Pastor Chris - Walk In His Light

Monday, January 1st
Pastor Chris

```"In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not" (John 1:4-5).```

In John 8:12, Jesus said, "...I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." Again, in John 9:5, He said, "As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world." Light is that which defines, describes and illumines. In Psalms 119:105 the Psalmist writes, "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path."

To live without Christ is to live in gross darkness and utter hopelessness. You can't even know yourself outside Him, for only in Him - His light - is your true identity and personality revealed. The Bible says with Him is the fountain of life: in His light shall we see light (Psalm 36:9). Hallelujah!

If you use all the lights in the world to define your life, you're sure to see things that you don't like. But under His light, you're excellent and full of glory. God is light - His Word - shows who you are, what you have, and your abilities in Christ. You may use the X-rays and see the human bones or anatomy, but only the Word shows the greater One that lives in you.

Apart from showing you your endowments and rights, the Word also produces in you such changes that are consistent with the message it bears. Moreso, the Word leads and direct you in God's perfect will for your life, imparting you with the wisdom to fulfill it.

As you study God's Word and meditate therein, you'll have light as to the specific things you're required to do this new year. You'll have light as to the goals to set, and the definite steps to take in actualizing those goals. You'll have the insight and knowledge to deal excellently in all your affairs. You'll walk in success, health, prosperity, peace, and strength if you would walk in, and see by God's Light - His Word.
