Preserve The Most Precious Treasure

"There is precious treasure and oil in the dwelling of the wise..."
Proverbs 21: 20

God wants us to be diligent to use the resources, grace and talents He has gifted us, for His glory and not for our own vanity. Moreover the wise are prudent to relish Christ, the real treasure in our earthen vessels (2 Cor.4:7) and the Holy Spirit who's symbolized to oil (Psa.133:1,2) in their dwelling.

We Are God's Most Treasured Possession

"For the LORD'S portion is His people; Jacob is the allotment of His inheritance."
Deuteronomy 32:9

As we consider it a boon to have God for our allocation rather than having an earthly share, so is the Almighty Father pleased to have us as His portion. He chose us by His grace and set us aside for Him as a treasured possession in order to set us on high above all others (26:18,19).

Managing Partners of The Most High

"The highest heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth he has given to mankind."
Psalm 115:16

God, the Creator and Proprietor of the heaven and the earth, loved us so much such that He made us managing partners of His property, the earth. He expects us to take pleasure in the post given and produce yields, using all our talents for our Master. He wants us to enjoy the result of our labor and lack nothing.

A Fit Witness To The Most High

“..having obtained help from God, I stand to this day testifying both to small and great.."
Acts 26:22

When we totally yield ourselves to God, He will start using us and we can never stop witnessing Him to any rank of people we come across. We need the strength of the Holy Spirit and also His continuous instructions to be able to witness. We need to sit at His feet, have a clear view of Him for ourselves, be filled with His love for us and then our love for Him will prompt us to do the work, making us a fit witness to the Most High God.

Peace - The Basic But The Most Excellent Favor

"He grants peace to your borders and satisfies you with the finest of wheat."
Psalm 147:14

Peace is the world's most excellent blessing of an abode and it is the God of peace in whom we can find that real rest for our soul. The peace that God gives is followed by His abundance - the best sort of favor one can enjoy. Peace is the fundamental, essential blessing that we need and all other favors are an addition to it. Let us seek our Peace Maker, Lord and Peace Giver to be satisfied with His peace and thereby enjoy all His extra favors too.
