Your word is a lamp for my feet
and a light for my path.
I’ve promised it once and I’ll promise it again:

The Lamp Unto My Feet!
Oct 29
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. – Psalm 119:105. KJV
How prophetic are these words! I often wonder if the psalmist knew that his words were the foretelling of Jesus and how He is the lamp that gives light to our path into righteousness. I do know [...]
Meditating all day on Your Law,
how I have come to love it!

How much subtler than my teachers,
through my meditating on your decrees!
How much more perceptive than the elders,
as a result of my respecting Your precepts!
I refrain my feet from every evil path,

Forever, O LORD, your word
is firmly fixed in the heavens.
Your faithfulness endures to all generations;

If your law had not been my delight,
I would have perished in my affliction.
I will never forget your precepts,
for by them you have [...]
In the Shadow of Your Wings

You have done many good things for me, LORD
just as you have promised.
