June 26, 2024 – Do You Know Your True Value?
Matthew 13:45-46
Sermon: 2055 The Strange Mystery of the Precious Pearl
Pray Over This
“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls, who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it.”
Matthew 13:45-46
Ponder This
Why would Jesus go through all the indecencies of the cross? He was purchasing the pearl of great price. The merchant in the parable of the pearl of great price gave all He had. Jesus gave everything He had as they lay Him down on that splintery wood and nailed Him to that cross.
It is impossible to fully understand the anguish, the suffering, the utter midnight of His heart as God, the mighty maker, died for man, the creature of sin. He could have called ten thousand angels, but He didn’t do it. He died alone on Calvary. What does this tell us? Very simply and plainly, we cannot buy Him. He is not for sale. We are not seeking Him. He sought us. Jesus took my sin and your sin. He covered it with the glory of His grace. He made something beautiful out of something that wounded His side. He made us His pearl of great price.
- How are you impacted to remember the price Jesus paid for you?
- Who needs to know the truth that Jesus gave up everything for them?
Practice This
Pray for someone who needs to know this hope of Jesus.
