YOU Are of Great Value to God...That's JOY!



Have you had your JOY JUICE today?  It will give you insight into your great value in the eyes of God!
           
            So often our enemy, Satan, tries to bombard us with thoughts of inadequacy and discouragement.   He wants us to doubt God’s love and purpose for us.  Never should we question our value in God’s eyes! Genesis 1:26-27 says that we are made in His image, the very image of God.  Psalm 139: 13-16 says that we are fearfully and wonderfully made, and all the days of our lives were written in God’s book before we were ever born, confirming God’s prior knowledge and plan for our lives.

In Ephesians 1:13-14 we are reminded that we are God’s own possession, chosen for the praise of His glory, and that we have an inheritance awaiting us in heaven.  Now….if all of that is true….and the Bible IS the INFALLIBLE, INERRANT WORD OF GOD, then we have great value to God.

If that is not proof enough, think about what God did for you in me in the form of His Son.  His plan from the beginning was that Jesus would come to earth in human form, suffer and die a cruel death on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins. That was the supreme sacrifice which exemplifies just how much God values us as His children.  Though He is not always pleased with our decisions and our choices, He NEVER stops loving us and we do NOT lose our value in His eyes.
           
 What JOY we have in the truth that God loves us and values us as His own!
