Lamp and light

Dear readers let’s see what the word has for us today in the Bible

In the book of Psalms 119:105 “thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path”

Gods word is practical , fruitful living .

We are all inexperienced in life , we definitely need a guide. God’s Word is that guide. The whole of psalm 119 unfolds manifold features of God’s word, showing how dynamically it will assist us in life’s most practical circumstances. But no single verse focuses this more clearly than verse 105 , which shows how God’s Word lights the way , giving direction for each step (to my feet) and giving wisdom for long range plans (to my path) . In book of Joshua 1:8 “this book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein; for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success” this is the most certain way to both success and prosperity in living also in Psalm 119:130 “the entrance of thy words giveth light, it giveth understanding unto the simple ” here God Word gives wisdom to the simple . Here is the truths specifically pointing toward the Avoidance of making decisions based on human delusion or outright senselessness. Also in Proverbs 6;23 ” for the commandments is a lamp and the law is light ; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life ” here the word reminds us that the reproofs or corrections the Bible gives , are as much a part of the Light it provides as any positive or confirming direction we find therein .

It’s my prayer and it be to everyone reading this confirm . Gods Word to be a Guide, correct , instruct, lead , teach and confirm for your well being .
