Holidays
At Valentines Day many of you will give your Sweetheart or Spouse treasures,such as jewelry. I want to tell you of a far greater treasure,The Word Of God! Let's look at a few examples:King Josiah,in II Kings:22:3-20,explains that when Temple leaders were working to restore The Temple,they found The Book Of Gods'Law.They knew what they had discovered was very important (vs.8) Quickly they brought it to the Kings attention.When The Law was read Josiah repented with sorrow of the neglect of his people and Nation. Gods chosen people joined their king in a fresh commitment to The Lord God.They had discovered great treasure!
In Psalms 19:7-11 we learn that Gods' teachings are more desirable then gold;His words bring great reward!What a treasure!
Next we turn to Luke 24:13-32:Two of The Lords' Disciples were traveling to the Village Of Emmaus,following the death and burial
of Christ Jesus.They were discouraged,downhearted,and in deep despair.They meet Jesus as they walk, but do not recognize Him.
He speaks to them from The Old Testament Scriptures,which point to Him as The Messiah.He then reveals Himself to them and vanishes!
(vs.32).Together,they experienced the treasure of the scriptures,and the greatest treasure,seeing their Risen Lord,Jesus!
In Col.2:3 we discover that in Jesus are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge! Wow! We can each receive the treasures of Gods'word(Ps.119:18). In group Bible Study we read that The Word is Jesus!(John 1:1-18)
Also we can have the treasure of memories,how we and loved ones came to a personal trust in The Lord Jesus,His giving to all who
will call on His Name,the lasting treasure,of Everlasting Life!
