Epic Journey Podcast #27 – Episode Notes
God has hidden treasures for you, and there is no greater treasure than finding Gods word and applying it to your life.
God has a stash of valuable wisdom ready for you to find and He knows just what you need and when you need it.
Apply these treasures of wisdom to your life, and you will live out His amazing plan.
revelationcentral.com sermon notes by Robert Pace about God giving us treasures…
He writes this:
“Several years ago, the Lord spoke to me from Isaiah 45, where God says, “I will give you the treasures of darkness and wealth stored in secret places.”
And then he mentions two ideas that the Holy Spirit suggested from this verse.
(1) When God says he will “give us the treasures of darkness and wealth stored in secret places,” it means God wants to open your eyes to things that would otherwise remain unseen, so you can claim what would otherwise remain unclaimed.
(2) And #2, the question comes up in His mind, Where can I find these “treasures of darkness and riches hidden in secret places. (45:3)? Think about the answer: The “treasures of darkness” are stored in—of all places—darkness! And the “wealth of secret places” is hidden in—of all locations, secret places.”
We can miss them if we’re not searching for them.
These are hidden treasures that require acting in faith by seeking Him and His word in order to find them.
In Colossians 2:2-3
Paul is encouraging the Colossians, they were believers,
That their hearts may be encouraged, having been knit together in love, and attaining to all the wealth that comes from the full assurance of understanding, resulting in a true knowledge of God’s mystery,
And he goes on to reveal what Gods’ mystery is:
That is, Christ Himself, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
Your hearts are valuable to Him and in Deuteronomy 26:18 it reminds you how valuable you are to Him.
It says this:
The Lord has today declared you to be His people, a treasured possession, as He promised you, and that you should keep all His commandments;
You are His treasured possession. You are valuable to God. He claims you as His own and says you belong to me.
Proverbs 3:13-15 reminds us of the benefits of wisdom
How blessed is the man who finds wisdom, And the man who gains understanding.
For her profit is better than the profit of silver And her gain better than fine gold.
She is more precious than jewels; And nothing you desire compares with her.
So you are reminded of how valuable your search for treasures is going to be.
We hope you’ll get excited about the pursuit, and in knowing that it will lead you to great rewards for your life.
We’re grateful for you and we’re praying for you,
