March 30, 2006 Psa 119:105 KJV Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Who would venture out on a dark road without a light to guide the way? Who would dare cross the forest by night without knowledge of its pitfalls, marshes and ponds? And what of this world we walk in? Can we say that it is lit? Can we presume to travel this world, venture on its roads, traverse its forests, without light and knowledge, and not fall into pits or ravines? It is a fact that after a little while, our eyes actually get used to darkness, and seem to see. While it may feel safe, may God forbid that my eyes feel comfortable with anything but the purity of the His holy light! Today, not tomorrow, but today, let me get a hold of His blessed Word! Let it guide me with the true Light of its Divine principles. Let it shine so bright on my path that it will uncover the pits covered with deceiving boughs; that it may show the seemingly innocent marshes, that it exposes the emulations of the false way that leads to perdition. And yet more, that it may burn the excuses that steal Holy conviction; that it may melt the distractions that delay obedience; that it may deny my heart the comfort of false ignorance. Whatever you say, hear, see, think, decide, presume, propose, teach, learn, write, erase, counsel, prophecy, sing, pray, bring it close, oh so close, to the light of God’s Word that it may be examined like the Passover Lamb, before knocking the gavel of the final verdict of your soul. 1Co 3:13 KJV Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.
