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.
