Matthew 13
Matthew 13:44-47
44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. 45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls: 46 Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it. 47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind
THE LONG SEARCH FOR THE IDEAL:
The power of thought shapes and forms our know world and touch every facet of our being. For creativity and forming ideas from the immaterial to material. Just by ones own imagination cars were formed, people fly, society has become more easy and flex able. Due to ideas manifested.
Social, economical, governments, ideologies, political parties all from ones own idea. Some formulas for governmental systems have been copied through out history. As to show the power of ones own imagination and cause it to come to pass.
Even if the idea was conceived in innocence. Some of mankind has corrupted such ideas and caused evil amongst the world time and time again. Not believing that only the Kingdom established by Elohim has its foundation forever. All other kingdoms serve their purpose to the Glory and Sovereignty of the King.
THE SOURCE OF THE DESIRE:
All religions are a result of man’s search for a Supreme Being—identified as “God,” “divinity,” or whatever other word one chooses to fill in the blank. Religion is man’s attempt to respond to his desire to find some type of meaningful, and possibly intimate, relationship with a Supreme Being as he seeks to find some reasonable meaning to life.
Every man women and child has the innate power to search out something more stronger powerful or admired than them selves. Save narcissistic people.
Yet even the self-acclaimed atheist inherently believes that, at the very least, there is someone or something out there not to believe in.
It is important to at least acknowledge its existence and overpowering control over all mankind and to also appreciate that this deep need controls and dictates man’s behavior, both individually and corporately.
IDENTIFYING THE NEED:
The desire for power is inherent in the human spirit. To understand this desire for power, it is necessary to understand the original purpose and design of mankind and the assignment for which he was created.
Mankind was never meant to dominate one another but given dominion over the earth and it’s creations. This search for power over others and thing is the gift and curse of man. Those whose desire is to use the gifts given them for light or for darkness. Your choices and the search along with the answer is always there.
Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Joshua 24:14-15
14 Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD. 15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
Regardless of all the personal per suits and goals we have in our lives. We will never find complete happiness in the achievement completely. Because they are of substance and obtainable. The ultimate search as the word points out. What are you willing to give up to obtain this hidden treasure It is Obtainable!! Shema Selah we are returning to the origins--the Kingdom!!
