Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, “I am the Light of the world; the one who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.” John 8:12. If the Light of the world was not whole only this facet, Jesus would not be the Light of the world, only mere light that we can get from a lamp or a phone these days. Jesus is the Light of the world because He is whole, He is oneness, and He is the great I Am.
Because He is the Light of the world that means we will not be in darkness but will have the Light of life. Jesus is the light of the world to shine in the places where there is darkness and to take away the darkness which the devil uses for his purpose. What the devil can use for his purpose, God can use for more for His Glory. the darkness is the devil's but when paired/shown with the Light it changes and becomes holy, it is now God's. It is a light that cannot be snuffed out, it is a light that will shine for all eternity, and a light unto our lives.
The Light of the world can do all these things because He is whole and in oneness and the great I Am. While I am in the world, I am the Light of the world. John 9:5. I am mentioning this verse because I think it is important to know that the Light while on earth is the Light of the world and even though that's all it says I believe he is still the Light today. It may not be the same as it was when the Light was on the earth, but I cannot say for I do not know all things. but I believe in today's times the Light is still shining in the darkness and we are to See the Light and go forth accordingly in that knowledge and worship the Light as such.
The Light is the Light of the World but He to me is the Light of my life. I believe when we make it more personal, we tend to take it to heart more. So, for any of the facets, I have talked about and will talk about, make it personal for you so that you take it more to heart. Your relationship isn't with the world and God but with You and God only, so make it personal. As long as you worship and praise God in wholeness you can make it personal in the wholeness and in the facets of him as well. Always seek God in wholeness, for he is the Great I Am.
Dear God
I praise and thank you for who you are in wholeness
Help me to make the relationship I have with you more personal
So that I may take it to heart more and more each day
Let the Light be the guiding light in my life
you are the Alpha and Omega
the Beginning and the End
In you all things were created
I thank and praise you for all things
In Jesus Name
Amen
