HIS WORD—A GUIDING LIGHT – Pastor Chris

For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light (Psalm 36:9).

Some people allow past experiences or disappointments to shape their relationship with God, and that’s wrong. God’s Word is and must remain the foundation of your walk with Him. Your daily relationship with Him should be guided by His Word, not by what you have faced or what others say. His Word is the light that guides us every step of the way. Hallelujah!

Remember the words of the psalmist, “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path” (Psalm 119:105). Those who ignore the Word grope in the dark and face so many calamities in life: “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge…” (Hosea 4:6). The Word of God is your life and your light; so never be casual or too familiar with the Word.

Let the truths and realities of the Scriptures stir you up all the time. Love the Word. Hear the Word and acknowledge it; and then live the Word. That’s what you need to win every day. That’s what you need to walk in the supernatural every day. The Lord Jesus said in John 8:12, “…I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.” How do you follow Him?

You follow Him in the Word, through the Word, and by the Word. Then He says, when you follow Him, not only will you not walk in darkness, you’ll have the light of life. In other words, you’ll have answers; you’ll have solutions to life’s issues and problems. You’ll be a victor all the way. You’ll know exactly which way to go and what the direction for your life is. That’s what the Word gives you. Light gives direction. Light shows the way. God’s Word (His Light) illuminates your path to see, apprehend, and walk in the path God has preordained for you—His destiny for your life. Hallelujah!

          PRAYER

Dear Father, I thank you for your Word that is a guiding light in my life, illuminating my path as I fulfil my destiny in Christ, guided by your truth and wisdom. Thank you for granting me answers, solutions and the clarity I need to fulfil my purpose, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
