A HIDDEN TREASURE

(NKJV):     Mark 4:14 – “The sower soweth the word”.

(CEV):     Mark 4:14 – “What the farmer is spreading is really the message about the kingdom”.

Right now, at this very moment, you have hidden within you a treasure that can change the world. A treasure that can change a man’s eternal destiny, that can take him to heaven and save him from hell. A treasure that can turn a person’s poverty into prosperity, his sickness into health, his sorrow into joy.

You have within you the all-powerful Word of God.

Don’t keep it to yourself. Plant it wherever you go! Sow it into the hearts of those you meet. Share it at every opportunity.

“But I don’t know how!” you may say.

Then start learning. Let these three steps help guide the way.

One: Make a decision: Make up your mind and heart today that you are going to share the Word with others no matter what! Determine right now that it’s the most important thing you’ll ever do. Commit to it. Once you’ve done that, you’ll find the rest is easy.

Two: Prepare yourself. Spend time meditating in the Word each day. Allow the Holy Spirit to minister to you. That will make it easy for you to minister to others. You’ll be sensitive to the Holy Spirit and be able to hear His voice. He’ll help you know what to say in each situation.

Three: Stay in faith. Once you’ve shared the Word with someone, trust God for the results. The Word of God does not return void. Even if they seem indifferent to you, even if it appears the Word had no effect, keep believing. Your faith will keep that Word alive inside them, and eventually, it will do its transforming work.

You have hidden within you a treasure that can change the world. What are you going to do with it today?
