The Five Invisible Treasures Within God’s Kingdom - 3
The Mind and the Treasure
A treasure can help us
detect whether someone is mature or young. Children treasure temporal things
with all their hearts. What a child values differs from what an adult treasures.
Suppose you ask someone to select a toy stone or land.
If that person chooses a
toy stone, categorize that person as a child. Irrespective of his age, he is
immature if that person chooses a toy stone above land. That person can be fifty
years. However, he is still a child because a toy stone depreciates quickly.
Someone can destroy that
toy stone within seconds. However, land appreciates. You can grow varieties of
seeds (food) on land and sell some of the products. You can build a church and
house on the land.
You can build businesses
on the land. You can rent the land. You can do many things with land. You can
even use some of the acquired money you earned on the land to buy toy stones. However,
a child will choose a toy stone for short-term pleasure.
Sometimes, I marvel when
people judge me by age. Some people look at my height and face and conclude I am young. These people do not know that age is just a number. You can
be fifty years and still think like a child.
Maturity begins with your
mindset, ideologies, beliefs, and philosophy. Your decisions and choices
determine your maturity. What you treasure can determine your maturity. It is
not enough to have hair all over your body.
You can even have grey or
white hair and still act like a child. Age is just a number. Your age might
give you some experience. However, the experience cannot compete with wisdom.
You need wisdom in the Word (the Holy Bible).
Have you ever asked yourself
why most African countries live in poverty? It’s because most of the “leaders”
are immature. Naturally, they are old (aged). However, they are children in the
brain.
Mentally, spiritually,
and psychologically, they are immature. Most African countries can develop
their economy. However, we have few mature leaders. The few mature leaders are the
ones making dramatic progress.
We have numerous
treasures. However, we cannot use these resources to grow the Church and economy.
Until mature leaders take top leadership positions, we will continue to swim in
the pool of poverty.

five ways
to unlock hidden treasures in God’s kingdom.
In this article, I will
enumerate five additional ways to unlock the hidden treasures in God’s kingdom
and unlock the keys within the cross of Christ Jesus. Do well to share the link
to this article so others can receive the wisdom that brings deliverance.
Five Ways to Unlock Heavenly Treasures
1. Heartfelt worship and praises
Do you know that
Spirit-led worship and praises are divine seeds? Yes, worshipping and praising
God with an understanding heart generates divine treasures. When we praise and
worship God from the deepest part of our hearts, it ascends into the spiritual
realm as a sacrifice.
You can download and read
my books, the mysteries of spiritual songs
and How to Worship God in Truth and Spirit, for more profound revelations. Remember, worship and praise
are spiritual seeds.
The more you worship and
praise God in your chambers, the holy angels of God get the materials to
furnish your mansion in heaven. Keep worshipping and praising God, the holy
altar will speak for you. Commune with the Holy Spirit through hymnals,
instruments, biblical songs, and anointed gospel songs from your heart. Your
treasures will multiply.
2. Laboring in the Church
Another way to generate
heavenly treasures is to become a servant in the house of God. For instance,
you can donate yourself to the church as a cleaner. Sweeping the church and
doing works people don’t want to do in the church produce uncommon treasures in
heaven.
Some people work in the
house of God purposely for money and other material gains. Don’t act like them.
Work in the church as if you are working for God. Desire to please God, not
man. Your treasure will increase tremendously.
Serve a called and chosen
servant of God. Your treasures in heaven will multiply. Serve the church and
spiritual leaders from your heart, and with divine wisdom, your treasures in
heaven will be great.
3. The Word
Do you know that the Word
of God is an asset? The Word is a precious treasure. The more you feed on the
Word (the
Holy Bible), it builds your soul. When you become one with the Word,
your relationship with the spiritual forces becomes strong.
The more the Word enters
you, your soul dominates the affairs of the Spirit. However, if you lack the
Word or have little Word in you, you will struggle to walk and live in the Spirit (the books are
free on my blog).
You can be great on earth
and be poor in the Spiritual realm. The Word of God strengthens our soul and
spirit (meditate on 1 Peter 2:2). When we feed and act on the Word, our soul
prospers. You receive inner peace, joy, and faith when you become one with the
Word.
With these intangible
assets reigning in your soul, you triumph over the affairs of life. Do not
neglect the Word because blessings, power, anointing, healing, peace, joy,
favor, light, and priceless treasures dwell in it.
4. Treasures in the mud
Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD
revealed?
For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of
a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there
is no beauty that we should desire him.
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted
with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised,
and we esteemed him not.
Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did
esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised
for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with
his stripes we are healed.
All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own
way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he
is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is
dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation?
for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my
people was he stricken.
And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death;
because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief:
when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his
seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall
prosper in his hand.
He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied:
by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear
their iniquities.
Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he
shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul
unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of
many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Isaiah 53:1-12 KJV
The above Holy Scriptures
describe the ministry, mission, and mysteries of the Messiah (Christ Jesus).
The religious unbelievers and Gentiles wounded our Savior and Lord Christ Jesus
for our transgressions.
They bruised Christ Jesus
for our iniquities. By the stripes of Christ Jesus, we (Christian believers)
received our healing. Christ Jesus went through pain, rejection, affliction,
false accusation, shame, depression, pain, and abuse for our deliverance.
Mary, the mother of
Christ Jesus, and the disciples of Christ Jesus wept for Christ Jesus. However,
Christ Jesus suffered for our salvation. While Christ Jesus was receiving
beatings, we (Christian believers) received divine healing.
The blood from Christ
Jesus' wounds settled the penalty of sin. Christ Jesus’ death ended the reign
of Satan and Sin. His resurrection affirmed our justification. Some people
might have doubted Christ Jesus is the Son of God because of the affliction.
Some friends and enemies
of Christ Jesus might have concluded that Christ Jesus was not the real Messiah
because God Almighty would not allow his Son to suffer the abuse of sinners. However,
the cross paved the way for Christ Jesus' crown.

Sometimes, God will allow us to pass through pain, rejection, shame, abuse, depression, and injustice because of the crown. Don’t allow temporal suffering to blind the treasures. Stand on the solid rock (the Holy Bible). Believe in Christ Jesus with all your heart because…
- Within the wounds hides the wonders.
- Within the misery hides the miracles.
- Within the rejection rest the resurrection.
- Within the pain hides the power.
- Within the shame hides the shield.
- Within the rejection hides the revival.
- Within the trial and test hides the treasure.
