YOU ARE GOD’S PRECIOUS TREASURE
Matthew 13:44, 1Peter 2:9
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. *But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
Just like the man in our first text above sold all he had to buy a field because of the treasure he found in it. God gave His all through Christ to die for the world just so that He could have you to Himself. You are more special, precious and you are valuable to God than you know you are. May the revelation of how special, precious and valuable to God fill your heart today and may you have this consciousness throughout the year.
God wants you to live and carry yourself like His special, precious and valuable treasure. Do not despise or look down on yourself. You are God’s workmanship recreated in Christ Jesus for good works, (Eph.2:10). You are the apple of God’s eyes (Zech.2:8) and you are engraved on the palm of God’s hands, (Isa.49:16). You are the temple of God and God’s Spirit lives in you, (1Cor.3:16).
When a person purchases a special treasure at a very high price, he takes care of it and desires to enjoy that treasure. This year, God will take care of you. Do not be afraid. Just allow God to enjoy you. As God’s valuable treasure, your greatest desire should be to bring God joy and pleasure. Like Jesus, offer your life unto God as a sweet-smelling sacrifice, (Eph.5:1-2).
Prayer:
I thank you, Dear Father, for the great love and value you have placed on me. May my life bring you great joy and pleasure at all times.
