Precious in the Sight of the LORD

Psalm 116:15Loading...

This verse is something to think about, something to dwell on, something to meditate on. David, full of the Holy Ghost, speaks God's word and says, "Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints."

I looked up the definition of precious so we truly understand it:

PRECIOUS, adjective [Latin pretiosus, from pretium, price]

  • Of great price; costly; as a precious stone
  • Of great value or worth; very valuable
  • Highly valued; much esteemed

You may ask what is a saint? We are saints. Believe it or not.

What Makes Us Saints?

The word "saint" in the Bible comes from the Greek word "hagios," which means "holy ones" or "set apart ones." God calls all believers saints:

“Buy the truth, and sell it not”
— Proverbs 23:23
