‘Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ Says the LORD of hosts.
Zech 4:6 (NKJV)

The only way to dispel darkness is to turn on the light.  You cannot vacuum up the dark, sweep it
under the carpet, or push it out of the room. It goes because of Christ in you! You are the light
in this dark world. Let your light shine and the darkness will go.

The light shines in the darkness and the darkness did not comprehend it.
John 1:5 NKJV
