The scripture tells us of a man who discovers a treasure hidden in a field and goes and joyfully sells all that he has to buy the field and enjoy the riches. In this parable, we see the connection of total surrender with the joy of a tremendous wealth. Joy is the motivation of commitment.
“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. (Mt. 13:44)
No believer has ever lived the Christian life beyond their understanding of it. Many if not all our issues and problems faced as Christian’s trace back to an ignorance or lack of understanding of the message of Christ. This was the issue in Hosea’s day: a lack of the knowledge of God (Hos. 4:6) was destroying them. In the generation of the Lord’s return, there will be a great release of revelation and understanding concerning the gospel of Jesus of Christ and His Kingdom.
