He Is Precious 1 Peter 2:7

February 6   He is precious.    I Peter 2:7

1 Peter 2:7  Unto you therefore which believe he is precious:

but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the

builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,

Yes- Jesus is precious to every believer, however Christians may differ upon some points, they all agree in this JESUS IS PRECIOUS. They cannot always feel towards Him as they wish, but they have always one and the same opinion of Him.

He is precious in His person, word, work, blood, righteousness, and intercession: as prophet, priest, and King; in every name He wears, every character He bears, every relation He fills, and every office He sustains; so precious that none can compared with Him.

His people love Him, but none of them think they love him enough; they adore Him, but mourn over their want of fervour when addressing Him; they prefer Him above all things, and consider Him altogether lovely.

Do you find Christ precious this morning?

If He was to be sold, what would you give for Him?

If you could be gratified, how would you feel towards Him?

He is precious to poor sensible sinners; to strong believers; to holy angels; and to God our heavenly Father.

Is He so to you?

Live near to Him, be intimate with Him, and you will feel Him precious.

The more you know of Him, the more you will prize Him.

Our Jesus is more precious far,

Than life and all its comforts are;

More precious than our daily food,

More precious than our vital blood.

James Smith
