The Strength To Put Your Treasure Rightly
The bible says “And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it. For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them. But seek His kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well” In this life, what spurs you to do what you are doing? Be it studying, working, living with family and loved ones - what causes you to make certain decisions, give up certain things for the others? If the treasure in your heart is on the tangible things, that reflects your value in life. What ever actions you do or decisions you made, all are for the pursuit of the tangible things your heart desire. If the treasure in your heart is on the kingdom of God, the knowledge of God in you will propel you to eat, drink, talk and work for the sake of gospel today. If you have already known the truth yet you are unable to taste the joy of submission in all things today, continue to seek God by going into deeper and more intense prayer, for God will leave no stones unturned if the children seek to confirm His truth in all things.

Now, Choose Life Over Death
Truly, there are two ways put before us when the Gospel is presented to us. There is simply no sitting on the fence. When the Gospel truth comes to us, our heart will virtually choose something, for the better or for worse. Either we yield our sovereignty to God (from the Gospel we have heard), or we continue to hold on to our own sovereignty. Or either we subconsciously yield our will to obey His revealed will or we turn away from it. Even if we remain indifferent, that is already a choice. So the Gospel is of life and death, blessings and curses. So choose life over death each time you hear His life-giving word.
