The Field Of God's Kingdom!

 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 the kingdom of Jesus Christ the Son of God the Father!

Colossians 1:13

When you find a field (Pastor, teacher, ministry, church, individual) who teaches the kingdom of God, who introduces you to the kingdom of God, who prioritizes the kingdom message, value it.

Not every field has treasures.

When we search for gold and silver here on earth or natural resources, we do not find them in every part of the earth, we don't find them in every ground, every country or every land.

But the land or ground where gold, diamonds, precious stones and natural resources are found, automatically become valuable.

Some fields are more valuable than the other.

Not every "field" has the treasure of the kingdom of God within it.

It is God who leads us to where the treasure of God's kingdom is.

When we find the field- person, people, ministry, church, assembly where the kingdom of God is taught and emphasized it is our responsibility to recognize it.

The beautiful thing about the individual in our text passage is that when he found the field with the treasure in it, he recognized the value of the treasure, he hid it back in the ground/field and went off to make arrangements for the purchase of the field.

He bought the entire field because of one treasure.

The kingdom of God makes the entire field (ministry/individual/church/doctrine valuable).

The kingdom of God is the great prize, the pearl, the treasure of Christianity.

The kingdom of God is the inheritance we get in God.

Luke 12:32

The kingdom of God is what Jesus came teaching about, not prosperity, hell, demons, dressing, prayer or fasting. Although all those topics matter.

Mark 1:14-15

The message of the kingdom was so important God sent one of His choicest prophets to bring the message of the kingdom to the earth, he was the forerunner of Jesus Christ, his name is John the Baptist.

Matthew 3:1-3

Jesus taught many parables about the kingdom of God.

He shared 12 to 13 parables in total about the kingdom of God as documented in the Bible.

The kingdom of God changes your identity, it changes your self esteem, your view and opinion about yourself.

The kingdom within you is evidence you are God's heir, a join heir with Christ Jesus!

The Lord encourages us to value and prioritize the kingdom of God.

Matthew 6:33

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...

Healing For Your Soul Wounds!

Malachi 4:2 Your soul is a vital part of your life. Your soul is part of who you are. Your soul needs to function well for things to go well with you. Your prosperity is linked to your soul. 3 John 2 Your soul is the decision making center of your life. God cares about the state of your soul. God created your soul and wants your soul to function well. It is the will of God that your soul is preserved until the coming back of Jesus Christ. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 Your soul is made up of your will, your mind and your emotions. You need your will, your mind and your emotions to function properly and to be regarded as a well balanced human being. Your soul is valuable and the enemy wants it. Your soul is part of the reason you are saved and a part of God's kingdom. 2 Corinthians 4:3,4 We are spirits who have a soul and live in a body. When your soul is wounded As our natural bodies can be affected, so can our souls. As we can have physical wounds and sores caused b...
