Treasure Hunt

“For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.”
-2 Corinthians 4:16-18

I am the God of old, helping countless souls in times past. My work has largely been unseen to human eyes. My kingdom is not of this world.

A lost soul, a soul of a man, which is made in My image: this is a great treasure. Nothing else that I have made quite reflects My own glory as a human’s soul - and it is hidden from natural eyes. That which I am seeking, the place which I am working, the land where I am building My kingdom - is invisible.

Marvel not that you do not always see My hand in the physical. Do you not see the invisible work? Principalities and powers, spiritual wickedness: that which is both reviled and treasured cannot be now seen. There is more than a single act, or a mere gesture unfolding, but an on-going war.

Beloved, pray into this realm. It is heaven and hell set in array against one another. Do not think that it must always be the outward, seen things that must be affected. They are mere shadows. They can be telling of the true battle, but they are still yet shadows. Pray into this realm: the spiritual realm. Draw near to Me, and you will feel the urgency of the battle. One day, in heaven, you will know more fully what is truly called “reality.” You will know and see that it has been the things which were unseen, unheard, and untouched in the physical world that were eternal.

Oh please, pray, and be of a willing spirit, both for body and soul to do My work. I am on a treasure hunt. Do not fret at the visible things that bind a soul. Redemption, though physical by My blood and broken body, is reckoned by My Spirit. To remove physical barriers, and yet leave the spiritual, is to leave a soul in Satan’s spider-web.

Pray for that unseen touch. Pray for that eternal working that only I can bring. Look to the unseen land, fight with the unseen foe, and win the precious treasure that cannot be handled with earthly hands.
