Psalm 119:105 ERV
Your word is like a lamp that guides my steps, a light that shows the path I should take.

Flip the switch! Turn the light on! Light, in whatever form they come, candle, lamp, overhead bulb, flashlight or torchlight, provides visibility for us to see clearly where we’re heading.
Darkness is a shroud that keeps us stagnant! We are bound by invisibility, unable to move progressively, either due to confusion, reduced vision, or fear but the Lord will if we allow Him to become our light and lamp, one that’s not subject to natural forces.
Darkness is the cover for the unrighteous to do wickedness and hide their atrocities according to proverbs 4:19 but verse 18 says the righteous is as a shining light that increases from twilight to noonday splendour, so the course of the righteous increases in purity, success, and prosperity.
Light dawns in the darkness for the upright, scattering like seeds on the path of the righteous according to Psalm 97:11, with the image of light representing God’s guidance for His people. God makes the path clear for the faithful to travel on, that even if they stumble, they will not fall.
Flip the switch! Turn on the light! Why are you groping in the dark? Stumbling about looking for an exit route when the Lord can lead you down a well-lit path?
The light of God that is within us all should expose and drive out the darkness and stop us from stumbling according to Psalm 56:13.
The illumination light of the word of God according to our text is like the lamps set on a pathway to provide light for our feet, as Proverbs 6:23 puts it “For the commandment is a lamp and the teaching a light,
and the reproofs of discipline are the way of life. As a believer, when you find yourself stumbling in the darkness of sin, depression, sickness, pain, and uncertainty, allow the word of God to become a shining light to guide you.
So many in underdeveloped countries probably understand better what it means to live in darkness, without the aid of electricity at night. But, even the absence of physical light should not deter or discourage us as according to John 8:12, being a believer means Jesus becomes our light saying “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life”.
We live in a generation that is getting darker daily and it’s so easy to go with the flow and allow the darkness in but remember that God calls us children light and day in 1 Thessalonians 5:5 to express God’s glory and love, to operate in righteousness and power visible to all and not under the cover of darkness.
We serve the God of light; we see from the beginning in Genesis 1 that the Lord did nothing without light. They say “If you want to give light to others, you must glow yourself, which is what God did for us, gave us His light through Christ but we still must turn the light on through the expression of the fruit of the Holy Ghost according to Galatians 5:222-23.
Christ is the true light of the world and through him alone true wisdom is imparted to the mind that allows us to operate with understanding and knowledge. Turn the light on to see the path laid out for you.
Shalom
