Thy word is
a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path (Psalms 119:105).
The
Psalmist used the words, “feet,” and “path,” in the verse above to express
certain key points. God’s Word is a lamp unto your feet to walk or chart your
course through this world. Secondly, he’s telling you about the path in which
you tread. The Word is a light that gives direction and keeps your path
illuminated so that you aren’t confused about where you’re going.
Light
describes; it shows the way, and reveals what exists. Sadly, there’re people
who grope hopelessly in darkness, journeying aimlessly without focus. Others
sit idly by on the sidewalk of life, hoping that whatever will be, will be;
hoping for some “good-luck” in their finances, business, relationships, etc.
That’s not what God wants for you. Your journey in life should be on the clear
path of progress, victory, and success through the Word.
Jesus said,
“…I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness,
but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12). Fill your heart with the Word;
let it be the light by which you find your way through life. Make it your
compass for navigating through the storms of life. God’s Word has the ability
to bring illumination to your spirit, and give you insight into reality: “The
entrance {and} unfolding of Your words give light; their unfolding gives
understanding (discernment and comprehension) to the simple” (Psalms 119:130
AMP).
It’s not
enough to have the Word memorized; it has to gain entrance into your spirit.
When that happens, you receive light and illumination; You see things the way
God sees them. His Word is the true light (John 1:9) that reveals your glorious
inheritance in Christ, and guides you to walk in, and fulfil your destiny in
Him. So, let the Word be the light by which you see all things. Let it guide
you in all your affairs—in your relationships, ministry, academics, business,
finances etc.
PRAYER: Dear
Father, I rejoice at your Word, which guides and sets me on course for
greatness, success and glory in life! My spirit is flooded with your light, and
my path illumined to know and walk in your perfect will always, in Jesus’ Name.
Amen!
