TO THE BIBLE: Psalm 139:14 NIV
“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.”
LET’S TALK
When you read a scripture such as Psalm 139:14, you should have melodies bubbling up in your heart, and it should cause you to dance and shout. It’s describing your peculiarity and uniqueness as a child of God. It says, “You’re fearfully and wonderfully made,” meaning you’re a creation of wonder and not a clone! That should tell you how much God has invested within your spirit, because you’re a peculiar treasure of inestimable value to Him.
In Genesis 12:2, God promised to make Abraham a great nation: to bless him and make his name great. By virtue of being Abraham’s seed, you’re an heir of these great promises. Not only do you carry the blessings with you, you’ve become a dispenser of these blessings everywhere you go. No wonder 1 Peter 2:9 describes you this way: “…You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.”
Take some time today, and meditate on who you are in Christ Jesus! You’re His perfectly crafted masterpiece; His complete and thoroughly finished product. You’ve been set forth to manifest His glory, and show forth His praises to the world around you. Your responsibility now is to be the best of you for God. He doesn’t have another like you, and will never have another like you. That’s how unique you are. Therefore, be a success for Him! Be the best of you for Him, and give Him your all.
