It is God's will that as children of God we should be showing examples in every place and at all times. For that to be made possible, we as children need to be empowered by God. And to be empowered means to be given authority.

Joshua 1:8

This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shall meditate therein day and night, that thou mayewt observe to do all that is written therein: for then thou shall make thy way prosperous, and then thou shall have good success "

One of the ways one can get empowered is by studying, meditating and acting on the word of God. One need the holy spirit to be empowered. "But ye shall have receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the world. (Acts 1:8). We must also endeavor to follow Christ who is the light of the world.

Jesus said in Mark that this sign must follow them that believe; in my name they shall cast out demons. To shine for Jesus means living a life that is pleasing to Him and drawing others to Christ with your attitude, what we do or say.
