A Christian Hanukkah
Meditation
By Rev.
Lonnie C. Crowe
Hanukkah is
time to rededicate ourselves as the Temple of God. It is a time to remember that Jesus is the
light of the world and has declared that believers, too, are to be light in
dark times. During this Hanukkah season,
let’s join together to celebrate Jesus, the Light of the World, and to dedicate
ourselves to bring light into the darkness.
Read and
meditate on the following each day:
1. John 1:1-5 (NKJV)
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 He was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.
4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.

8. Song of dedication:
This little
light of mine, I’m going to let it shine.
Hide it under
a bush, on no. I’m going to let it
shine.
All around my
neighborhood, I’m going to let it shine.
Satan, you can’t
blow it out. I’m going to let it shine.
Let it shine
for Jesus. I’m going to let it shine.
