The Way, Truth and LIfe

 AATHAVAN 🖋️ 640 ⛪ October 29, 2022 Saturday

"O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles." ( Psalms 43 : 3 )

Even in the Old Testament people prayed to God as light and truth. We see the same in today's verse, "Send your light and your truth". These are the things that are needed to bring man to heaven, which is the holy mountain.

Although the people of the Old Testament prayed to God, they did not have a clear understanding of God like us New Testament people. They thought that God was a powerful force who could embrace the good and punish the evil. They looked at the Lord with some fear. That means they do not have a clear understanding of God. But they loved and prayed to God.

It was Jesus Christ who taught us to call God as Father. That is, the Lord is not a stranger somewhere; It was Jesus Christ who gave us the understanding that He is our Father.

That is why Jesus Christ said to the Samaritan woman, "Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship. ( John 4 : 22 ) Even today there are people who unknowingly worship light. They worship lights and the sun. They worship light because they think that God is light. But the truth is that even though God is light, all lights are not God.

Yes, the Lord Jesus Christ was the light, the way and the truth that the Jews of the Old Testament unknowingly prayed for. He made this clear to them when he was in the world.

He said, "I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." ( John 8 : 12 )

"I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." ( John 14 : 6 )

In todays verse the prayer was, "O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles." God the Father has sent the Lord Jesus Christ as an answer to this needs of the devotees of the Old Testament. So, He alone can lead us straight to the Holy Mountain.

The Lord Jesus Christ has promised us the Holy Spirit to guide us, the people of this age. Only the Spirit can illuminate our darkness and His words can show the way. Let us surrender ourselves to the rule of the Spirit. He will lead us straight to the Holy Mountain.
