We are studying Psalm 27 this week at my church. Every time I read is Psalm I remember how blessed I am to know Jesus as my Savior. This Psalm is written by King David and is a reflection of how his faith in the power of God sustained him through many trials.
David goes back and forth remembering the past when the Lord delivered him. We all can look back and remember a time of trial when the Lord sustained us whether you’re a believer or not it’s not difficult to realize God helped us through tough times. The contrast between light and darkness, strength and weakness are evident.
Psalm 18:28 says, “For you will light my lamp, Lord. My God will light up my darkness.”
I know there were and probably will be times when God delivered my soul from death and kept my feet from falling and I was able to walk with God in that light of the living.
David suffered through many hardships. He made many wrong choices in his life. As I have done, yet God was faithful to forgive.
Placing our trust in God is what saved my life. There are many benefits of salvation. And I can’t help remembering all the light that shined in my darkness because God came after me to save me.
God is light, in Him there is no darkness at all.
