TREASURES IN THE DARKNESS

By John Ollis

How is the pandemic effecting you ? Has it effected your daily life and lifestyle very much? Has the stress of it all trying to get to you?Do you have more time on your hands? If your response is positive to any of these questions I want to recommend you do something.

No one will argue we are all in “unprecedented” times, and we need to remind ourselves of what Paul says in Rom.8:28 PASSION So we are convinced that EVERY detail of our lives is CONTINUALLY woven together to fit into God’s perfect plan of bringing good into our lives, for we are his lovers who have been called to fulfill his designed purpose.

We know the NKJV better where Paul says “And we know that ALL things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose”.

We sure don’t know all the reasons for this season, but we are convinced God wants to use this season for our SPIRITUAL GOOD.

So what is my recommendation? Turn with me to Isaiah 45:3 NKJV I will give you the TREASURES IN THE DARKNESS
And hidden RICHES of secret places,
That you may know that I, the Lord,
Who call you by your name,
Am the God of Israel.

MESSAGE I’ll lead you to buried treasures,
secret caches of valuables—
Confirmations that it is, in fact, I, God,
the God of Israel, who calls you by your name.

What a glorious promise, and the reality is that in many ways we are in the dark, but God wants to “meet us in this dark place” and LEAD US TO BURIED TREASURES, A SECRET CACHE OF VALUABLES.

Let us decide to set aside MORE QUALITY TIME every day to SEARCH FOR HIDDEN TREASURE IN THE WORD OF GOD.

Just beneath the surface of the Word of God , if you will search and meditate on the Scriptures you will find “hidden treasure”.

Why not consider this recommendation
