There Is None Like That, Give It Me
These are the words of David that are recorded in I Samuel 21:9. When David was on the run from King Saul, he came to the priest Ahimelech to find shelter, food and a weapon. David found food and shelter, yet the priest had no sword in the temple, except the sword that David used to take off Goliath's head. David knowing the soundness of that weapon said, "There is none like that; give it to me. " I think we can make good use of that saying in reference to the gospel of Jesus Christ. 1). In regards to His WORD, "there is none like that; give it me. " Consider who the Author is; "All scripture is given by inspiration of God" (1 Tim. 3:16). All other books are but man made at best. Consider its glorious subject, "To Him give all the prophets witness" (Acts 10:43). The written word powerfully gives testimony to the living Word, His person and work. Consider the effects of His Word; "Of His own will begat he us with the word of truth" (James 1:18). It is soul quickening (Eph. 2:1). It is heartwarming (Luke 24:32). It is a guide for our life (Psa. 119:104). Therefore I say, "there is none like that; give it to me. " Give it to me that I may grow in grace (l Peter 2:2). Give it to me that I may see Jesus Christ as “altogether lovely.” 2). In regards to His SALVATION, "there is none like that; give it to me.” Our salvation was totally purposed and purchased by Jesus Christ Himself (Acts 20:28). “He appeared once in the end of the world to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself “(Heb. 9:26). There is no other atonement like the one He made (Heb. 2:17 10:17). There is no other righteousness like the one He provides for His elect (Rom. 4:6; Phil 3:7-9). Therefore I say, "there is none like that; give it to me." Give it to me that I may be justified in Him (Rom. 3:24-26). Give it to me that I may be glorified in Christ (Rom. 8:29-30). 3). In regards to FAITH, “there is none like that; give it to me.” “Without faith it is impossible to please God” (Heb. 11:6). “The just shall live by faith” (Rom. 1:17). Saving faith is not a product of the creature, it is the sovereign gift of the Creator (Eph. 2:8-9). Therefore I say, "there is none like that; give it to me." Give it to me that I may believe God. Give it to me that I may walk by faith, not by sight. Give it to me that I may live upon His truth and rejoice in Christ Jesus alone (Phil. 3:3).
