(Let's feast on it, /s)
There's a certain type of spirit that is drawn to evil like a magnet. It's got a real eagle eye out for it, to ensure that everyone knows all about it, you betcha. It serves to suck all of the oxygen out of a room, then will toss back a couple of molecules, the dependent hordes ever-grateful for their next breath.
Pro 16.27. A worthless man (ish Belial) digs up evil; and in his lips there is a kind of burning fire:

"And the spirit of G‑d hovered upon the waters." (Gen. 1:2) Midrash Rabba explains that this "spirit of G‑d" hovering upon the waters is actually the "soul of Mashiach," a term that refers to the highest possible G‑d awareness/truth awareness that human beings are capable of. The whole point of our six thousand year labor of teshuva and tikun, of trying to grow and evolve, is to stretch and refine our personal and collective vessels, so that this "spirit of G‑d" "this soul of Mashiach" can finally fit inside, embodied as the messianic golden age. Now, it "hovers upon the waters" i.e., the shifting sands of our physical world, waiting for our vessels to evolve and expand enough to finally let it come in.

As Johnny Cash sang, addressing this very issue, what is in view (darkness or light): Keep on the Sunnyside.
To flesh that out so that there won't be any room to question what I've been writing all of this time:
Isa 40.3 A voice cries, Prepare in the wilderness the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God:
I love the earth..... Malchus d’Asiyah
O thought Moshiach (Mashiach or Messiah) was the human who was going to bring on the End of Days.
