Does darkness get darker and light actually get brighter? Or is it possible that exposure reveals darkness and so in our minds it is getting darker? Light then in our words gets brighter as the great awakening crests or revival breaks out. But what if nothing is getting darker or lighter, what if they are being revealed not increasing?

In Mark 5, Jesus encounters a demon possessed man and it says, “Night and day among the tombs and on the mountains he was always crying out and cutting himself with stones. And when he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and fell down before him. And crying out with a loud voice, he said, “What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, do not torment me.”

This man cried out and cut himself, but when Jesus came to Him, he cried out with a loud voice. Volume does not mean an increase in darkness, it actually reveals the exposure of it for the sake of its eviction.

When it seems like the darkness is getting darker, it is not, it is actually only being exposed in order to be disposed. The increase in volume, the increase in attention, the increase in information about what the darkness has been doing is not the darkness getting darker. Darkness has been and always will be dark, it is not increasing it is just being exposed.

With some dark secrets being exposed in our reality right now, it is revealing the exposure in order for the eviction. This is nothing to fear, the enemy has not gained authority. Never forget, “The light shines in the darkness and the darkness does not comprehend it.” (1 John 1:5).

Just like the demon possessed man in Mark 5, when Jesus, the Light, shows up, the darkness is exposed and they know they are caught, they are afraid, that is why the demon possessed man fell down at the feet of Jesus. Darkness is bowing, light is rising. Be encouraged, we have nothing to fear. Www.apostolicresourcecenter.org
