[ The Glory Unveiled ]
Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path. ( Psalms 119:105 )
The word of God is light to our path and lamp to our feet. It is food for the soul, manna for the spirit and it is good for correction and admonition. The reason why it is mandatory for the believer to study the word of God everyday and ideally every morning is this verse of scripture. God’s word is a lamp for our feet and light for our path and so without the word, we walk in darkness. Before we set out to go into the world every day, we need to ensure that we have lighted our path with God’s word. Just as the five virgins in Matthew 25, who did not carry extra oil with them were regarded foolish, so is anyone without a daily dose of the word of God. Because even though it may seem that they are walking in the light of day, they are unapologetically walking in thick darkness. The psalmist also said, he has hidden God’s word in his heart so that he will not sin [walk in darkness], emphasizing the importance of the word of God in our lives. There are so many things the Believer can do without, but the word of God is not one of them. As a result, the word of God is the measure of the amount of illumination in our lives. So let us illuminate our lives daily with the word of God.
Prayer_Bead: The word of the Father, beginning and the end, thank you for making your word available to my soul, spirit and mind. Illuminate my path as I meditate daily on your word.
