RISING VALUE
Today's reading: Isaiah 40-44

"Others died that you might live. I traded their lives for yours because you are precious to me. You are honored, and I love you." Isaiah 43:4 NLT

Satan will try, if he hasn't already this morning, to sell you a sackful of lies before the day is over. He will try to convince you that you are worthless, unnoticed and possibly unloved. He wants to plant a seed of doubt in your heart that the world will inevitably water and fertilize. He desires that your heart be torn and your mind be always questioning.

But God speaks otherwise. His words are true. His statements are factual. His promises can be taken to the bank--and beyond.

You, dear friend, no matter what satan has previously told you, are a valuable member of God's family. So valuable in fact that He sent His Son, His Only Son, His Perfect Son, His Sinless Son, to die on the cross for you!

Would He do that for just anyone?

Would you?
