The word for today is - Treasures !

Good morning,

The word for today is- Treasures!

 

Let's look at Matthew 6:19,Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: Jesus taught his disciples to strive for heavenly things, instead of heaping up earthly riches. The disciples were told what to do when they still lived here on earth caring for the poor.The apostle Paul teachings and taught the samething. Paul wrote that the things above were to be the goal and desire, just as Jesus had taught for the believers. Read Matthew 6:21,For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Where is your treasure? Is your treasure on earth or in Heavenly things? Read Proverbs 2:4-5,If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures; Then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God. If we depend upon God, and seek to him for wisdom, he will enable us.This is a promises(His word).The word tells us in Luke 14:12-14,Then said he also to him that bade him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor thy rich neighbours; lest they also bid thee again, and a recompence be made thee. But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind. And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just (repayed). Read Colossians 2:3,In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. Did you get that? In whom ? Our Lord and Savor! Read Acts 4:12, Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.Jesus offered man something very special.He invited man to become his personal disciple.Jesus said, come, follow me, taking up the cross. Read Mark 10:21, Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me. Thank you God for your word.Amen !
