The Lord Is Our Light, Walk In His Light.

-January 29, 2023-

Good morning happy, Lord’s Day,

“The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid?”

(Psalm 27:1).

If you came over to visit me in my home, you would see how many lights I have in it. I love light. It brightens everything and makes the house warmer. I just put up an outdoor solar light with a motion sensor over my garage. It comes on dimly at night and when there is motion detected, it gets very bright with LED brilliance.

In the spiritual realm we need to walk in the light of the Lord Jesus and His Word. Jesus said, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” David knew the Lord as his light and salvation. When the enemy closed in on him, he found the Lord to be his strength. He asked himself a great question that we should all ask ourselves today, “Of whom shall I be afraid?” It is a rhetorical question; the answer is no one and nothing when we walk with Jesus.

The Bible speaks of us as children of light, who are clothed in the armor of light and walk in the light. We can see where we are and where we are going; The light of God’s truth gives us guidance in this world of darkness. The hymn writer Phillip P. Bliss wrote, “No darkness have we who in Jesus abide— The Light of the world is Jesus; We walk-in the Light when we follow our Guide— The Light of the world is Jesus. Come to the Light, ‘tis shining for thee! Sweetly the Light has dawned upon me; Once I was blind, but now I can see— The Light of the world is Jesus.”

Let us then rejoice in Jesus our Light and follow Him. May we shine our lights before all those who are around. Proverbs 4:18 says, “But the path of the just is like the shining sun, that shines ever brighter unto the perfect day.” Have a bright and blessed Lord’s Day. Stay safe and healthy my friends.

Walking in the Light of Jesus one step at a time,
