You Are Valuable to Him
Yeshua never taught us to devalue ourselves. In fact, quite the opposite. He warned us with clarity and love:
“Do not give what is holy to the dogs, nor cast your pearls before swine…” — Matthew 7:6
These words are not just about discernment—they are about identity and worth. Yeshua continually pointed us toward a life built on solid ground, a firm foundation, so we wouldn’t be tossed about by the storms of life. His parables, His rebukes, even His silences were crafted to show us that we are precious, set apart, and beloved by the Most High.
A Father Above All
Yeshua constantly spoke of His Father—a personal, intimate relationship that He invited us into. What’s remarkable is that throughout Scripture, the Father is not given a personal name like Yeshua or Yehovah. He is most often simply referred to as “Father”—and that’s no accident.
Only once in Daniel is He given a descriptive title: “Ancient of Days.” Yet Yeshua, even before He took on flesh and walked among us, was known as Yehovah—the One who interacted with Israel directly. But the One whom He prayed to, submitted to, and glorified? Always “Father.”
That title alone speaks volumes. Not distant, not abstract, but relational—the very source of life and love.
One God, Three Persons — A Deeper Understanding
The mystery of the Trinity is not a contradiction—it is a revelation. The Word of God does not present confusion, but clarity for those who seek it in the Spirit. As followers of Yeshua, we are called to understand the God we worship: One God, eternally revealed in three distinct persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Let’s take a deeper look into the unique but unified roles of each:
1. The Father — The Source of All Things
Though the Father has no personal name given in Scripture, He is always referred to in relational terms: “Father.” Even Yeshua, who came down from heaven, always pointed us to the Father.
-
He is called the “Ancient of Days” in Daniel 7:9—a title that speaks of eternal authority.
-
He is the One who sent the Son (John 3:16) and gives the Spirit (John 14:26).
-
All things ultimately proceed from the Father (1 Corinthians 8:6).
“To us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things…” — 1 Corinthians 8:6
2. The Son — The Word Made Flesh
Many say the Father created the world—but Scripture is more specific. In John 1, we are told:
“In the beginning was the Word… All things were made by Him, and without Him was not anything made that was made.”
That Word is the Son—Yeshua, before He took on flesh. He is:
-
The creator through whom the Father made the world (Colossians 1:16).
-
The Redeemer who laid down His life to restore us to the Father (Romans 5:8).
-
The visible image of the invisible God (Colossians 1:15).
He is not a created being. He is eternal, and He was God and is God.
3. The Holy Spirit — The Power and Presence of God in Us
The Spirit is not just a force—it is a person, equal with the Father and the Son.
-
He hovered over the waters at creation (Genesis 1:2).
-
He is the breath of life and the One who fills and empowers the saints (Acts 2).
-
He convicts the world of sin, guides into truth, and sanctifies believers (John 16:8–13, 1 Corinthians 6:11).
The Spirit is how God dwells in us today—our Counselor, our Comforter, and our Guarantee (Ephesians 1:13–14).
Not Three Gods — One God in Perfect Unity
The word "God" is not a name—it’s a title, like "King" or "Judge." What makes the Trinity divine is oneness in nature, oneness in will, and oneness in glory.
“Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is One.” — Deuteronomy 6:4
That Hebrew word echad (אֶחָד) means a compound unity, like when a man and woman become “one flesh.” The Father, Son, and Spirit are distinct persons, but eternally united as One God.
You Are Not Cheap
All of this brings us back to you.
Yeshua said not to cast what is holy to dogs, or throw pearls before swine (Matthew 7:6), because He sees your value. You were created by the Word, called by the Father, and are being sanctified by the Spirit.
You are loved.
You are known.
You are redeemed.
Walk in that identity. Build your life on the Rock. You are not common—you are His.
