THE TWO-MODE DIVINE LIGHT

THE SEED

”Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.“ Psalms 119:105 NKJV

Without the knowledge of the Word of God in our hearts, we can make mistakes that can hurt our entire lives. The word of God serves as the light to make us see and receive instructions in our present situation as well as the future. As I was driving one day, I had to change my car’s headlight from a dipped headlight mode to a full beam headlight because it was getting dark and I needed to catch a glimpse of the road ahead. With the full beam mode, I could see farther to be aware of any impending danger. Like the car headlights with different modes, so is the word of God. As we study the Word of God, it shines upon our immediate pathway and farther ahead to guide us.  Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light on my path.” The verse also highlights the importance of not only hearing God’s Word but living accordingly. To live life according to God’s will, we first have to know how He has called us to live. To know that, we cannot rely first on our thinking, but instead, must hear what the Bible says. It was from the reading of God’s words that King Josiah became aware of the doom over his kingdom because they had been going in a different direction from God’s. Even though he couldn’t do much to save the situation, the awareness that brought about his crying and tearing of his royal cloth made God to spare his life from witnessing the pending destruction.

BIBLE READINGS:  2 Kings 22:11-20

PRAYER: Dear God, let your words continue to be a lamp to my feet.
