“LOOK WHAT THE LORD HAS DONE IN 28 YEARS”
PSALM 118:23 — THIS IS THE LORD’S DOING; IT IS MARVELOUS IN OUR EYES.
Church, today I stand here humbled, grateful, and amazed.
Because what you see around you — this ministry, this family, this house — none of this was built by human strength.
It was built by faith, by obedience, and by a God who refuses to let His word return void.
Twenty eight years ago, I didn’t have a plan.
I didn’t have a strategy.
I didn’t have a blueprint.
But I had a yes.
And God took that yes and built a church.

There is still a Timothy… God is calling.
There is still a Lydia… God is opening.
There is still a slave girl… God is freeing.
There is still a jailer… God is rescuing.
There is still a midnight… God is shaking.

“Don’t let somebody else’s darkness steal or quench your light.”

In Scripture, darkness is never just the absence of light—it is the presence of something that wants to consume, confuse, or control. Light is never passive—it pushes back, reveals, and overcomes.

1. What “Darkness” Represents in the Bible
Darkness in Scripture is not one-dimensional. It carries several layers of meaning you can preach from:
A. Darkness = Ignorance or Blindness
• “The people walking in darkness have seen a great light.” (Isaiah 9:2)
Darkness blinds people to truth, identity, and purpose.
B. Darkness = Sin or Moral Corruption
• “Men loved darkness rather than light because their deeds were evil.” (John 3:19)
Darkness pulls people into behaviors that oppose God’s character.
C. Darkness = Oppression, Depression, or Emotional Weight
• David calls it “the valley of the shadow.”
Darkness can be heaviness, despair, or spiritual pressure.
D. Darkness = Demonic Influence
• “The power of darkness.” (Luke 22:53)
Darkness is also a kingdom—a realm that opposes God’s rule.
E. Darkness = Confusion or Lack of Direction
• “If the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness.” (Matthew 6:23)
Darkness disorients, misleads, and destabilizes.

2. What “Light” Represents in the Bible
Light is not just brightness—it is identity, calling, and authority.
A. Light = God’s Presence
• “The Lord is my light.” (Psalm 27:1)
B. Light = Revelation and Truth
• “Your word is a lamp to my feet.” (Psalm 119:105)
C. Light = Holiness and Integrity
• “Walk as children of light.” (Ephesians 5:8)
D. Light = Purpose and Witness
• “You are the light of the world.” (Matthew 5:14)
E. Light = Victory
• “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” (John 1:5)

“Don’t let somebody else’s darkness steal or quench your light.” (Matthew 5:14–16; John 1:5) UNSHACKLED MINISTRIES CHURCH OF PARAMOUNT SUNDAY, MAY 31, 2026“WHEN DARKN...
