Hidden Treasures
Hidden Treasures:
Did you know you have a treasury "chest" hidden inside
of you if you are born again?
Colossians 2:3 says "All the treasures of wisdom and
knowledge are hidden in Him." It is so important to acknowledge with our
faith words what God through Christ Jesus has made available to us. Remember, the Bible tells us that getting
wisdom is the principle thing. Take time
to ask the Holy Spirit what you need to know to settle any questions or help
you be the best you He created you to be.
The answer lies within. I
remember one day many years ago my husband and I were riding a motorcycle to
the seaside for the day. We had been
praying about direction to increase our business and claiming God's promise in
Isaiah 60:11 "Your gates will be open continually. They will not be closed
day or night, So that men may bring to you the wealth of the nations...."
As we crossed over a bridge in a lovely village, I saw a large
facility that was popular throughout the UK and I tapped my husband on the back
and said, "We need to get our products in those stores! In the natural it seemed impossible as we
were little kids on the block, but one Word or prompting from the Lord acted on
can change your world and subsequently family, friends and colleagues! The very next day my husband launched a
campaign to get us an audience with the head of the Company. We did face some
pretty enormous obstacles at times but God honored our faith, perseverance,
production of high quality products, and excellent, beyond the norm, service
and the rest is history!
I believe God has wisdom and knowledge inside of you just waiting
to be tapped into to take you to a new level of success and victorious
living. Proverbs 8:20 "I walk in
the way of righteousness, along the paths of justice, bestowing wealth on those
who love me and making their treasuries full." This scripture is talking about Wisdom who
lives inside of You!

What an Amazing Gift!
We all realize when someone gives or "gifts" us with
"something" whether it is a material present or a kind word,
compliment or wisdom about a situation, we each have the choice of accepting
the "gift" or rejecting it. It
is much the same with gifts from the Holy Spirit. It says in 1 Corinthians 2:16
We have been given the mind of Christ!
Unless we acknowledge and focus our attention on this truth and fact, it
will not be fully activated to bring about change and breakthroughs in our
lives.
I know there have been more times than I like to think about when
I
have given people gifts and it seemed that they were neither
appreciated or utilized.
If you think about it, what you give whether time, money,
opportunities, material gifts, etc. these represent a part of who you are an
what your life represents.
In the above Scripture, we have the confident truth that we have
been gifted with the mind of Christ! As believers, it is important to engage
and access this truth by faith so that we make mindful decisions based on who
lives in us and acknowledge what is available in our decision making process
every single day. Just like, as
mentioned earlier, when we have used our time, love, care, resources for others
it makes us genuinely happy and pleased the recipient is benefiting from the
gift.....As you can imagine, it pleases the Holy Spirit for us to benefit from
Jesus' gift to us. The actual meaning of Mind in the Hebrew language is to
conceive, a thing framed and imagination.
Just think, you have been gifted with the imagination of Christ. Stop
and "conceive" that!
Power Confession: I
acknowledge that I have been given the amazing gift of the Mind of Christ.
I accept it. Thank you Lord!
