Lesson
of the Day
Meet
Jesus : Heart for Heaven
Matthew 6:
19:Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and
rust consume and where thieves break in and steal
20: but lay for yourselves treasures in heaven , where neither moth
nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal.
21: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
The treasure
of our heart is the treasure of our thought and word and action.
Jesus' heart was always toward heaven. His Father's house was His
continual concern. And His Father's house is still His continual
concern. The gathering of men and women together into His body is
about filling His Father's table. Jesus is focused on fulfilling
the heart of His Father. Jesus' heart is His Father's heart. His
treasure was the will of His Father.
ACT!
Does the Father have a specific will for you? Do you know it?
Do you know His heart for you? Pursue filling His house. Invite
someone today to join you the next time you are going to a gathering
of believers.
PRAY!
Precious Father of life and love. I want to fill Your house
with others. I want my treasure to fill up Your house. Your house
is my heart. My heart is to fill up the table of blessing in Your
house that You as Father would have more sons and daughters.
Focus me. Help
me to see Your specific will for my life and action. Help me to
think of You and Your house, Your heaven first above all.
