The most important thing of all is to be in a right relationship with God. This is the point which is emphasized in Israel’s sacrificial system. All other relationships are secondary to our relationship with God. Jesus makes this point in Mark
10:29-30 - Leave all your loved ones for Him and the Gospel and you
will “receive a hundred times as much in this present age ... and in the
age to come eternal life.” The Psalmist affirms that his relationship
with God is more important than anything else: “Though my father and
mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me” (Psalm 27:10).
"Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you" (Isaiah 60:1). * Let the light of Christ shine. * Let the words of Scripture lead to thoughts of the Saviour. * In Christ, we are called to salvation, sanctification and service. * Be wise – worship the Saviour. Is 60:1-6; Ps 72:1-7,10-14; Eph 3:1-12; Mt 2:1-12
