๐Ÿ’Ž Treasured

“For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” — Matthew 6:21

There is a treasure that cannot be touched by thieves, corrupted by moths, or shaken by the world. That treasure is God Himself. Not what He gives—though His gifts are good—but who He is. He is the treasure of our hearts, and He is ours forever.

God is not like man. He doesn’t leave when we fail. He doesn’t withdraw His love when we mess up. He is faithful even when we are faithless. From the very beginning, when Adam sinned and broke the perfect world God created, God still covered him. That’s what a Father does. That’s what our Father does.

His covenant with us is not transactional. It’s not based on performance. It’s parental. He is not only Creator, He is Abba—our Father. Gracious and merciful, slow to anger, overflowing with steadfast love. He doesn't just forgive sin—He remembers it no more. He doesn’t hold it over our heads. He holds us in His hands.

When fear creeps in, when shame whispers, when doubt clouds our vision—remember this: Nothing can separate us from His love. Not mistakes. Not weakness. Not even our wandering hearts. We belong to Him. We are redeemed by the precious blood of Jesus. And He will never leave us nor forsake us—for any reason.

If you’re struggling today, if you’ve fallen short or feel far from God, lift your eyes. Fix your heart on Him. Let the truth of who He is be louder than the noise around you. He is our rock, our refuge, our peace. And Isaiah 26:3 reminds us: “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are stayed on You, because they trust in You.”

God is your treasure. And even more beautifully—you are His.

You Are Mine

There are few things more powerful than being seen —truly, deeply seen. And there are few words more affirming than the ones God speaks in Isaiah 43:1: “But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and He that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art Mine.” This verse hits with the force of a knockout punch. It’s God stepping in and declaring: “I don’t care what you’ve been through. I don’t care what name you’ve answered to. I don’t care what’s tried to claim you—I ALREADY DID. YOU. ARE. MINE.” Let’s break it down. Jacob vs. Israel: Who You Were vs. Who You’ve Become God doesn’t just call one name in this verse—He calls two. Jacob and Israel. This isn’t accidental; this is intentional. ๐Ÿ”น Jacob (Ya‘aqov - ื™ַืขֲืงֹื‘) means supplanter, deceiver, heel-grabber. Jacob was the struggler, the one who grasped at what wasn’t his, the man who schemed his way through life. His name was tied to his flaws, his past, his reputati...

Breaking the Lock and Key: A Call to Transformation

  1. Introduction: The Invisible Chains of Conformity “Do not be conformed to the image of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind” (Romans 12:2). This verse is not just a spiritual call—it’s a radical challenge to every system that seeks to mold us into something we’re not. Conformity, whether to cultural norms or religious rules, often feels inevitable. Yet, it can trap us in a cycle of dependency, where access to fulfillment, purpose, or salvation seems locked away by those in power. But there is another way. Transformation through the renewing of the mind is the antidote to conformity—a pathway to reclaiming the freedom Christ offers. To break free, we must recognize how the "lock and key" dynamic operates in the world around us. 2. The "Lock and Key" of Cultural Conformity The Chains of Expectation: From the moment we enter the world, we’re handed a script: achieve success, accumulate wealth, look perfect, and conform to society's defini...

Naturally

There’s a phrase that came to me one morning, somewhere between sleep and waking: "You got a natural on the way!" It landed in my spirit with excitement—like a whisper from Heaven. And the more I sat with it, the more I realized it wasn’t just a random phrase. It was a confirmation. I’ve been in pursuit of purpose for most of my life. But if I’m honest, that pursuit was often desperate—striving to prove something, misusing the very talents I was naturally given in an effort to make a name for myself. And while serving time for that pursuit, I discovered things in me that no one taught me. Insights. Truths. Talents, that just came naturally. Then it hit me: that’s the point. Genesis 1:26–28 tells us we were made in the image of God. Before the fall. Before religion. Before shame. We were blessed. And that blessing wasn’t ornamental—it was functional. It was meant to activate our design: Be fruitful Multiply Replenish the earth Subdue it Have dominion We weren’t made to strugg...
