Precious

“Unto you therefore which believe He is precious”
(2 Peter 2:7).

There was a time in our life, before we were saved, when we saw no beauty in The Lord Jesus. “And when we shall see Him, there is no beauty that we should desire Him” (Isaiah 53:2). Then after we were saved we saw Him differently. Now we say, “He is altogether lovely” (Song of Solomon 5:16).There are innumerable reasons why He is so precious to us. Here are just a few:

1. He loved us. “The Son of God, who loved me”
(Galatians 2:20).

2. He died for us. “He laid down his life for us”
(1 John 3:16).

3. He redeemed us. “I have redeemed thee”
(Isaiah 43:1).

4. He cares for us. “He careth for you” (1 Peter 5:7).

5. He is coming for us. “I will come again, and receive you unto Myself” (John 14:3).

What a wonderful, precious Saviour we have. Let’s worship and praise Him today, and every day of our life.
