Guiding light
Light exposes truth
if we were in the middle of the woods at night we would need a light to make sure we knew where we were stepping, or where we are going
running into a tree or tripping over a branch or even falling off a cliff
Light guides us, and protects
There is a Reason why John said “In Him was life and that life was the light of man.
The light shine in the darkness and the darkness cannot over come it.”
Jesus is the light of the world
What is the darkness that we are in?
Identity- The world tells us we need to look this way, acted this way, be this person.
It sells us an image of what success and happiness looks like
it makes broken promises of if you just do this you will be happy
but yet we never find fulfillment
Brokenness- Family/ love ones sometimes hurt us- sometimes abuse us
sometimes there speak words that cut us
sometimes there actions leave wounds that stick with us
Depression- because we are in so much darkness it has become normal so are lives have accepted the results of living in darkness
Light has come a pierced the darkness
Light also guides us
God did not just leave us here in darkness
The word of the Lord is a Lamp that lights our paths
How do we use this light?
I have sworn to keep your righteous rules-
Walking in the ways of Christ - we are allowing God to shape us into His image
God’s righteous Decrees-
You are saved by Grace- now Live like you are
You are now adopted into God’s family- now live like you are
You now have a hope and a future- Start living like it now
Walk in the things of God and God will make you more like Christ
Abide means to remain or stay
In order for light to guide us we must be connected to the source of life which is the light of man
We stay connect to God through prayer and through His Word
as we abide with God- His Spirit produces fruit in us
When we are going through times of trouble and hardship
we only want the words of God to speak to our hearts
We want His truth to Shine in
We don’t to anyone or anything else cause God is the giver of life
“I am afflicted and this stink right now, but you have the life I need!
It is here in Your word!”
We don’t turn to anything else but God and allow His word to speak to our hearts and guide us
Notice the writer is turning to God as the source of Life even when everything is falling apart
Allow God’s word to guide us, leads us to Praising God
We look at our life and we see all that God has done for us and what else can we do put praise Him
A.W. Tozer: “Sometimes I go to God and say, "God, if Thou dost never answer another prayer while I live on this earth, I will still worship Thee as long as I live and in the ages to come for what Thou hast done already.
God’s already put me so far in debt that if I were to live one million millenniums I couldn’t pay Him for what He’s done for me.”
How can we Keep from singing the praise of the God who while we were lost came and saved us
How can we keep from singing the praise of the God who show his love for
And the God who hears our cries, who helps in times of troubles, who in with us and never leaves us
There is also the desire to know the truth of God’s word
“Teach me your Rules”
“Your testimonies are my Heritage forever they are the joy of my heart.”
What God says about us and our future that is our joy here on earth and into eternity
I do not stray from your direction- Because it is the lamp that guides us
God has given us the light of His word but we must follow it
to conform is to allow yourself to be molded by the world- and what are the results?
brokeness
to transform- to change the essential form or nature of something
It is a change of the heart- everything about us is changed through the renewing of our minds through the guiding light of God’s word
Light is here, will we follow it’s guidance?
