He Owns the Night



"The day is Yours, the night also is Yours..."  Psalm 74:16

Yes, He made the day and He made the night.  Between the hours of 12 noon and 3 pm, there was night-darkness over the land while He "muscled up" under the load of sin and our sins - as well as God's holy judgement.  Only He could triumph in this and He did.

"He said, “It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit." John 19:30

 ...They shall come and shall declare His righteousness to a people yet to be born—that He has done it [that it is finished]! Psalm 22:31

“I will sing to the Lord,
For He has triumphed gloriously!
The horse and its rider
He has thrown into the sea!"

“Your right hand, O Lord, has become glorious in power;
Your right hand, O Lord, has dashed the enemy in pieces." 
Exodus 15, (The Song of Moses)

As you walk through the darkness of night or the darkness that you see in broad daylight in this world-turned-evil, you can be thrilled to know that He owns the night.
