Delivered from the power of darkness

Col 1:12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
Col 1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

We are delivered from the power of darkness, do you understand this? You are delivered from the power of darkness and transferred unto the kingdom of his dear son by the power of the Holy Spirit. Now it is up to us to keep our eyes on Jesus, not on the ugly darkness we have been removed from.

Luke 11:34 The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.
Luke 11:35 Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.
Luke 11:36 If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.

The  Holy Spirit generates light within you. The Spirit of truth gives light to our understanding.  Keep your eyes and mind on Jesus the way the truth and the life.

Col 1:14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

He bought us from the devil and darkness through his blood shed for us. Our sins are forgiven, shouldn't we confess, repent and then forget them? By the power of the Holy Spirit we are kept free, as we choose to walk in the light of truth by faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is Lord of my life. He has overcome sin and the darkness and translated me into His Kingdom, in the light of truth.
