They
shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make
up my jewels.
Malachi
3: 17 KJV
God
promises to hold your right hand and keep you (Isaiah 41: 13,
Isaiah 42: 6). He will lead the blind by a way they do not know
(Isaiah 42: 16).
Your
life is precious in the sight of God. He has a work for you to
do. It is not unfolded to you now, but just walk on trustingly.
Jesus will not allow the enemy to overcome you. Angels are sent
to give you the right words to say and to keep you from sinning
(Psalms 91). Jesus will give you the victory. You are valuable
to Him. You are like an expensive jewel. Jesus gave His life so
that you could choose to be free from sin.
Some
would look at this flower and enjoy its beauty. Others would
only see the spider killing the bee. It is better to enjoy the
beautiful flowers than to get upset and just talk about the bad
things that are happening all around us. The Bible promises are
like flowers. They are to be gathered and enjoyed. God is our
refuge and strength (Psalms 46: 1). So memorize the promises.
Trust in God. Pick big handfuls of sweet smelling flowers and
rest in Jesus' loving arms. You are His jewel.
Did
you know that God sings about you? The Bible tells us that God
sings about us. He rejoices over you when you decide to join His
family. You are very special to Him Zephaniah 3: 17 RSV).
The Lord,
your God is in your midst, a warrior who gives victory; He will
rejoice over you with gladness, He will renew you in His love;
He will exult over you with loud singing as on a day of
festival.
Zephaniah 3:
17 RSV
