You're Relevant To God!

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy n a t i o n ,ap e c u l i a rp e o p l e ;t h a ty es h o u l ds h o wf o r t ht h ep r a i s e so f him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light ( 1P e t e r2 : 9 ) .

verybody wants to be important; thats a fact of life. Inside every one of us is a craving for relevance. We want to be received with honour everywhere we go. We want to be treated with courtesy, dignity and respect. Thats why you resent it when youre treated like youre nothing. You resent being relegated to the background in the society. The truth is, youre valuable, and thats why Jesus paid the supreme price for your s a l v a t i o n . Today, we see so many people trying to find that relevance in the wrong way and in the wrong places. This is the reason for the robberies, murders, restiveness and the antisocial behaviours amongst many people. Its the reason for the despots, tyrants and dictators of the world! Theyre searching for relevance, but in the wrong way. Some believe that their jobs or business will give them the relevance and fulfilment they crave. Others believe theyll find it in marriage. The truth is you can only discover your importance and relevance in God! You may have looked at your life in retrospect and felt a lot of regrets, but I want you to remember the great price God paid for your redemption. Youre worth the blood of the Son of God. So appreciate yourself and look at life with hope. Ask the Lord to show you what to do to

improve yourself daily, and Hell guide you on the right road to your divine destiny. Youre not an unknown entity in the world, the great Shepherd who ...calls his own sheep by name and leads them (John 10:3 NIV) is your guide; Hell never lead you astray. Youre relevant to His ministry of reconciliation to the ends of the earth.

Prayer
Dear Father, I thank you because my relevance is in you. Nothing the world offers is worth the joy, relevance and satisfaction that I have with you. I rejoice at having found lasting joy and true relevance in your Word, in Jesus Name. Amen.
