WE ARE RARE GEMS II

They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

John 17:16 NKJV

We are rare gems, we are not salted from this world or seen in the aftermarket, we only have one Maker, God. Hence should learn to live by every word that comes from His mouth, and not by bread alone. In John 17:16-17 NKJV the Lord prayed, “They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.”

Remember the words of Moses to the Israelites in the desert, “So He humbled you, allowed you to hunger, and fed you with manna which you did not know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you know that man shall not live by bread alone; but man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord. (Deuteronomy 8:3 NKJV)

Just as the Israelites practically lived by God, for without Him they couldn't survive in the desert. In the same way, we are to live by every word that comes from the mouth of God. This is what sets us apart from the rest of the world. “Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.”Romans 12:2 NKJV says, “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”

WE PRAY FOR THE GRACE TO LIVE BY GOD'S WORDS IN JESUS NAME AMEN!

THANK YOU JESUS!
