I was amazed when I heard that Babe Ruth’s baseball shirt was just sold at auction for over a million dollars! People will pay great money for what they consider to be great treasures. Unfortunately, most of the “so-called” treasures that people run after only have a short-term value. It’s only valuable for maybe several generations. However, God’s treasures are eternal. Psalms 19:10 (TPT) says: “The rarest treasures of life are found in his truth. That’s why I prize God’s word like others prize the finest gold. Nothing brings the soul such sweetness as seeking his living words.” God’s promises and wisdom are treasures that far surpass the value of any earthly treasure, including gold and silver. Those who love, value and seek His truth find that they bring sweetness to the soul. Another translation says that His words are like honey and the honeycomb (NKJV). Many of those who have earthly treasures still do not have any peace and joy in their hearts as these treasures cannot give peace and joy. But those who seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness have access to the peace that passes understanding and the joy of the Lord, which is our strength! And as we seek His Kingdom first, God promises to “add” all of the other earthly needs to them (Matthew 6:33). What is the treasure that your heart longs for?
Psalms 19:10 (TPT) “The rarest treasures of life are found in his truth. That’s why I prize God’s word like others prize the finest gold. Nothing brings the soul such sweetness as seeking his living words.”
Amen! God was just revealing this about His word in Psalm 119:103 very early this morning! His words are sweeter than honey! We are co-laborers on one accord- Thanks Apostle Nazario!
Praise God for His awesome and gracious word!
Amen!
