A PECULIAR TREASURE 2

A PECULIAR TREASURE 2
Proverbs 15 vs. 6: In the house of the righteous is much treasure; but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble. A righteous man is GOD’s peculiar treasure. He is blessed beyond measures. Blessed is he when he goes out and comes in. A peculiar treasure is he who is wise. He follows after righteousness and mercy. He gets life and honor. Proverbs 22 vs. 20-21: There is a treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spends it up. He that follows after righteousness and mercy finds life, righteousness and honor. A peculiar treasure lays up for himself treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust does corrupt and where thieves do not breakthrough nor steal. A peculiar treasure set affection on things above and not things of the world. Matthew 6 vs. 19-21: Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust does corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal.  But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust does corrupt and where thieves do not break through nor steal. For where your treasure is there will your heart be also. Where are you laying your treasures?

          
GOD chose Jacob and Israel for His peculiar treasure. He was GOD’s favorites from his mother’s womb. GOD changed his name from Jacob to Israel; he was a nation and company of nations. Kings came out of his loins and he was given the land GOD gave Abraham and Isaac. Psalm 135 vs. 4: For the LORD has chosen Jacob to Himself and Israel for His peculiar treasure. Genesis 35 vs. 10-11: And GOD said unto him, thy name is Jacob; thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name; and he called his name Israel. And GOD said unto him, I am GOD Almighty; be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins. Job was also a peculiar treasure, because he fears GOD and hates evil. Job 1 vs. 1: There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared GOD and eschewed evil. David was also a peculiar treasure, though he commits sins; but reconciles with GOD. He honors and delights in GOD’s will. He seeks after dwelling in the house of the LORD and inquired in His temple. Psalm 27 vs. 4: One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life to behold the beauty of the LORD and to inquire in His temple. We are all chosen to be GOD’s peculiar treasure, because we have been brought out of darkness into His marvelous light; but sin is a reproach. We have to come back and reconcile with GOD. We have to follow after righteousness and mercy, so we can have life in abundant and honor. I am a peculiar treasure, You are a peculiar treasure and We are peculiar treasures only if we fear GOD, obey his commandments and make righteousness our watch word. Are you blessed reading this write up? Kindly share with others… It is well with us.

AN OUTCAST

AN OUTCAST An outcast is one that has been excluded from a society or system. He is labeled a beggar. He is an outsider. An outcast is a person that lacks care. An outcast is neglected and overlooked. He is demoralized. He is wounded in heart. He is labeled whom no one cares. He is one that has lost hope. He is one who is frustrated and dejected. He is one who is always deep in thoughts and sorrowful. He is one who lives like a foreigner in his own land. He is one who is distressed. He is one who gets dispossessed of his possessions. He is one who is perplexed. He is one who is troubled on every side. He is one who is despair. He is afraid of tomorrow. CHRIST came that we might have a restored hope. He came to bare that burden of ours. He came to give us that expected end. He came that we might have peace. He came that we might be healed . Isaiah 53 vs. 5: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and w...

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as   my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

TRAPPED BY YOUR OWN DESIRES 1

TRAPPED BY YOUR OWN DESIRES 1 Everybody has a desire and some desires glorify GOD, while some do not. Desire is a strong feeling of wanting something. Many get trapped by their desires. The LORD our GOD knows our needs, desires and expectations; we are to delight ourselves in the LORD, commit our ways unto the LORD so he can give us our desires. Psalm 37 vs. 4-5: Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. Many have desires that are against GOD’s will. Many have desires that will take the place of GOD. Many have desires that will lead to disobedience to GOD’s will. Paul said in 2 Corinthians 10 vs. 5: Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalt itself against the knowledge of GOD, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of CHRIST. There are imaginations and desires that will repel a man from GOD’s plan and will for his life. W...
