THE MOST EXPENSIVE PRICE

“For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.”

1 Corinthians 6:20 KJV

I read somewhere that somebody had paid the most expensive price ever paid for anything.  That is not a true statement.  The most expensive price ever paid for anything was when Jesus was crucified on the cross for our sins.  He paid the price for your sins and for my sins with His own blood.

Think about it.  Jesus did not have to die on the cross for our sins.  He did not have to leave Heaven and come to earth.  He came to earth and died on the cross because He loves us so much.  John W. Peterson wrote the beautiful heart touching and inspiring hymn “No Greater Love”.

There really was and there never will be no greater love than the unconditional love of our precious Saviour for you and for me.  Are you shouting with happiness yet?  I don’t understand how people can shout and cheer for a sports team but don’t shout and cheer for Jesus.

If ever someone deserves to be praised and adored, it is Jesus, the Saviour of the world.  He is the “KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS”.  What brings tears of happiness to my eyes is to know that one day every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord!

Heavenly Father, how I love You.  I appreciate all You have done for me and all You do for me every day.  Thank You for loving us so much You gave Your beloved Son to die for our sins.  Jesus, I love You with all my heart.  How I long for the day when I will see You face to face.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
