TOPIC:  Where Is Your Treasure?

TEXT: Luke 12:32-48

KEY VERSE: “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” – (Luke 12:34)

DCLM Daily Manna Saturday, May 7, 2022 OUTLINE

If men were denied a focus in life, they would lose a basis for existence. They would live an aimless life unbefitting of a human being created by God to enjoy the abundance brought by Christ. But the Lord’s intention is that man should have a noble purpose and pursue it with all his energy.

That was the essential point our Lord Jesus Christ stressed as He addressed His disciples on the key issues of His Second Coming and the need for watchfulness. He spoke of the connection between what you aim for and how this goal should consume all your time and resources. The Lord says the destination of such a prized possession should be “in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.”

God is interested in man’s final destination and seeks his spiritual welfare above all else. He is aware that man’s secular activities can influence his spiritual aspirations. A positive impact would take place only if the goal is heaven with all energies directed towards that goal. Faithfulness, watchfulness, guarding against distractions and the cares of this life are qualities required of a believer who lays his treasure in heaven.

The Christian’s treasures far outstrip the riches of this life. The time, skills and all that we give to God amount to the treasures we are posting to heaven, in appreciation of the blessings we enjoy in Christ. We also fervently preach the Word in obedience to His commandment and to prepare for His imminent return as He promised. No treasure is too great to offer to accomplish this mission.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: No possession is too prized to deposit for safekeeping with God.
