Proclamation:
"Blessed
are those who have learned to acclaim You, who walk in The Light of Your
presence, Lord. They rejoice in Your
name all day long; they celebrate Your righteousness.” Psalm 89:15-16
Explanation:
This Psalm
was written by Ethan, the Ezrahite, who was distinguished for his wisdom. (1
Kings 4:31) Under the influence of The
Holy Spirit of God Ethan wrote about God’s mercy and truth, the glory of God,
and the happiness of those in communion with Him.
Application:
If we
are honest with ourselves, we will admit that we don't walk in The Light very
well. We can only walk in The Light for
a short while before we fall down and sin in our thoughts, words, or deeds. Sometimes we are like a toddler
learning to walk, we take a few steps then we fall down. When we try to walk in
The Light, we don't get very far before we have a sinful thought and fall. With
the help of The Holy Spirit we get back up and begin again to walk the walk of
the Christian way. It is much harder to
'walk the walk' than it is to 'talk the talk'. Our goal should be to walk in The Light all
day long, every day, in heaven. However,
while we are down here on earth the plan should be to walk in The Light a
little bit longer each time between our falls.
