Rhapsody of Realities TeeVo Devotional 10th August – “A Lamp To My Feet”

(Navigate Through Life With The Light Of God’s Word)

TO THE BIBLE: Psalm 119:105
“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.”

LET’S TALK
Reading today’s opening verse, you’ll immediately notice that the Psalmist used the words “feet” and “path” to express certain vital points. First, God’s Word is a lamp to your feet to help you 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 way illuminated so that you aren’t confused about where you’re going.

Light describes; it shows the way and reveals what exists. Sadly, some people 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 lives. That’s not what God wants for you. Your life’s journey should be on the clear path of progress, victory, and success through His Word.

Jesus said in John 8:12, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” 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 can bring illumination to your spirit and give you insight into reality.

Now, it’s not enough to memorise scriptures; the Word 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 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—your relationships, academics, finances, etc.

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!
