Five More Words
Yesterday, we noted the words of the Apostle Paul expressed to the Corinthian believers, “I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue” (1 Corinthians 14:19). Here are five more five-word statements from the Bible to encourage you today:
• “Jesus beholding him loved him”(Mark 10:21).
•“Christ also loved the church” (Ephesians 5:25).
•“Rejoice in the Lord always” (Philippians 4:4).
•“I will never leave thee”(Hebrews 13:5).
•“Peace I leave with you” (John 14:27).
With the realization that we are loved with a divine, unchanging love, we can rejoice in the Lord, knowing that He will never leave us. What peace this gives! No matter what we have to do or face in this world that is so hostile to Christ and His followers, these simple, clear, inspired declarations give us the strength and joy we need to live the Christian life.
