TREASURES FROM THE DARK

 "I will give you the treasures of darkness And hidden riches of secret places, That you may know that I, the Lord, Who call you by your name, Am the God of Israel." — Isaiah 45:3 (NKJV)


In Isaiah 45:3, God made a powerful promise. He said He would give treasures from dark places—things that are hidden and valuable. These treasures are not just gold or money, but blessings, wisdom, and divine help. God gives these treasures so we may know that He is the Lord, the one who calls us by name.

Since sin entered the world, people have lived in darkness. This darkness includes pain, fear, confusion, and spiritual emptiness. But even in the middle of this darkness, God has given us great blessings. Life itself is a treasure. His love, His presence, and the purpose He has for our lives are all treasures too.

However, the devil doesn’t want us to find or enjoy these blessings. He tries to hide them from us by filling our lives with fear, doubt, and sin. He doesn’t want us to succeed. He doesn’t want us to live in peace, joy, or freedom. The enemy's goal is to stop you from becoming what God created you to be.

But God is saying, “I will give you treasures.” He wants to open your eyes, bless your life, and give you success—so you will know that He is your God.

When God blesses you—when He brings you out of trouble, opens new doors, and answers your prayers—don’t forget Him. In Deuteronomy 8:10–11, the Bible says, “When you have eaten and are full… beware that you do not forget the LORD your God.”

Always remember that every blessing comes from Him. Stay thankful. Stay humble. And keep walking with Him every day.

Prayer: Lord, thank You for every treasure You’ve given me, even in hard times. Open my eyes to see Your blessings. Help me never to forget You, but to love and follow You always. Amen.

DO NOT COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS

  "I know what it is to be poor or to have plenty, and I have lived under all kinds of conditions. I know what it means to be full or to be hungry, to have too much or too little. Philippians 4:12 CEV" God’s purpose for humankind is for everyone to succeed, but each person has their own season. Just as each flower blooms in its own time, each of us has a time set by God. When that season comes, God will make you prosper. Until then, keep praying and working hard, trusting in His timing. When you look at your peers, former classmates, family members, or others in your age group and see their success, it’s easy to start comparing. Maybe a friend just built a new house or got a high-paying job, or perhaps someone you know is getting married. If you feel like you’ve achieved more, you may feel good about yourself. But if you feel like you’re still “behind,” it’s easy to feel discouraged and inadequate. This is where your perspective can become distorted. Some people think they ar...

GOD'S PLAN TO PROSPER YOU

  "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33 (NIV)"   God wants you to prosper, and He has a specific plan and method to ensure your success. This special way God has designed for your prosperity is clearly outlined in today’s verse. Let’s break it down: so let us break this verse down;  1. What is the Kingdom of God? The Kingdom of God is His rule over all creation, especially in the hearts of His people. Seeking the Kingdom means living according to God’s will, building a relationship with Him, and working to fulfill His purposes on earth. The word "seek" implies deliberate and consistent effort. It’s not a one-time decision but a daily endeavor to prioritize God in every area of life.  2. "And His Righteousness" Righteousness is living a life that reflects God’s character and standards. It involves moral integrity, obedience to His commandments, and living by faith.  3....
