Morning Line: Light
There is Treasure within You!
God has given you talents and He wants to develop them in you to use. They may lie dormant under layers of failure, fear, or low self-esteem. You may be aware of them, not knowing how to put them to work.
Only the God who placed your talents within you knows where they’re hidden and how to release them. By not allowing God to develop your talents you play into losing hands, living far below your potential. The fact is you have so much treasure buried within you that the enemy is out to steal it.
Your talents may be raw, undeveloped, or buried under years of self-doubt, unconfused sin, bad habits, regret, and despair. But God can take something that looks like nothing, and create something wonderful. So imagine what He can do when He has something to start with “YOU”!
Today let’s pray, ‘Father, help us to recognize and maximize the talents You have placed within us, and use them for Your glory.’ And to help others. That’s a prayer God will answer!
“For it is the God who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
But we have this treasure in clay jars, so that it may be made clear that this extraordinary power belongs to God and does not come from us. We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be made visible in our bodies. For while we live, we are always being given up to death for Jesus’ sake, so that the life of Jesus may be made visible in our mortal flesh. So death is at work in us, but life in you.
But just as we have the same spirit of faith that is in accordance with scripture—“I believed, and so I spoke”—we also believe, and so we speak, because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus, and will bring us with you into his presence. Yes, everything is for your sake, so that grace, as it extends to more and more people, may increase thanksgiving, to the glory of God.
So we do not lose heart. Even though our outer nature is wasting away, our inner nature is being renewed day by day. For this slight momentary affliction is preparing us for an eternal weight of glory beyond all measure, because we look not at what can be seen but at what cannot be seen; for what can be seen is temporary, but what cannot be seen is eternal” 2 Corinthians 4:6-18 (NRSVCE)
God’s Love is established for you in Christ Jesus!
“What then are we to say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us? 32 He who did not withhold his own Son, but gave him up for all of us, will he not with him also give us everything else?… No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, Romans 8:31, 32, 37, 38
Stand confident in faith He is with you all the time all the way.
There is Treasure within You!
