I don’t buy lottery tickets; nor do I place my hopes in the Publishers Clearing House sweepstakes. Many people do.

Those who purchase tickets say, ‘If I win the lottery’…

The convinced might boast;‘When I win the lottery’…

Many States have turned to lotteries as a means of balancing ballooning budgets. As a girl, I often viewed a TV program called ‘The Millionaire.’ The series debuted in 1955 on the CBS television network. People’s lives were changed after they answered a knock at their doors.

An unseen benefactor sent his personal secretary to their homes. The dutiful messenger was on a mission of mercy; delivering hand written checks for a cool million. Needs were met. First, the recipients needed to open their doors…

“Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me (Revelation 3:20 NASB).”

Christ Jesus offers the greatest gift of all. It surpasses the value of lottery Powerball winnings, Publisher’s Clearing House lifetime prizes or a millionaire’s megabucks. Jesus gives us His fellowship, His presence and protection.

Do you hear His voice?

Listen…

“My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me;  and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand (John 10:27-28 NASB).”
