GOD’S FIRST CLASS TICKET!
Psalm 118:1 – Devotional
Psalm 118:1
“Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good and His mercy endures forever.”
The senseless violence that is rampant around the world can cause us to feel that the forces of hell are winning the battle for men’s souls. In a sense that is true if we look only at the results of sin and not the redemption that God offers.
Years ago I read about a man who was travelling across the Atlantic Ocean on a great liner. He had packed as much food as he could stuff into his suitcase, but it soon ran out and he was week with hunger and the aroma from the dining area almost was more than he could stand.
At last he approached a ship’s steward and asked if he might be able to work at some job in order to be able to earn enough to eat. When the steward examined his ticket he was informed that it entitled him to meals as well as transportation.
How often do we as God’s children, who are on our journey to heaven, live like spiritual paupers? Instead of relishing in the rich spiritual resources God gives to those who have been born again, we live like spiritual beggars. Remember – – Jesus purchased us a first class ticket with His own blood!
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
