"The Light of Life"

"For with Thee is the fountain of life: in Thy light shall we see light." (Psalms 36:9) Yes, I am still on verse 9, and yet today we have a different title; that's because David uses the first part of this verse to lead into this second part, that says, "in Thy light shall we see light". This is not just any light that David is speaking about, although it could be, because this word for "light" is the same word used in both uses; however, he uses "Thy" before the first usage, thereby specifying that it is God's light that he is speaking of, which really doesn't take much to figure out; but the second "light", since it gets it's property from the first one, is also speaking of God's light, but in this case, it's the Light of Life, primarily the Light of abundant eternal life; which just so happens to be Jesus Christ. This could easily be called "The Light of Prosperity", or "The Light of Instruction", in the sense that both prosperity and instruction go hand in hand with the Light of Life. A good example of what I am talking about is what happens when we receive Jesus into our hearts and we are Born Again: before receiving new life in Jesus Christ we were alienated from God, not able to see or understand the things of God, nor the to see the things that pertain to His eternal kingdom. I can remember how before I was Born Again, I had studied the Scriptures many times, over and over again, reading the Bible, and thinking that I was being given instruction; while all the time, what I was reading had no effect on me beyond what was needed to deal with this world here in the flesh. It's kind of like living by the Ten Commandments, and to study the meaning for each, and then to apply that to our lives; each and every one of those commands deals with our relationship from a worldly perspective; even the command, "Thou shalt not have any other gods before Me", takes the form of instruction as to the things of this world being placed before God. However, when we are Born Again, our perspective changes; being no longer alienated from God and His eternal kingdom, we can now understand  all the eternal things that are being said, not just what is being said that pertain to this life. This was made clear by Jesus when speaking to Nicodemus, as He said, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God". (John 3:3) I we want to see the Light of God, then we must be in His Light... "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved. He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light hath come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest their deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God" (John 3:16-21)
