How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them! If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand. When I awake, I am still with You. Psalm 139:17-18.
Today your LORD (יהוה) God (אלהים) says:
Fruitful days bring songs of praise, songs of praise bring fruitful days. Make your days sweet with the fruit of the Spirit and with My Word in your heart that is sweeter than honey from the comb and you will be constantly with Me and death and sorrow will flee. Your life, your days will be precious to you and you will find Me precious in your sight. Precious. Life to you will become precious, a treasure beyond measure.
You are precious in My sight.
“Since you are precious in My sight, Since you are honored and I love you.” Isaiah 43:4.
I constantly have My eyes upon you and My heavenly Host watching over you. Why? You are so precious to Me.
Am I precious to you?
How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! And the children of men take refuge in the shadow of Your wings. Psalm 36:7.
If you find Me precious, your eyes are constantly on Me.
My eyes are continually toward the LORD, for He will bring my feet out of the net. Psalm 25:15.
“For we are powerless before this great multitude who are coming against us; nor do we know what to do, but our eyes are on You.” 2 Chronicles 20:12.
I have set the LORD continually before me; because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; my flesh also will dwell securely. Psalm 16:8-9.
I have precious plans for you that outnumber the sand because they are forever plans. Plans for your shalom and not for evil to give you a future and a hope. You have a precious and beautiful inheritance with Me. I have made you joint heirs with Christ and have given you My Kingdom. Precious.
The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You support my lot. The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; indeed, my inheritance is beautiful to me. Psalm 16:5-6.
Most people do not think of Me or themselves as precious or they would not speak as they do. Most people do not value their lives as precious. They abuse their bodies, they torment their minds, they are often out of control. They are derogatory about themselves, others, and Me. Everything is criticism, nothing is precious.
The answer is always, hold Me, yourself, and your life with awe as precious and you will see the world in a whole new light. You will see everything I have made, including other people, as precious. If you see all through the lens of precious you will not cheat, steal, lie or abuse another. You will not be out to scam someone or deceive them if they are precious.
Precious, when you hold things to your heart as precious you are flooded with light, and the light will lead you on, till I become your song. The song of your life. I already have sung My song over you, it is right in the middle of the Bible and it is the Song of all Songs. It is a love song between two companies, you and Me.
Precious days we have together forever. Do you love to sit in My shade?
“In his shade I took great delight and sat down, and his fruit was sweet to my taste. He has brought me to his banquet hall, and his banner over me is love. Sustain me with raisin cakes, refresh me with apples, because I am lovesick. Let his left hand be under my head and his right hand embrace me.” Song of Songs 2:3-6.
David was after My heart and I looked at his heart. We both found each other precious. And that is worship.
One thing I have asked from the LORD, that I shall seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the delightfulness of the LORD and to meditate in His temple. For in the day of trouble He will conceal me in His tabernacle; in the secret place of His tent He will hide me; He will lift me up on a rock. And now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me, and I will offer in His tent sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD. Psalm 27:4-6.
He loved to just come and sit with Me in the tent he pitched for the ark of the covenant close by his palace. I made him king and provided a palace for him and he made Me his King and he longed to build a palace for Me. But when I said “no,” instead I would build him a house that would never end he would not rest with that. He made all the plans and found his delight in conquering kingdoms and taking their treasuries to put aside for the construction of a palace for Me.
If you do not love to tithe to Me for the work of My house, I am not precious to you. David could never give enough. His heart was for Me and Mine toward him. I made him rich and famous like the great ones of the earth, but to him it was all for Me. The same was true of Abraham. I made him rich and his name great but he knew who his source was and would not take even a shoe lace from the evil king of Sodom. But he immediately tithed to My priest Melchizedek with joy and I became his great reward.
Tithing and offering are a matter of worship. I taught My people to worship Me with the tithe, Deuteronomy 26:1-19, and I opened the windows of Heaven over them and poured out a blessing they could not contain.
“You have today declared the LORD to be your God, and that you would walk in His ways and keep His statutes, His commandments and His ordinances, and listen to His voice. The LORD has today declared you to be His people, a treasured possession, as He promised you, and that you should keep all His commandments; and that He will set you high above all nations which He has made, for praise, fame, and honor; and that you shall be a consecrated people to the LORD your God, as He has spoken.” Deuteronomy 26:17-19.
When you know how precious you are to Me then I become precious to you. And you see how precious you are to Me in what I did to save you and keep you with Me forever as precious in My sight. I so love you, I gave My only begotten Son to bear your sins, illnesses, pains, shame, blame, and made Him to be your righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. I put you in Him and removed all your sins by His precious blood,and anything else that separated us and gave you My health, wealth, wisdom, peace, joy, and all that I have. I put My Spirit in you and on you and gave you My Word to heal you and bring you out of all your destructions. Just look at Isaiah 53 and you will see how precious you are to Me.
I love you. You are precious in My sight. Spend your days with Me as precious.
