To all those who loved GOD, John the Baptist was a gift of 'JOY'.  The majority of the Jewish people were living in darkness until John began to preach the principles of the Kingdom of GOD.  Selected by GOD before his birth to light a lamp that would bring forth a light into the lives of GOD'S people.  Everyone who came to hear John preach was blessed mightily! 

Though John's Ministry did not last a long time it shook Israel to it's core.  The 'JOY' of repentance and the confession of sins poured out upon the heart of all true seekers.  The 'JOY' of the LORD exploded in people's lives and joyful worshipers ran home to tell everyone that John the Baptist had brought the Word of GOD once again to Israel.

John's light made the Path of GOD straight for the coming MESSIAH.  You know the rest of the story.
