones, “…prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” Titus 3:8 says, “This is a faithful saying, and these things I want to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men.”

Remember what King Solomon wrote in Ecclesiastes 2:11? It says, “Then I looked on all the works that my hands had done…There was no profit under the sun.” Yet, as we yield to the Holy’s Spirit’s control in our lives, He will lead us specifically into the good works preprogrammed into our seed of conception.

A good work that is purposed for every believer is to be a light bearer in every aspect of our lives. Others are watching to see if what we say about Jesus is lived out in our lives.
