Seek The Kingdom Of God With All You have

Matt. 13:44-46

There are two fundamental truths that we can get from the parables of hidden treasures (i) the kingdom of God is a priceless treasure incomparable to nothing else (ii) the kingdom can be attained by giving up everything that could make a believer to be excluded from becoming a candidate of eternal kingdom. With these two truths in mind, you must transfer your whole heart from other interest and place it on Christ Jesus alone. There are two important action steps expedient for each person to take according to these parables. Everyone has to discover the treasure and then, sell all you have to possess it.

Point of Emphasis: The kingdom of God must be desired above all.

Prayer Point: Give me grace Lord to give up everything that would prevent me from being part of God’s kingdom.
