Before the sun was formed, before the stars took their place in the heavens, God spoke a single word — and light burst forth from the darkness. That same God, the eternal and ever-present Yahweh, bends low and whispers to each of us today: I am your light. In Psalm 27:1, the Psalmist declares one of Scripture's most intimate truths — 'The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?' This is the only place in the entire Old Testament where God is directly called 'my light' — making Yahweh Ori one of the most personal, most tender of all His covenant names. In this deep Bible study, we trace the golden thread of divine light through 16 scriptures from Genesis to Revelation, from the Psalms to the Gospel of John — discovering what it truly means that God Himself is your light in every darkness.
