Where’s Your Heart These Days?

Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. What does that mean? The Christian heart should be fixed on things above, on the things pertaining to life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3). When our hearts are geared towards the Lord’s will more than the things that pertain to our life on earth, treasures in heaven will be our portion. If our hearts are set on the pride of life, or making a name for ourselves, and we’re making good money doing it, your treasures are for earthly gain, not heavenly. Where our treasure is, there will also be the manifestation of your heart’s desire. The christians participating in God’s plan of reconciliation on a regular basis are demonstrating where their hearts are, and so shall their treasure be waiting for them in heaven. Those that remain steadfast under the trials and storms that come shall receive the crown of life (James 1:12). Keeping the Lord’s commandments shows the Lord we love Him (John 14:15). Once our hearts are fixed on the Lord and not the pleasures of this life, we’ve positioned our hearts for treasures in heaven because our hearts are there, more than planet earth (Psalm 57:7). By serving God and not this world, the grace and favor of God gets activated in our lives to cause riches and honor to come our way.
