Prayer – Lord, You are the light of the world. Shine in and through me. Illuminate my life...and that of my family, friend, and neighbors everywhere.
The LORD is king! Let the earth rejoice! Let the
farthest coastlands be glad. Dark clouds surround him. Righteousness and
justice are the foundation of his throne. Fire spreads ahead of him and burns
up all his foes. His lightning flashes out across the world. The earth sees and
trembles. The mountains melt like wax before the LORD, before the Lord of all
the earth. The heavens proclaim his righteousness; every nation sees his glory.
Those who worship idols are disgraced—all who brag about their worthless gods—for
every god must bow to him. Jerusalem has heard and rejoiced, and all the towns
of Judah are glad because of your justice, O LORD! For you, O LORD, are supreme
over all the earth; you are exalted far above all gods. You who love the LORD,
hate evil! He protects the lives of his godly people and rescues them from the
power of the wicked. Light shines on the godly, and joy on those whose hearts
are right. May all who are godly rejoice in the LORD and praise his holy name! Psalm 97:1-12
Meditate. Consider Light.
Light illuminates the darkness. In the
beginning there was only darkness…until God created light.
In
the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and
empty, and darkness covered the deep waters. And the Spirit of God was hovering
over the surface of the waters. Then God said, "Let there be light,"
and there was light. And God saw that the light was good. Then he separated the
light from the darkness. Genesis 1:1-4
There was light shining in the darkness—dispelling
the darkness.
The
people who walk in darkness will see a great light. For those who live in a
land of deep darkness, a light will shine. Isaiah 9:2
Do you see a great light? Is that light
shining on you…or in and through you?
Verse of Salvation ~ But let us who live in the light be
clearheaded, protected by the armor of faith and love, and wearing as our
helmet the confidence of our salvation. 1 Thessalonians 5:8
Memory Verse of the Week ~ Ask, using my name, and
you will receive, and you will have abundant
joy. John 16:24b
Friday’s Feast at the King’s Table
