🧰 What's in your Treasure Box?

Jul 10, 2025    Ibn Johnson

Matthew 6:21 – “…where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”


Every believer has a Treasure Box — filled with the things we value, pursue, and prioritize. Some of them are natural, others spiritual. But whether we realize it or not, everything inside is ranked — and God knows the true order.


We often say Jesus is #1…

But what’s really at the top?

👉🏾 My attitude problem?

👉🏾 My pride?

👉🏾 My way of doing things?

And Jesus? Sitting at #4 — not because He’s less important, but because He holds less influence over our decisions and actions.


This month, God is calling us to self-examination.

🔎 What’s in my box?

🔎 What is getting more attention than God?

🔎 What needs to be removed, surrendered, or replaced?


This is also a time for nightly reflection — what the Jewish people call Cheshbon HaNefesh — “accounting of the soul.” It’s practiced in stillness, often on the bed, right before sleep…


Just you and God.

No distractions.

No excuses.

Just honesty.


Psalm 4:4 – Commune with your own heart upon your bed and be still. Selah.


When Jesus is truly #1 in your life, it doesn’t just honor Him — it TRANSFORMS you.

✔️ Old habits lose power

✔️ Worldly distractions lose grip

✔️ You begin to GLOW with the presence of God — just like Moses!


But it starts with knowing where you really are…

Stop manipulating the order in your mind

Let God reveal the truth

Commit to spiritual growth

Let Him enlighten your understanding


Because the Treasure Box... IS YOU.


What’s inside determines your future.
