The Lamp That Lights My Way



Your word is a lamp to guide my feet
    and a light for my path.

—Psalm 119:105 (NLT)



 Heavenly Father,


Help me to take up the lamp of Your Word and let it light my way.

You have given me Your Word that I might learn truth from You—truth about You, about myself, about right and wrong and good and evil, and about Your great plan for my life.

When I study Your Word, I discover things I would not know otherwise—because the light of Your Word illuminates the darkness for me—making it possible for me to see Your Truth.

You gave me Your Word to be a lamp to guide my feet, so that when I carry the lamp of Your Word within me, I can see clearly each step that I am taking and I do not have to fall—because of my thoughts, words, or actions—as I move through this life.

You gave me Your Word to be a light for my path, so that as I move forward in faith—trusting You to continue to illuminate the path before me and knowing that only You know the turns my path might take—You will safely lead me all the way home to You.


Help me to take up the lamp of Your Word and let it light my way.

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
