Laying Our Treasures Up In Heaven

According to many places and many forms of teaching it the Bible, God has told us to lay our treasures up in heaven. Matthew 6:19-21 is a popular set of scriptures for this particular subject.

Matthew 6:19- "Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:"

Matthew 6:20- "But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not breakthrough or steal:"

Matthew 6:21: "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."

If we have worldly treasures and we hang on to the things down here, we will keep them, but loose our salvation. But, if we lay our treasures up in heaven the ones that matter, like our hopes and dreams and our HEARTS!!! we will dwell in our Fathers kingdom, that's not all we have to do of course, we have to obey His will, not just following the Bible but listening to His voice. These things shall all pass away anyhow so why not just give your soul to JESUS because in the end, that's the only thing going that will not perish. JESUS will take good care of it and only give it His best for your best interest. Like it says in the 21st verse, where we lay our treasures, there are our hearts as well. If we have worldly lusts and keep our treasures down here then we shall surely perish, but if we lay our treasures up in heaven we will live on forever more with our LORD and Savior. When we lay up our treasures in heaven it's a way of trusting God, saying that you trust Him to take care of them. There's nothing wrong with dreaming, just put your dreams in Heaven with God, He will take care of them I promise. I keep my hopes and dreams in Heaven and God has not failed me once, He just says I have something better in mind. So, this day, I ask you if you have not to lay your treasures up in Heaven where nothing can destroy it. God loves you so much, even when we fail Him, have faith!

I hope this blessed you, even though it's short there is a lot to those scriptures, more than you could ever put into words.

Have a blessed day,
