Where's Your Treasure?

"For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." - Matthew 6:21

Where is your treasure, in insurance/financial institutions, organizations etc. Or where?
Jesus speaking said in Matthew 6:19-20 "Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:"
There is no safety or guarantee in this world, not in financial institutions nor in conglomerates, they are only a holding place, not assurance.
In Proverbs 19:17 it says "He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord; and that which he hath given will he pay him again." this is one medium of transferring your physical substance from physical to spiritual. If all you have is stored in banks and the likes; then, your hope and faith is on them. This gives reason why many commit suicide when things go wrong.
Relating to Proverbs 19:17, in Hebrews 7:8 it says "And here men that die receive tithes(we can say givings as well); but there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth." persons have to receive from you here, but spiritually, there's a transfer. See also in Mark 10:17-20, when someone came to Jesus to make an enquiry; in verse 21 Jesus said to him "... go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven:..." this doesn't mean he will go broke, it meant he is currently spiritually bankrupt and that he will no longer depend on his bank account, but on the living God. Philippians 4:19 "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus." or else, his bank will be his Phil. 4:19, and if anything happen, that's it.
By obeying the instructions in the Word of God, we enforce Mark 10:30 in our life, "... in this time(now),....and in the world to come eternal life."

Remain blessed and have a fruitful week.

SETTLED SOUL

  Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2 The state of one's mind [ soul ] determines his/her place in destiny. In life people are forced to bow to pair pressure or any other kind of pressure when they don't have a stable mind, or let's say the person have identity issue.  When Satan tempted Christ Jesus on His way from the wilderness after forty days prayer and fasting, what was the first question he asked Him? "if thou be the Son of God" if Jesus had had identity issue, he would have fallen for temptation in the view to show off, as a result lost His place and purpose. Knowing fully well that God had said, "... Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased." Lk. 3:22. Before embarking on the wilderness expenditure.  When you know who you are in the Word of God and are established in it; you wouldn't bow to the pressure of the world, because you see things differently....

BE WISE.

  Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is. Ephesians 5:17 God, at different times and in so many ways have tried and still trying to let us know what His will for us is (He never gives up on us) . Same way the devil is endeavouring to distract us from God's purpose for our life through various medium. There is a saying, when purpose of a thing is not known, the abuse of the thing is certain. Using a toddler for an example. He/she have no clue what a remote control to a television is, if they found one. They can drop it a bowl of water if available, and still feels happy about it; simply because they have no idea what it is meant for. But as they grow up their perspective change. Same way, God want us to grow to understand our purpose and His plans for our lives. Unfortunately, Satan have ways of distracting people from the medium made available by God for man to identify or discover his purpose on earth. In other to keep people (grown-ups) in per...

PROSPER

 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2. The mind consist of one's will, intellect and emotions; which is the soul of man. At salvation the spirit of man; which is also referred to as the heart gets quickened or made alive (But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible,... ) 1 Peter 3:4  The heart is saved, the soul is not. You [we] have a duty to save our soul; and it has to be done through studying the word and meditating upon the word, that's when the transformation of mind/soul begins. Romans 12:2  "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your MIND, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." As you spend more time in the Word of God; like a mirror you beginning to see your true identity from it. This is the reason we are admonished to study the Word of God. Satan knows this, so he tries...
