His Word

Psalm 119:105 "Thy Word is a lamp for my feet, and a light unto my path."  

God put together a plan that instructs us on how to have a life that is rich in His success. He provided detailed instructions for building a life that is pleasing to Him thru His Word, but we too often leave the Bible sitting idle and unused, feeling comfortable with our Christian status quo. We throw together a few spiritual sounding phrases from the Word's pages with the hope that somehow this will take care of our problems and go our merry way. 

However, we often find we have too many situations to deal with and not enough phrases to go around. We speak phrases that are long and short, but never get the job done that is needed to be done to handle those situations. We wonder why godly men and woman in the Word were overcomers, but we sure do have a hard time just getting by.

Maybe it’s because the life we put together was with the wrong phases or perhaps you’re using phrases that don’t fit your situation. Since God made us and it only makes sense that He should know what we need to do to build our lives in Him and that's why He gave us His Word and helps us to speak what needs to be spoken at just the right time to make a difference.

So what are you trying to build? A dynamic relationship with Jesus Christ or a Christ-centered family? Godly children? God’s Word is filled with instructions that can help you in every area of your life. That's the good news. The bad news is that you'll never build it properly if you don't read the Bible. God’s instruction manual not only tells you how to build a God-honoring life, it also let's you know about where to find all the tools you will need thru the anointing and empowering of the Holy Spirit. The Bible has what you need when you need it the most.

His Word is a lamp for your feet. It will guide you thru the dark places of discouragement and despair. It will enlighten you when the storms and tempest howl. It will encourage you when all you friends have forsaken you and let you down.

His Word is a light unto you path. It's your path and your alone. No one can walk it for you. Isn't wonderful to know that whatever darkness you encounter can be defeated by the light of the world. That's exactly who Jesus is today and forever.
