  Speaker 1: thirty four. Treasures in Heaven Treasures in Heaven, Matthew Chapter six,
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Really from verse nineteen, lay not up for yourselves treasures
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: upon h where moth and rust dot corrupt, and where
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: thieves breakthrough and still, but lay up for yourselves treasures
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: in heaven. Treasures in heaven were neither moth nor rust
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: dot corrupt, And natives do not break through nor still.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Also in the world today, we see that it's difficult
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: for people to cultivate the habit of paying attention to
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: the laying of treasures in heaven. And so while they
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: lay for themselves treasures upon the earth, they see a
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: time and season come for them to take off their treasures.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: They discover that it has been corrupted it has been stolen,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: it has been affected by the rust and mark that
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: Jesus talk about. Why because it is ately. This is
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: why we discussed in our last episode about the foundation
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: of dead works, and we simply found out that dead
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: walks are works that do not please God. Yes, Jesus
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: now tries to explain insame similitude, that this is the
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: vehicle that enables us to lay up treasures in heaven,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: my teacher. That is really from verse one down to
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: where we just read about the treasures of heaven, Jesus
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: was trying to explain to us the necessity of a
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: man that dwells in the sacred place of the Mozile,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: because that is the only way for a man to
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: be able to fully please God. First he talked about
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: arms giving. He talked about prayer and fasting. He talked
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: about things that are done that should be done from
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: dwelling in the secret place, doing things not to please men,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: because without dwelling in the secret place, it is impossible
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: to lay up treasures in heaven. He said, let your
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: left hand not know what your right hand is doing.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: He said, do not sound the trumpets of your arms giving,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Do not give arms to be seen of men. So
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: any help you render to a man in me, any help,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: any assistance, should not be done from a place of
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: pride of because arms giving helping is one of the
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: expressions or the messages that comes from the Gospel of Christ,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: the salvation of a man soul. Because there are people
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: that will not be saying if there are no arms
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: giving either there is no helping of their life and destiny.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: So the helping is in two ways. Jesus is trying
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: to say, do not be exercised with the spirit of pride. Yes,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: because pride we want to show men. We want to
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: sound the trumpet. We want the left hand to know
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: what the right hand is doing. The second thing Jesus
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: talked about in the same similitude of being in the
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Secret is the prayer of the righteous and also the
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: first thing of a man. There he showed us how
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: to conduct prayer and how to conduct ourselves during first thing,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: because remember, your prayer is not to men but to God,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: and your first thing is not to men but to God.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: And your arm's giving it's not whatever you do. That's
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: why he said at the end that seek first the
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Kingdom of God, where your treasure is that is where
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: your heart will definitely be. That's why he said in
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: verse twenty four that we cannot serve two masters at
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: the same time. It is impossible, And he gave a
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: practical example that we cannot serve God and Mammon. Mammon
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: is the god of money. That means a time comes.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: He's trying to show us that a time will come
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: where you need to declare his lordship over your life.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: That is just less. There are times and seasons that
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: comes for you to prove that you are truly a
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: circumds to the event that happens to a man, for
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: him to prove that he is a believer he believes
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: in Jesus. So also there are times that will come
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: that you will be instructed on proving that you're not
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: serving Mamma. You're not serving what money. That means you're
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: not a slave to Mamma. But money is your servant.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: This is why we hear testimonies of our father's of
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: it talking about how they get everything that is in
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: terms of money for the kingdom, and they are opining today.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: So in that verse that Jesus is trying to tell
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: us that we cannot save God and Mammon. He explained
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: the next days that in that season, in such times
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: when you need to prove that Mammon, you're not serving Marmo,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: he said that you should take no heed of what
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: you eat, what you wear, what you weed, because he
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: knows that such periods will come for you to make
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: sacrifices to prove that money is saving you and you're
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: not saving You're not a slave to Mamma. This is
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: how we lay up treasure. That's why he said at
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: the end that we will seek fast the Kingdom, seek
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: facet the Kingdom of God, and every other thing shall
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: be added onto you, including money. So yes, Jesus is
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: trying to tell us that in such seasons, because those
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: seasons will come, a man will need to remind the
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: cosmos that he is of the Lord, that the Lord
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: is his master. He doesn't serve to masters. This is
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: the essence of the Gospel consciousness that we preach, how
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: that people can declare the lordship of Christ over their lives,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: both in their finances and every area of their lives.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: So the same way a man's heart is committed to
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: storing up earthly treasures is also what Jesus is trying
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: to tell us that we should be committed in storing
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: of heavenly treasures because in the same way, same money,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: and the time will come. The Bible says improve HAPs
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Chapter ten, verse two, that treasures of wickedness profit nothing,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: profit nothing but righteousness. I will put the treasures of
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: righteousness deliver it from debt. So it's trying to tell
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: us that there is a time that treasure that a
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: man will take will return, will fall back to the
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: treasures that he has acquired, because it is that his treasure,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: that his savings, that he is, what he has put
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: his heart to, that will save him, that will deliver him.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: So if your treasure is in the kingdom is of God,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: then you have the assurance that it is God that
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: will deliver you in the day. In the day you
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: need deliverance that world, that the treasures of righteousness will
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: deliver us from debt. That word dat talks about pestileness,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: talks about ruin, talks about the night seasons of a man.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: If you are able to go all out to invest,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: to sacrifice for something and or someone dear to you,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: you have in no wise laid up a treasure for
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: yourself which can be recalled later in another season of
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: your life. So the reason why your hearts should be
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: centered should be focused on doing things in the secret
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: place of the Most I on the shadow of the Almighty,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: is so that your efforts, your works, your good works,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: your deeds, your sacrifices, your commitments, your prayers, your fasting,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: your arms will be recognized in heaven as treasures that
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: has been laid up that will speak for you. I
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: remain the fate campaign of Christ. Remember, be God fiding,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Be God fedent. The Lord commands the angels of your
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: work has to be stayed. The Lord lifts up the
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: light of his countenance upon you. Blessed be God for eternity.
