TOPIC: You Are Treasured By God (DCLM Daily Manna 28 January 2024)
KEY VERSE: “I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well” (Psalm 139:14).
TEXT: Psalms 139:14-18 (KJV)
14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and my soul knoweth right well.
15 My substance was not denhidden from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the earth’s lowest parts.
16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book, all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned when there was none.
17 How precious are thy thoughts unto me, O God! How significant is their sum!
18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: I am still with thee when I awake.
DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:
One of the greatest temptations people easily fall into is to yield to the pressures of life and condition themselves to what other people think about them.
This brings loss of self-esteem, self-pity, and loss of self-confidence. Above all, it could result in the distrust of God and His promises and His ability to accomplish anything significant in their lives.

Tempting as this may be for David, who wrote this psalm, he was quick to shrug off all things that could distract him from focusing on God and recognizing the special place He has reserved for His children. He praised God for creating him, realizing he was “fearfully and wonderfully made.” He never lost sight of the fact that God knows about him, started him secretly in an unexpected place, and saw and learned about everything happening to him. Even though he considered himself imperfect compared to the holy God, the Lord was still mindful enough to keep a record of his life diligently and continue His recreative work in him. He was lost in wonderment at the precious thoughts of God towards him and proclaimed, “O God! how great is the sum of them!”
We must face life’s challenges with the understanding that the all-knowing and all-seeing God is fully acquainted with our trials and temptations, triumphs, and successes. He took special care to create every one of us and thinks of us constantly. When tempted by the problems of life to fall into self-pity or even self-hate, we must remember that we are God’s peculiar creatures and are of value in His sight.
God has given us the greatest gift of letting us know Him and know He is good and faithful. No matter what happens, He cares about us.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
When tempted to belittle your worth, remember you bear the image of the almighty God.
