Topic: Cities on Hilltops
Highlights: You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. Matthew 5:14
A City is a human settlement but an abandoned city would turned into ghost town that will be forgotten. Jesus said "You are the light of the world" - Like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. The light of the sun that make things visible for the day shinning on a hilltop city has the best views and ratings in the sight of men. Residents from suburban areas would melt looking from afar the beauty of hilltop cities in all its splendor and give glory wishing they had been the one living in such magnificent edifice. "In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:16
In Matthew 11:20 Then Jesus began to denounce the towns in which most of his miracles had been performed, because they did not repent.
People around you were supposed to wish they were in your shoes and admire you more and more with amazing things about you. But someone who does not know, and then does something wrong, will be punished only lightly. When someone has been given much, much will be required in return; and when someone has been entrusted with much, even more will be required. Luke 12: 48
"...For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Sodom, it would have remained to this day."
To be a good city on hilltop, you should maintain your ratings before God and men and if your case is like Chorazin, you must repent. Matthew 11:21-22
Prayer: Lord as time passes by and by in the difficulty of representation as the light of the world and a city on the hilltop. I ask for grace and mercy to win in your name Jesus. Amen.
