How Much Are You Worth?

You know how to find out how much you’re worth? I’ll tell you. Suppose, as a matter of fact, right now, my wife and I are in the middle of selling a house. That it was worth $55,000 US dollars. When we tried to sell it, we discovered nobody would pay $55,000 US dollars for it. Now, what’s the house worth? It’s worth what someone will pay for it.

You can put any price tag you like on something you want to sell, but it’s worth what someone will pay, no more. Now, you are worth what God was willing to pay for you. What did He pay for you? He redeemed you with what? The precious blood of Jesus Christ, something on which you can put no price tag.

“For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed... but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.”

And if you can grasp that fact, that God was willing to pay the blood of His Son to redeem you, you’ll never feel—you’ll never have a problem with self-worth again. Because you’re worth what God was willing to pay for you.
