God’s Word Illuminates

Illuminate = To Enlighten, Bring to, give to, to shine or to brighten up, make to see!
Psalm 119:105 Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.
The Psalmist here is letting all of us know that when we allow The Word To Shine, we will be illuminated to the “Possibles” of God!
Matthew 19:26 But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
God’s Word enlightens your mind/heart, and bring you to an understanding of the foundational truths in His Promises, which will brighten you up so that you will be able to see forward and not be concerned with where you are stepping!
Psalm 37:23-24 (NKJV) 23  The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD, And He delights in his way. 24  Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; For the LORD upholds him with His hand.
When you allow The Word To Shine, you will realize that although I may have made mistakes, although I may have done some things I am not proud of, God’s Word has redeem me through The Blood of Jesus The Christ, therefore, my ways are cleansed by taken heed to God’s Word!
Psalm 119:9 How can a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed according to Your word.
With your whole heart devoted to God’s Word, you no longer see or think about the former things because you now know that God has cleansed you from that stain of guilt through Jesus The Christ becoming you, in the earth!
2 Chronicles 15:15 And all Judah rejoiced at the oath, for they had sworn with all their heart and sought Him with all their soul; and He was found by them, and the LORD gave them rest all around.
God’s Word will make you see that rest is near you, that you have peace regardless and you can smile in spite of!
Do not allow your own thinking to water down The Word that God has declared in the earth over your life!
The enemy desires to rob you of your focus, I’ve said this many times, it does not matter of you hear it again. . . But the devil is not your threat, your own thinking is!
When you meditate on His Word, The Light Of God will Shine and illuminate everything that His Word has gone out to accomplish!
Psalm 119:15 I will meditate on Your precepts, And contemplate Your ways.
His Ways are higher, therefore, when you focus on God’s Ways, you will prosper in the very thing you put your hand to!
Psalm 1:2-3 But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.

Meditation Delights You

Delight = To bend, to incline to, to take pleasure in
Many times in your/my life, we find ourselves in dim-light and not delight! When you delight in anything you take pleasure in that and you will be more incline to continue in it!
When we do not allow The Word To Work in our favor, and try to establish our own manifestation of His Word, we become so stiff and brittle, which is why we are so easily broken by anything!
When you rest in His Word, and know that because He said so, it is already done, then you will realize that The Word of God will cause you to become flexible and release you from being so stiff-necked!
Religious, pious individuals have a difficult time with us who are free and know it!
We bend to God’s Word and not their rules & regulations!
When you know that God has sent His Word and that His Word has finished the Work, you will please God and He will increase you and deliver you into His Promise!
Numbers 14:8 If the LORD delights in us, then He will bring us into this land and give it to us, ‘a land which flows with milk and honey.’
2 Samuel 22:20 He also brought me out into a broad place; He delivered me because He delighted in me.
Meditation promotes elevation! Because His Word counsels me, when I allow it to Work and accomplish the thing concerning me. . . Psalm 119:24 Your testimonies also are my delight And my counselors.
We will be able to see clearer that The Testimonies of God, are true and infallible, His Credit Report is impeccable, I believe His Report because I know His Word is true!
The problem is this, we have allowed our thinking to remain miniscule, and not allowed His Word to bring us to, higher heights and deeper depths!
God said that His Ways are higher and thoughts are higher, so when you realize that He has placed His Power in you, then you will begin to elevate!
Psalm 119:32; I will run the course of Your commandments, For You shall enlarge my heart. Isaiah 60:5 Then you shall see and become radiant, And your heart shall swell with joy; Because the abundance of the sea shall be turned to you, The wealth of the Gentiles shall come to you.
Jabez’s Prayer was for the Lord to enlarge his territory, not particularly the land mass, but his thinking!
His name is derived from the statement; “because I bore you in sorrow!” Many will allow that to become their way of life, but instead, we should allow The Word of God to become our way and we will be illuminated to the fact that when we call on God, He will answer!
As God did for Jabez!
Your thinking will expand when you allow His Word to Work as He has set it forth! His Word will encourage you to run on, stay the course, because when you Let The Light Shine, your way will be illuminated and you will be able to see farther which will encourage you to keep going!
When you allow His Word To Work, you won’t become so hung up in despair because of the negatives you experience in this life, you will realize that you are good enough, you are smart enough, you are powerful enough, according to God’s Word, I know that His Mercies are new everyday to me!
And when times of trouble arise, I will have an answer, I will not be afraid, because I trust in His Word! Psalm 119:42 So shall I have an answer for him who reproaches me, For I trust in Your word.
Therefore, I will allow the Light To Shine, so that many will see the Good Works of God and Glorify Him! I cannot quit now because God has brought me too far, and He has given me too much evidence to feel as if I will not make it!
Therefore, I know; Proverbs 4:12 When you walk, your steps will not be hindered, And when you run, you will not stumble.
Because Jesus The Christ has already finished The Way! He has already gone before us and created the path, all we have to do is Let The Light Shine!
