“So we have the prophetic word made more sure to which you do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place until the day dawn and the morning star arises in your hearts” 2 Peter 1:19 (NASB)
We are sharing this verse again, as we did earlier this month. We can see how God revealed Himself to us in the Bible. In this letter Peter is writing about the Old Testament Scriptures. The idea of readily available books was a long time off and the New Testament was being written. Worshipers listened during assembly time to what was read from Old Testament scrolls. Some even listened to the letters written by the apostles such as Peter's letters which were shared. As they listened they were receiving the revelation from God as a light in their world which was a dark place. We might be good to realize that darkness is growing in our world even now and we need the light that His word provides for us until the day when the darkness will be extinguished.
