DEVOTIONAL: The Lord is my Light - psalm 27:1
The Lord is my light and salvation, whom shall i fear? The Lord is the strength of my life whom shall i be afraid of? -psalm 27:1
Light is fundamental to every realm of creativity. Genesis 1:3 says "And God said, let there be light: and there was light". God did not start the work of creation without first calling light into existence. Jesus also came to give us divine light. John 1:4 "in him was life and the life was the light of men". The light of God is the key to subdue every work of darkness. John 1:5 "And the light shineth in the darkness and darkness comprehended it not". Your possession of divine light affect your command of exploit in life.
God wants us to live in light not in darkness. The light of the word of God shows us how to reign over darkness. John 8:12 says "then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, i am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall nor walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life".
Light also refers to quality information, knowledge and know -how in one's career field. Ecclesiastes 10:15 says "The labour of a foolish wearieth everyone of them because he knoweth not how to go to the city". You need both spiritual and mental light to do exploits.

1Jn 1:5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
