Humanity had fallen and indeed no man was worthy. It is true what the ancient book of Romans said in chapter 3:23, 

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”

Nobody deserved the grace of the creator; we were all lost. Now our eyes behold the depravity of man. Man was pitiful and needed help but no one could help. The creator saw His creation in that despair and decided He was going to help. He went to His archenemy to negotiate for the life of man.

Prince had finally gotten his chance to make the creator pay. 

“According to the Laws of EL ELYON”, said Prince, “it is written in the ancient book of Romans 6:23, “Man had committed high treason and deserves nothing but the death penalty.””

“If you want to buy man back, then pay that price”, Prince added. 

The angels were angry, “How dare Prince to ask for the price of divinity?” Should the Creator give them the charge, they would destroy Prince in a second. To their amazement, the Creator agreed to pay that price. True to His words, He did by becoming man. Little did Prince know that Death couldn’t keep the blood of an innocent man and so he had to let go. Finally, man had been bought yet Prince wouldn’t let go. 

The Creator had a plan. A child would be born again. He will seek the great priced pearl, become empowered by it and save humanity. Merchant was born again but His journey would first of all become possible only when the Creator calls Him. The blueprint of His journey is in this call. Merchant finally hears the call of the Creator but he feared to go on this journey.

Like Merchant, God is calling all of us who have been bought by His precious blood to begin a journey to intimacy with the Holy Spirit. For many of us, we are scared to heed to this call for many reasons. For some, it is the things we want; the desires of the flesh. For others, it is the desires of this world. But beloved, there is a treasure to seek. We can’t be that selfish to enjoy the passing pleasures of this world and forget this holy journey. God is counting on us. WILL YOU NOT RESPOND TO HIS CALL?
