Treasures in the Word

 

Proverbs 8:11 - For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it. 

I have a relative who when asked, “Do you need anything?” will usually jokingly say, “Yes, a million dollars.” While a million dollars could be used in a great many ways, we are told in Scripture there is something more valuable. 

In fact, we are told that Godly wisdom is so valuable that nothing can be compared to it. Godly wisdom comes from the Scriptures as the Holy Spirit teaches, guides, convicts, and comforts us through our study of the Bible. 

So why do so many put more value on money than they do on the treasure of God’s Word? I believe it’s because most do not understand how spiritually poor they are. As a believer, you have the Holy Spirit indwelling you. The Holy Spirit needs the spiritual food of the Word of God. 

It doesn’t matter how spiritually mature you have become, there is always more to learn, and more blessings God wants to provide as we learn in, Ephesians 1:3 - Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 

Don’t miss the abundant treasures found in the Word of God.
