A Devotional Journey Through the Psalms: Psalm 27, Part 2

A Devotional Journey Through the Psalms: Psalm 27, Part 2
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow

The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? (Psalm 27:1a-b).

There is one more thing I’d like to focus upon in verse one of Psalm 27. David tells us the Lord is not only his light but his salvation. This is an amazing and awesome revelation. Just as light is not a thing but a person, so also salvation is not a thing but a person. If we don’t have the person we do not have light or salvation. David’s light and salvation, and our light and salvation, come from the same source, the Lord!

Jesus is our Light and Salvation.

Salvation is not found in our good deeds, our church attendance, or our religious practices. No one else and nothing else can be our Light or our Salvation.

Insight: Jesus never said, “I have the light” but he did say, “I AM the Light.” He never said, “I have the way, I have the truth, I have the life.” but he did say, “I AM the Way, I AM the Truth, I AM the Life.”
