John Barnett Online Teaching | WHAT ARE HEAVENLY TREASURES? (Q&A-44) @DTBM | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
How far down the road of life have you walked?
Most Americans die at about 75 years old.
Are you halfway or more through an average lifetime yet?
How much of last week was deposited in Heaven?
How much of your time and energy were used by the Lord for His purposes and for His glory?
We deposit money in the bank of Heaven by allowing God to control our time, talents, attitudes, and actions.
His control produces fruit.
That control is called walking in the Spirit or abiding in Christ.
Abiding is a choice we make.
God commands us to abide twice in John 15.
We make daily, hourly, and moment-by-moment choices whether or not to obey.
Fruit is when we grab moments flowing past in that 60–minute–per–hour river we live with, and in the power of God, we use them for His glory.
Then we have something left from those evaporating drops of time that God says we can redeem and deposit into the Bank of Heaven.
So, how is your account in Heaven?
Do you have a plan to make regular and systematic deposits?
This morning, as we look again at Jesus' call to us to abide in Him throughout our lifetime on earth, I want to consider a new angle.
How are those of us past the halfway point of life, those of us on the other side of the hill – how are we doing?
While we are on this earth we can store up treasures in Heaven.
But what does that mean?
Can we lose these treasures?
What does the Bible tell us to do?
