The Lamp of Direction

 

Text: Psalms 119:105 (KJV)

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

As believers the word we read or hear lightens our burdens in life. But how you react over light or darkness might not really matter, but what matter is what you do after you have responded to that dark situation. Our scripture of today reminds us that Jesus is the lamp to our feet that gives us direction and the light to our path to see the future. We need Him now more than ever. Isn’t that exciting to know? That means He shows us the right direction and path, where we will not experience any form of delay by being stranded and stumble on the journey. The illumination to our life is the revelation to the Word of God through Jesus.  God is so good that He gives us a glimpse of this right path through the word, and by searching the Word, we also find other paths that will never lead us to darkness again. I tell you, the word of God is inextinguishable, and it banishes shadows of uncertainty, and not only that, but it is what we need to see clearer and farer. Wow!!!! What a great privilege.

Thankfully, Jesus knows the way through whatever wilderness we might be facing, and He is ever ready to bring us out; all we just need to do is to follow him. John 14:6a- Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. I tell you, the path Jesus leads to always takes us to the glorious end, and that is because He has gone before us to make the way straight. Isaiah 45:2- I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron. He is really our pathfinder, and He takes us away from the evil root so that we can walk safely as a lamb to our direction. Proverbs 4:11- I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths. I tell you, no matter the level of difficulty, He will always create a way, or bend the rules and regulations for our sake. So we can start today by using His word personally, practically, and habitually, and by so doing, He will reveal the right path for us. Always remember, the key for escape is already in the word, so search for it today.
