WALK IN THE LIGHT OF THE WORD
(Allow The Word Of God Guide You)
TO THE BIBLE - 1 John 1:7
“But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin."
LET’S TALK
The Word of God is light (Psalm 119:105), and the Scripture tells us to walk in the light as God is in the light. In other words, we’re to walk under the same light in which God dwells and functions. This means we’re to walk in the light of God’s Word. The people of the world can’t understand that light since they’re not born into that realm of life. But we can walk in the light and have fellowship with God, because we’re born of the Word (1 Peter 1:23).
Walking in the light as God is in the light means your judgments and opinions are based on the light of God’s Word. So, instead of forming your opinions from social media trends, peer pressure, or what everyone else thinks is “cool,” you choose to see things the way God sees them. Under that light, you don’t see poverty, sickness, disease, death, failure or impossibilities. When you agree with what the Word says about you, and then confess it and act that way, you’re walking in God’s light. God has given you His Word to light up your path, so there wouldn’t be darkness or uncertainties as you journey through life.
The Bible lets us know that when you walk in the light, the blood of Jesus Christ automatically cleanses you from all sin. The world around us is full of sin, and even the very air we breathe is defiled, and God knows it. Then oftentimes, we do things that are wrong without knowing, but thanks be unto God! He says when you walk in the light, you won’t need to keep asking yourself, “What sin have I committed today?” The blood of Jesus Christ cleanses you automatically!
Learn to walk in the light as He’s in the light. That way, you’ll never be weighed down by the burden or yoke of sin; rather, you’ll be free to serve God and run the faith race without hindrances.
GO DEEPER
1 Timothy 6:16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
1 John 1:5-6 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. [6] If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
1 John 2:8-10 Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth. [9] He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. [10] He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
SPEAK
Dear Father, your Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. I walk in the reality of your Word today, and as I do, I’m guided in the path of prosperity, victory and excellence! There’s no darkness or uncertainties on my path because I walk in the light of your Word, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
