Tabernacle Prayer: 4. Golden Lamp Stand (The Holy Place)

The lamp stand was inside the first set of enclosed curtains, it was a light and a reminder that God will guide us. In the Psalms it says:

'Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.' (Psalm 119:105)

Jesus came as the light of the world to shine a path for us and to light up the dark places in our lives and in this world. Jesus also called us to be light to the world (Matthew 5:14-16).

Spend some time in prayer asking Jesus to shine His light into dark areas of your life that you may draw closer in intimacy with God as you become more like Jesus. Also why not ask Him to show you how to be a shining light to those around you.
