Spiritual Currency

1Timothy 2:18-19
18Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. 19In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take of the life that is truly life.

An investment in spiritual currency is like none other. The apostle Paul wrote his letter to Timothy about treasure. Most think of treasure as financial but treasure can be whatever is valued. The highest currency to our Lord is not in paper money but in spiritual. Why? Because God is spirit and we are to worship Him in spirit and in truth. What is spiritual currency? It is in an investment in the Kingdom of God. Well how does one invest in the Kingdom of God? Not only is it doing good but having the willingness (wanting) to share and planting seeds in others so that they can go forth and fulfill their purpose. Many do not understand when you invest in the kingdom of God, it is not a small investment but rather greater than anything you can give. Every investment in the kingdom of God whether through your pocket book, kindness, encouragement or knowledge and wisdom you give to assist someone gets documented into the Lamb's book of Life. When you depart from your natural body, Your spirit has to give account face to face with the Lord on what you have done. If all you have done is just about you, you, you then what spiritual currency have you acquired? None. But when you look beyond how you can benefit and concentrate on providing what someone in the kingdom of God needs, you are making a deposit. Your reward can be earthly if God so chooses but often your reward is stored in heaven waiting for you because you looked beyond yourself. Bless God this day if you have made an investment into the kingdom of God with spiritual currency!!!

P.S. Get Your JOY In The Morning is now available through www.sears.com! To every single leader (title or no title) that has poured into me, I THANK YOU graciously for depositing into me for the sake of the kingdom of God (knowingly or unknowingly). Your deposit was indeed a spiritual investment documented into the Lamb's Book of Life. That is not small but HUGE!!! And I LOVE YOU for it!!! GOD BLESS YOU!!!
