Being God’s Masterpiece – His Prized Possession!

Read:

James 1:18 (NLT): “He chose to give birth to us… And we, out of all creation, became His prized possession.”

Ephesians 2:10 (NLT): “For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things He planned for us long ago.”

Act:

Let us be determined this week to:

Take a moment to dwell on the profound truth that God considers every single one of us His prized possession. We are intricately made in His image and set apart for His purposes. When we allow Him into our lives, He rejoices over us with shouts of joy, showering us with His steadfast love and grace. Our lives are not aimless wanderings but intentional journeys, orchestrated by the loving hands of our Creator – The One in Whom we find our identity.

Understand that our value and worth are not determined by the standards of this world, but by the infinite love of our Heavenly Father. We are cherished beyond measure, deeply loved and intimately known by the One who formed us in His image. We are called to live in close communion with our Lord and to walk in step with His plans and purpose for our lives.

Embrace being set-apart and chosen as beloved children of God with humility and gratitude. Let us live our lives reflecting the honour bestowed upon us, seeking to pursue our Father in Heaven, obey His will, and live the life He planned for us down to the finest detail. As we journey through life, may we never forget the preciousness of our relationship with Him and the privilege of being called His masterpiece – The one with whom He is well-pleased and delights in. (Matthew 12:18)

Pray:

Thank You, dear Father, that You call us Your prized possession. Thank You that because of the cross, because of the sacrifice that Jesus made for us, we are precious in Your sight. Help us to remember this day by day and to live in the truth of being your prized possession.

Lord, we come before You today with hearts heavy with questions about our purpose and worth in this world. Sometimes, we just feel so inadequate and unworthy when we measure ourselves against the fleeting standards of society. But thank You for reminding us today of Your eternal truth. You intricately made us out of no other reason than Your love for us. We are not a mistake or just a random product of chance. We are Your masterpiece, fearfully and wonderfully made in Your image. Each of us is Your prized possession, set apart for Your purposes — to glorify You in all we do. Thank You for being so deeply and intimately involved in our lives and for the assurance that we are not alone. We can be in a living relationship with You. Empower us to glorify You in all we do as we seek to fulfil the purposes You have set before us. Amen.
