David Jeremiah 2 March 2022 Daily Devotional MESSAGE
In 1915, the world-famous Neiman Marcus retailer sent out a Christmas card inviting customers to do their holiday shopping at the store. In 1926, the card was replaced by a sixteen-page catalog containing specialty gifts—and the Christmas Book tradition continues to this day. Each year, it is filled with unusual and extravagant gifts: hot air balloons, camels, robots, submarines, Egyptian mummy coffins (mummy included), and expensive luxury cars. Some gifts are moderately priced, but others—like a Boeing business jet for more than $35 million—are beyond the reach of most customers.
Unlike the gifts in the Neiman Marcus catalog, all of which have a price tag, God has given to the world a priceless gift: the gift of salvation through His Son, Jesus Christ (Romans 6:23). The apostle Paul called the grace of God in Christ an “indescribable gift”—that is, a priceless gift which no one can afford. And yet God has given it to us as a “free gift [which] came to all men” (Romans 5:18).
Have you opened your heart to receive the “free gift” of God in Christ? Instead of pining for expensive gifts, why not receive a priceless gift for free?
God’s chief gift to those who seek Him is Himself.
