Kerusso Daily Devotional - More Precious Than Jewels 3

Kerusso Daily Devotional

We don’t have direct evidence, of course. The Bible doesn’t tell us this exactly…

But tradition says that the Ten Commandments were carved from a solid slab of sapphire.

It’s a beautiful thought, isn’t it? The rich blue of the sapphire gemstone reminds us of royalty, and the regal King Jesus. It fits!

Proverbs 31:10 says, “She is far more precious than jewels.”

When a woman admires a sapphire necklace, or turns her hand in order to catch the light on that beautiful blue sapphire ring, she is presenting a picture of what it means to be a Proverbs 31 woman. The ring of a ruler, one that loves all people and values them, the sapphire can be seen from a very long distance. There is no mistaking that this is a treasure that draws the best kind of admiration from everyone who comes in contact.

If you want to stand out from the crowd in the best sense of the term, remind yourself that your King is the royal regent who has set you apart to be His ambassador here on Earth. See yourself the way He sees you: a precious and priceless gem.

Let’s pray.

Lord, like the sapphire, we desire to stand out from the crowd for the right reasons: to point the way to King Jesus. Help us to shine for you! Amen.
