John 1 : 4-5 — Early-Morning Prayer for Light in Darkness and Renewal of Hope through Jesus Christ

3 A.M. Release — Recorded live here in London, England — from London to Manila, from Manila to Nairobi, from Nairobi to Los Angeles — as the first light of a new day nears, we lift our eyes to Jesus Christ, the true Light that darkness cannot overcome.

Scripture (NIV)

“In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” — John 1 : 4-5 (NIV)

Show Notes

The early-morning hour is when fear often whispers loudest. Around the world, searches rise for “prayer for hope in dark times” and “Jesus Christ light in the darkness.” The truth of John 1 meets that cry: darkness never wins where Christ is present.

From London to Manila, Nairobi to Los Angeles, believers call upon the name of Jesus Christ as the Light of the world. Every shadow, every storm, every silent battle is transformed by His life. When Christ steps into the room, fear loses its power.

This morning we pray for renewed hope for the weary, clarity for the confused, and light for those walking through darkness. Let the light of Jesus Christ shine over our cities, our nations, and our souls.

Let's make Jesus Christ the center of our lives. You know, I've been caught up in religion and all the worlds and the buttons of religion and this institution that I'm in. And I need Jesus, sister and brother. I don't know about you. We need Jesus. Come on, John 1, verses 4 through to 5. The early morning prayer as we pray for light in the darkness and renewal of hope through Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world. Father, we thank you for this beautiful book known as the Word of God. We thank you for the scripture that the Word of God, these scriptures, that Jesus Christ is alive. Father, we thank you that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior, and in him was life. And that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness was not able to overcome it. That is coming from the gospel, the book of John, chapter 1, verses 4 through to 5. Father, we thank you that Jesus Christ is the light of the world. And Lord, we thank you that the light of Jesus is in our lives. We thank you that the light of Jesus Christ is sitting in the skin that we walk in. And Father, we thank you that darkness, dear God, darkness cannot hold us back. But Lord, we walk in the rhythm of glory. And this early morning, this hour, this evening, wherever we are, Father, we believe that the power of God is so strong in our lives today. We believe that we carry Jesus. We believe that we carry the Holy Spirit. We believe that we carry the God of Israel. We believe that this is our daily bread today. Father, the prayer for hope, the prayer for Jesus. Lord, you tell us right now, Lord, we're praying for hope in dark times. We're praying that Jesus Christ is the light in the darkness. We believe in John 1. Lord, our hearts are crying out. We need Jesus. Father, help us in our lives. We need the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Father, wherever we are, from Manila, all the way from Mumbai to Los Angeles, dear God, to New York, to London, dear God, to Lagos, to Las Vegas. Father, we pray for an outpouring of your spirit. Lord, we believe, dear God, in hope. We believe, dear God, there is clarity, not confusion. We believe that the light of the world is through Jesus Christ. And let that light shine, brother and sister, wherever you are. Let the light of Jesus shine over the cities, over the towns, wherever you are. Let the glory of God, Father, we pray for light to shine in the darkness. Lord, we pray for hope and renewal through Jesus Christ. Courage when life feels dark. Clarity and direction in Jesus. God's light to disperse the fear that is around us. Father, we believe that Jesus Christ is healing us. We believe that we are restored from our innermost being. Right now, we pray for families to see the light of Jesus. We ask that the truth will shine through our communities, faith to overcome dark seasons in our lives. We want to make a life application today. Lord, we invite Jesus into our lives. Father, we thank you that Jesus Christ is walking with us and he is the King of kings and the Lord of Lords. Father, I pray for the listeners wherever they are, that they will not fear the darkness, nor the terror, nor the arrow that flies by day. But this is the day that the Lord has made. We shall rejoice and be glad. That the light of Jesus Christ shines in my light today. There is no darkness, because God is with me. And I pray, sisters and brothers, wherever you are, that you will feel the love of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, and you will get your daily bread today. You will get the word of God in your spirit. Whatever nation, whatever town, whatever tribe, whatever tongue you are from, I pray for an outpouring of your spirit. We share this early morning prayer to help those to find Jesus Christ. Lord, we thank you that your word is alive and sharper than a double-edged sword. And today, wherever we are situated across the world, Father, as your word crisscrosses nations, as the Holy Spirit is poured out across this world, Father, we thank you for John chapter 1, verses 4 through to 5. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. Father, I thank you for light today. Let us bear that light. Let us be, dear God, beacons of light today. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. Until tomorrow, let your light shine, because Jesus Christ is with you. God bless. Until tomorrow.
