2 Corinthians 4:4 NLT 4 Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God.
We can miss our goal when . . .
2. We underestimate and undervalue the treasure. “…When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field.
1 Peter 1:18-19 NLT 18 For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And it was not paid with mere gold or silver, which lose their value. 19 It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God.
