There are people that spend their life looking
for treasures and come up empty. Recently a Florida treasure-hunting family struck it rich when
they discovered an estimated $300,000 worth of gold coins and chains off the
coast of Fort Pierce. The
treasure found by the Schmitt’s comes
from the wreckage of a convoy of 11 ships that were destroyed in a hurricane
off the coast of Florida in 1715 while en route from Havana to Spain. Are there
more treasures to be found than simply gold? The greatest treasure comes through obtaining knowledge
of God’s Word! Hosea 4:6 confirms this by saying, “My people are
destroyed for a lack of knowledge.”
David said, “Your word is a lamp for
my feet, a light on my path. (Ps 119:105) There is a path that leads to Peace, Forgiveness,
and Eternal life. Allah doesn’t have the answers to Peace; Buddhism can’t give you forgiveness, Hare Krishna
can’t bring you fulfillment. Christian Science can’t give you hope in your darkness. “Salvation is found
in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by
which we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12) It’s Only Jesus Christ
that brings life.
A lot of people are going SIDEWAYS in
life. Twenty months ago on January 13, 2012, under the command of Captain
Francesco Schettino, the huge cruise ship grounded with about 3,229 passenger
and about 1,000 crewmembers at 9:45 p.m. in calm seas. Thirty people were
killed and two passengers are still missing and presumed dead. The Costa
Concordia is the length of three football fields and as high as an 11-story
building. This past week, that 114,500-ton vessel was
slowly rotated towards an upright
position using a series of huge jacks and cables prior to being
towed away and broken up for scrap, probably next Spring. A multinational team
of 500 salvage engineers has been on Giglio for most of the past year,
stabilizing the wreck and preparing for the lifting operation, which has never
been attempted on such a large vessel in such conditions. The cost to lift it
out of its wreckage was the tune of 795 million dollars!
Jesus
Christ spent everything He had to lift YOU
UP out of your
wreckage of sin. It cost Him His life, everything to deliver you from
your hurt, pain, sorrow, despair and iniquity. There is only one person that
would love to keep you in the dark. You guessed it; his name is Lucifer, Beelzebub,
the fallen angel, Satan. “The
god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see
the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of
God.” (2 Corinthians 4:4)
Aren’t you
glad somebody gave you “The Knowledge” of the Love of God? Oh, I’m so grateful
that somebody told me WHO the Son of God is. Peter said, “Thou art the
Christ the Son of the Living God.” Choose today to add to your faith “The Knowledge”
of WHO Jesus Christ is. Dannydevotional.com
