Another treasure in God’s treasure field is that of faith. In Mark 11:22 Jesus said “Have faith in God”, or as the King James margin says “Have the faith of God.” Then Romans 12:3 states that “God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.” God plants the “seed” of faith in each of […]
While treasure can be defined as gold, silver, jewels, riches, Etc. there are other treasures that are more valuable than these. They are the spiritual and eternal treasures freely given to us by God. In her poem this week Rose has in view the treasure of God’s grace. This grace according to the Greek of […]
As we continue our series on the kingdom of heaven, today we are looking at greatness. Greatness in God’s kingdom runs counter to the notion of greatness in our fallen world where it is associated with exaltation; in the kingdom of heaven the way up is down. In Matthew 23:12 Jesus said, “And whoever […]
The Bible speaks of treasure in numerous places. Two identical verses appear in Matthew 6:21 and Luke 12:34, both are the words of Jesus Himself saying, “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” So real treasure is what we view with the highest value.

God’s word is like treasure to be sought after, indeed in Psalm 19:10 David found it “More to be desired…than much fine gold.” And the writer of Psalm 119 said “The law of Your mouth is better to me Than thousands of coins of gold and silver” verse 72. In the book of Proverbs wisdom […]
Have you ever gotten to a place where the load is so heavy, the burden so great, and the battle so intense and long that you feel you don’t even know how to pray? Take courage, the Bible says “the Spirit also helps our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for […]
Continuing to focus on water we read in Revelation 21:6 “…I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts.” Nothing can compare to clear cool water to quench the thirst of a hot laborer or a weary traveler! Other liquids may appeal to the taste buds, but they […]
In another meditation we talk about “Abundant water”; today we are talking about “living water”. This is water that is produced by a pure flowing stream abounding with life giving properties, as opposed to a stagnant pool of water; In a Biblical picture we can compare it to the Sea of Galilee abounding with life, […]
