SCRIPTURE READING: 2 CORINTHIANS 4:2-15
KEY VERSE: 2 CORINTHIANS 4:15
We are troubled on every side, yet not distress; we are perplexed, but not despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroy.
Treasure are valuables or something special and it is certain that things like this will be kept in a safe place that is secure from being damage or stolen. This is going to be protected irrespective of any challenges or attack. There are lots of things to be treasure by man and some of them are money, children, certificate or properties to mention but few. However, today scripture gives a different context of treasure. Paul referred to the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ as a treasure.
There is no price to be placed on the privilege of receiving Jesus as savior and having eternal destiny settled. The great treasure of salvation is found in earthen vessel or clay jar. As a Christian, you have the message and you are to share with others. Matthew 28:19. Christian’s physical body is subjected to trial but the power of God could be manifested through this earthly vessel. Do you have this treasure we talked about? Search your heart and do the right thing by making yourself available to be the clay jar. The treasure is priceless, don’t lose it.
Prayer
Lord, give the power of enablement to treasure your gift salvation and to bring other the light of your kingdom in Jesus Christ Almighty name. Amen.
