Matthew 13:44 Our text passage highlights the value of God's kingdom. It likens the kingdom of God unto a treasure. This automatically shows us God's kingdom should be our topmost priority. It also shows us the value God expects us to place on His kingdom. If God expects us to value His kingdom it is because His kingdom is His own priority. A treasure is a valuable item or wealth, it is a store or collection of precious metals, gems, money, or artifacts such as buried gold or ancient relics. Anyone who finds treasure has hit a financial jackpot or windfall. The kingdom of God is the treasure of Christianity. The kingdom of God is the treasure of God. The kingdom of God is also a treasure God puts in His people, those who have His seal on their lives, those who are saved through Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthians 4:7 A person can also be a treasure, a highly priced thing or person is a treasure. Jesus is God's greatest treasure! John 3:16 The kingdom is so valuable because it is t...

Matthew 6:13 Our text scripture passage shows us God is the one who truly delivers. So God is our deliverer. Who is a deliverer? A deliverer is a person who rescues, who saves from hardship, danger, or evil. This is what the Lord Jesus Christ does. He delivers from sin, Satan, shame, sickness, and sorrow. He delivers from fallen angels, demonic spirits, evil forces and evil mysteries. He delivers us from the kingdom of darkness, the wiles of men, the tricks of enemies, and the weapons of cruelty. He delivers us from ourselves, since some people are the enemies of themselves whether they know it or not. He delivers us from death. John 11: 38-44 Jesus the Christ is the great deliverer. No man can deliver you outside of being used by God to help you. If a man is not operating with the power and wisdom of God, he/she cannot deliver you. The Lord has all the power and wisdom to deliver us with our various unique issues and scenarios. He has the kingdom, the power and the glory to deliver us...

2 Corinthians 3:18 Our text passage informs us transformation is a major part of our spiritual journey. Transformation is a major, radical, and total change that makes a thing totally different and unrecognizable from what it used to be. We are on a journey of transformation spiritually. A work is being done in us, which eventually manifests outwardly. Transformation makes new and brings the new. Transformation leads to glory.  New things have a glory about them- their smell, the freshness, the purity and the cleaness. New things make us happy, they bring a certain excitement. A new car, a new house, a new job, a new pet, publishing a new book or finishing a new project, a new breakthrough, a new bouncing baby added to a couple; all these things bring great joy. The kind of joy we feel when these things happen to us should give us an insight into the joy God's heavenly family feel when a new believer is added to the Lord's family. Angels rejoice/celebrate when a new convert cho...

 2 Kings 6:15-17 Our text passage shows us it's very important to have the right perspective in life. An individual who is with God is never outnumbered by the enemy! What we see with our natural eyes and what we are experiencing does not necessarily reveal the truth. There are times in life you may feel outnumbered, unmotivated & overwhelmed. Life's trials, challenges, twists and turns can make us feel that way. Health issues, career issues, spiritual warfare, family issues, biological limitations, betrayals, and the wickedness of men can make us feel outnumbered. When the bills keep coming, debts are accruing, responsibilities are increasing, naysayers and critics are all around you, enemies encircle you & detractors are on your tail. During such times, remember "greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world" The individual with God is the majority. Unfortunately, Gehazi the assistant of Prophet Elisha didn't understand this. Many of us can b...

 Jeremiah 32:27 Our text passage has a question in it. The passage informs us God is the Lord before the question came. A lord is a master, the one who owns and controls. God is the Master, the owner, and He controls, sorts out and fixes. The text informs us He is the God of all flesh. This means everything pertaining to life on earth He is God over it. The flesh refers to our body. Anything that has a body has a right to live on earth. The fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the things that move and creep all have their various type of bodies. Human beings have their own bodies. God is God over every form of flesh, He called them into existence, He formed them. Then the question from the text passage, "is anything too hard for me?" Anything that can go wrong on earth, in creation, and within our bodies can be fixed by the Lord. God has supernatural solutions for everything. Our challenges do not intimidate God. Our difficulties do not scare God. Our fears do not make God ...

1 Samuel 2:8 Our text passage reveals God raises the beggar from the dust, and lifts the needy from the ash heap to make them sit with princes and inherit a throne of honor. In other words, its God who turns the lowly into highly placed people, He turns those who lack into people who are abundant in riches, and He raises the head and horn of those who are bowed down. The Lord is the one who makes royalty out of those that are regarded as common and despised. If that is not a miracle I don't know what else is. If that is not mysterious, then tell me what else is. Our text passage shows God lifts and transforms mysteriously! God is a God of mysterious liftings! Psalm 3:3 God's ways are beyond man. The way God lifts men up and shows mercy to a person is beyond what a human mind can orchestrate. No man can plan for you what God has planned for you. No man can do for you what God can do for you. God is the Master planner, Master orchestrater, and the one who sets up. When it is God...
