Proverbs 7:1-3

“My son, keep my words,

And treasure my commands within you.

2 Keep my commands and live,

And my law as the apple of your eye.

3 Bind them on your fingers;

Write them on the tablet of your heart.”

 

Jesus taught us the Lord’s Prayer so that we pray to the Father to give us our daily bread. Jesus said in John 4:32-34, “…I have food to eat that you know nothing about…My food…is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work.” There is something more important than the food on the table, healing, blessing, breakthrough that we are looking for in this life. Notwithstanding, we need those things as long as we live here on earth, they are all earthly things. Therefore, do not set your heart on what is earthly. Let us remember there is life after life. What are we going to bring to the life after life, before God? Earthly things end as life is over. But there is only one thing that is eternal that we will one day bring to see the Father – the Word of God in our heart, His commands. The Word of God in our heart is our ticket to eternal life.

 

In Matthew 22:21 Jesus said, “So give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” What is of God must return to Him. With the Word of God in your heart, you can one day return to Him in the world of glory. God’s Word is Spirit that created the material world. This means, the Spirit is superior. Why then, today do people adore the inferior, instead of the superior?

 

Do you know that from the beginning, God wanted men to appreciate the superior? Adam and Eve failed the test of faith to keep the superior command of God because the inferior looked very tempting. I pray that God would strengthen you to treasure the Word of God with all your heart in all you do as it is the ticket to eternity, in Jesus’ name.

THE MYSTERY OF GOD

“Where we desire vengeance, God pursues mercy. Where we encourage pride, God exalts the humble, where we focus on the outside, God looks at the heart. That is the greatest mystery of all – the God who created us now dwells not in temples built with human hands but within us by faith in our heart. (Acts 17:24).”

GOD’S LIFT

“IIf you enter a lift to go to the penthouse of a skyscraper building, how many of you would first press to go to down to the underground car park? No one! Yet, in God’s way of doing things, it is our job to submit and humble ourselves under Him and His job to lift us up in His time and in His way. In other words, humility is God’s lift for elevation.”

THE PILGRIMAGE

“It is only when we know that Heaven is our eternal home that the spiritual strength comes to go through every trial of life and come out stronger. As a child of God, life on this earth is a pilgrimage – where we honour God in each mountain and valley and each season of our lives, and we know that the destination is to be with Jesus forever.”
