LIGHT Revelation 22:5

There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever.

There will be no more night
Revelation 21:25 On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there.
Zechariah 14:7 It will be a unique day, without daytime or nighttime--a day known to the LORD. When evening comes, there will be light.

for the LORD God will give them light
Isaiah 60:19-20 "The sun will no more be your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon shine on you, for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory. Your sun will never set again and your moon will wane no more; the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your days of sorrow will end."
Revelation 21:23 The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp.

And they will reign for ever and ever
Daniel 7:27 "'Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven will be handed over to the saints, the people of the Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will worship and obey him.'"
Revelation 20:4 I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony for Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

NOTES:
They will reign:
Revelation 5:10 "You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth."
Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy are those who have part in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years.
Daniel 7:18 "'But the saints of the Most High will receive the kingdom and will possess it forever--yes, for ever and ever.'"
