Following The Light

And once we ride on the back of the Lord, His word is a lamp unto our feet the Bible says

, a light unto our path. We can discover our design, our purpose. Psalm 119:105, "Your word is a lamp to my feet" What does a lamp do? A lamp illuminates. Then it says, "and a light for my path."What does the light do? It penetrates. God, though, is not going to give us any more light until we step out in the light He"s already shown for us. Once we obey the known, then he"ll reveal to us the unknown. It"s like when you"re driving in your car tonight. Maybe you have a car where the headlights turn on automatically. I don"t know. But you"re driving down some freeway or road and the light shows you just enough of the road or the freeway or your driveway or whatever to give you the opportunity and the ability to drive your car. And then, when you drive your car into the light, it sheds more and more light. And a lot of us are just standing as opposed to stepping out and following the light.

God says, "My word is the lamp. It illuminates the path. My word is the light. It penetrates and shows you where to go." Life is full of decisions. It"s full of umbrellas. What do we do? Do we submit to authority or not? God has placed governmental authority, spiritual authority, educational authority, family authority, and marital authority in our lives for a reason. What"s the reason? He wants us to discover the best. What"s the best? We"re diamonds in the rough and these authority figures chip away the junk to make us into beautiful diamonds.

When we"re under the authority of God, we"re in the place of protection. We"re in the zone. We discover our uniqueness and our true power and octane for living.

The Bible is a love letter. The Bible is a light. Notice, also, the Bible is a lunch. You remember my disciple Doberman pinscher? Well, he ate the Word. We"re to eat the Word. We"re to feed on the Word. Jeremiah 15:16. He said, "When your words came, I (say it with me) ate them; they were my joy and my heart"s delight, for I bear your name, O Lord God Almighty. As I"ve said before, I did not want to come up to the Dallas/Fort Worth area to start Fellowship Church 15 years ago. I did not want to come up here. I love Dallas/Fort Worth, but I told my friends, "Hey, man, there"s too many churches in Dallas/Fort Worth. It"s the belt buckle of the Bible belt. Ed Young Ministries says that there are too many seminaries and televangelists. And when you fly into this place all you see is a bunch of steeples.
