Greatest Gift

Read:  Psalm 85 / Proverbs 24 / 1 Chronicles 20 / 1 Corinthians 12

 

Psalm 85:8 ~ I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people.

Proverbs 24:14 ~ So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off.

1 Chronicles 20:2 ~ David took the crown of their king from off his head, and… also exceeding much spoil out of the city.

1 Corinthians 12:31 ~ But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.

 

Decrees from rulers may abound,

In contrast to what God has said. 

The wise men heard a sweeter sound

And worshipped Jesus Christ instead. 

 

Though many seek a crown’s reward,

Their earthly prize shall soon grow dim.

The Greatest Gift is Christ our Lord, 

Who draws our hearts to worship Him.
