A PECULIAR TREASURE

A PECULIAR TREASURE
When something is peculiar it means it is uncommon, extraordinary, unusual, exceptional and remarkably good.  A treasure is anything greatly valued. It is also a collection of valuable things like jewels and money. A peculiar treasure is one who is unique. One who is exceptionally valued above all things and one who is of great value. 1 Peter 2vs. 9-10 defines a peculiar treasure; but you are a chosen generartion, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the praises of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of GOD; which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. A peculiar treasure is a chosen generation. He is a royal priesthood. He is a holy nation. He is a peculiar person. He shows forth the praise of the Father GOD. Matthew 5 vs. 16: Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your father which is in heaven. A peculiar treasure shines before men, and they see his good works and glorify GOD in Heaven. A peculiar treasure does good things and they glorify GOD. A peculiar treasure is he who was called out of darkness into GOD’s marvelous light.  A peculiar treasure is he who in the time past was not a child of GOD, but now he is called a child of GOD. A peculiar treasure values GOD more than men. A peculiar treasure is a bonafide child of GOD. A peculiar treasure is GOD’s delight. A peculiar treasure is GOD’s favorite. A peculiar treasure values his salvation than riches and wealth of the world. A peculiar treasure treasures GOD’s will and commands. A peculiar treasure loves GOD and keeps his commandments. John 14 vs. 15: If ye love me, keep my commandments. A peculiar treasure is not left comfortless; he is always comforted.

                 
GOD told Moses to tell the Israelites they shall be a peculiar treasure, if they obey his voice and keep his covenant. Exodus 19 vs. 5: Now, therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people; for all the earth is mine. Vs. 6: And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shall speak until the children of Israel. Only those that please GOD and fear Him are His peculiar treasures. Are you one? It continues tomorrow, kindly share with others. It is well with us….

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY Integrity is a word which means steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. It also means the quality or condition of being complete and pure. It could also mean honesty, uprightness, purity, sincerity, decency, virtuous and wholeness. To retain is to keep in possession and maintain something. Many a time people find it difficult retaining their integrity. It takes determination to stand on your integrity. Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. GOD is a lover of men of integrity. Daniel 1 vs. 8-9: But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. Now GOD had brought Daniel into favor and tender love wi...

WORK ON THE WORD 2!

WORK ON THE WORD 2! David knew the essence of working on GOD’s word. He wrote in Psalm 33 vs. 4 (NIV): For the word of the LORD is right and true, he is faithful in all he does. He also hid GOD’s word in his heart that he might not sin against HIM. Psalm 119 vs. 11: Your words have I hidden in my heart that I might not sin against you. Storing GOD’s word in our heart and doing according to it is working on the word. Keeping GOD’s commandment is working on his word. Proverbs 7 vs. 1-2: My sons, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with you. Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of your eye.               Furthermore, working on GOD’s word is being the hearer and doer of the word. James wrote in James 1 vs. 22-24:  But be you doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer; he is like to a man beholding his natur...
