Thy Word is a Light to My Path

A lamp to my feet is your word, a light to my path. Psalms 119:105

Within my heart I treasure your promise, that I may not sin against you. Psalms 119:11
Everything written before our time was written for our instruction, that we might derive hope from the lessons of patience and the words of encouragement in the Scriptures. Romans 15:4
My son, keep my words, and treasure my commands. Keep my commands and live, my teaching as the apple of your eye; Bind them with your fingers,write them on the tablet of your heart. Say to Wisdom,
All Scripture is inspired of God and is useful for teaching-for reproof, correction, and training in holiness so that the man of God may be fully competent and equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:16-17
