6-21-08 Deuteronomy 33:19 You Have Hidden Treasures

Deuteronomy 33:19(NAS)
They shall call peoples to the mountain; There they shall offer righteous sacrifices; For they shall draw out the abundance of the seas, And the hidden treasures of the sand."


Deuteronomy 33:19(NLT)
They summon the people to the mountain to offer proper sacrifices there. They benefit from the riches of the sea and the hidden treasures of the sand.

When Adonai called you to come to Him, His ultimate plan was to take you from the low place where your enemy held you captive and to bring you progressively to a higher level. As a member of His flock, He began to lead you to the mountains, which symbolized His promotion in your life.

Along the way, you began to offer sacrifices unto the One who delivered you out of sin and delivered you into righteousness. Your heart longed to worship the Lord God, for He had cleansed you. He changed your wicked nature into a nature that was right with Him. You were now able to conform to God's rules and standards.

As a nursing mother gives nourishment to her baby, now the Lord God provides you with the nourishment you need to grow and prosper in every area of your life. He gives you the ability to claim the abundant resources that the seas have hidden. He reveals valuable treasures that have been concealed in the desert sands. All of these He puts at your disposal, for you are His called and chosen child. And He desires to bless you.
