The Oil of the Lamp Within Me


You, LORD, keep my lamp burning;
    my God turns my darkness into light.

—Psalm 18:28 (NIV)


Light of my life,


Let the oil of Your Holy Spirit always keep the light of my lamp burning brightly within me—illuminating the path of my heart—as You turn my darkness into glorious light!


When troubles and trials seek to overwhelm me, I thank You that Your great love for me continually brings light into my heart—to comfort my spirit with hope.

Thank You that when I find it hard to see the way which You would have me go, if I step out in faith and believe that You will lead me, You make my way plain before me and order my steps—lighting each next step along the way.

Thank You that Your Holy Spirit is always at work within my heart—to drive out my darkness and to make more space for Christ—so I can live in that place of peace, provision, protection, and sustaining joy that I can only find in Him.

Cause the light of Christ to shine through me, so that others will be drawn to Christ in me—and may experience for themselves the joy of Your Presence and the depth of Your love for them.


Let the oil of Your Holy Spirit always keep the light of my lamp burning brightly within me—illuminating the path of my heart—as You turn my darkness into glorious light!


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
