Do you want a treasure? The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field

The kingdom of heaven is valuable.

Matthew 13:44 states, “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field.”

Do you think of God’s kingdom in that manner?

The Bible says His kingdom is like hidden treasure in a field. This tells me that many people will not learn about His system (His kingdom) because satan will blind their eyes. Thus, the kingdom will be hidden to those individuals.

Now, when someone brings the Word of God to you and you accept and obey it that means you have “found” the treasure (the kingdom of heaven). Then you will hide it so no demon will snatch it away from you. Once you have experienced God’s love and power, you will cherish the treasure.

In addition, you will be so elated of your newly found treasure that you will give up everything to make sure your treasure is protected and maintained.

God is calling you and me to live according to His kingdom, His jurisdiction. Now, the only way to learn about God’s instructions and procedures is by reading our Bibles, obeying the Bible, submitting to God, and rejecting the rules of the world.

Are you willing to give up everything once you have found the treasures in the Word? Are you willing to live by faith and not by sight? Are you willing to not have sex outside of marriage?

Are you willing to suffer injustice? Are you willing to pray and fast unto God? Are you willing to look like a fool for Jesus? Are you willing to give up everything to please Jehovah? Is His kingdom that valuable to you?

Once we reach that level, we will please God and live at a victorious level.
