Is your life still empty?

You know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.
1 Peter 1:18-19 New International Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
If value is determined by price, then we are incredibly valuable to God. God took the most precious, priceless treasure of heaven and sent Him to be the price to buy us out of sin and death and adopt us into His family. Silver and gold pale in comparison to that value. He sent His Word, manifest in the flesh, His only begotten Son, to be the firstborn from the dead. Born of a virgin by the seed of God, a flesh and blood man like us, filled with the Holy Spirit of God at His baptism in the Jordan, the only sinless man to ever walk the face of the earth. He sent Him, Jesus, to buy us back with His Life. We were redeemed, bought back by His Blood. Blood sacrificed on the Holy Altar of God, that we might become the righteousness of God in and through Him, Jesus. Receive it, it’s yours, He gave it to you. Only by Faith can you do so, you can NOT earn it!

MY PRAYER…
Precious Father, may I live today and everyday to become fully aware of the awesome price You paid for my life. May my words, thoughts and actions be permeated with a sense of worth and Holiness that comes from my fellowship with You through Jesus. Not so that I may seem important, but so that I may live in Your Holiness and bring honor to Your precious gift to me. Through Him that loves me, my Lord Jesus, I pray.
Amen
