Do not store up for yourself material treasures on earth

“Do not store up for yourselves [material] treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
Matthew 6:19 AMP

Hallelujah be unto God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

Jesus taught us not to store up for ourselves material treasures here on earth during His Sermon on the Mount. It doesn’t mean that we should not get any property here on earth. The caution is about not putting our trust in the material things we acquire.

What are the things we cherish in our heart? Is God and His Kingdom our most treasured and valuable possession or that sleek vehicle or that gorgeous mansion? Moth and rust can destroy our earthly treasures! Let us reconsider our priorities.

Our treasures should be heaven based where they are eternal, the rust and moth cannot destroy it. We must deeply cherish the things of God, our love and service to God must be the paramount thing.

Father we acknowledge that it is in you that we live and move and have our being, help us to focus on you rather than the things of this world.

Most High God help us to build up resources in Heaven where we shall be rewarded. Grant us the grace to place you first in all things in Jesus Mighty name. Amen.

Store God’s Word in your heart to guard against sin

Your word I have treasured and stored in my heart, That I may not sin against You.
PSALMS 119:11 AMP

Glory, honour and adoration be unto God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it. Hallelujah.

Thank God for the creative ability of the Word of God. Today we see another important phase of the Word, the Word as a defence against sin.

King David said , he hid the Word of God in his heart so he would not sin against the Lord. Psalm 119 spoke a lot about the various abilities of the Word. Today we are also challenged to imitate and follow the Psalmist by accepting the Word of God as a treasure and hiding it in our hearts as a defence or as insurance against sin.

We need to study it and understand so we do what the Word of God requires of us.

May the Lord help us to hide the Word of God in our hearts so we will not sin against the Most High God. May the Word remain as a treasure stored in our hearts forever more in Jesus Mighty name,Amen.
