Your Treasure
I saw a Believer. They had a shovel and were digging up treasures on a vast beach.
He was finding golden nuggets, buried in the sand. One after another he found them.
It was a never ending supply. And I heard, “I have a Treasure for you!”
And I heard this verse, “IN Him, we live and move and have our being.”
And I heard, “What does IN mean?”
I knew the treasure hunt was on. LOL. We just don’t realize how much meaning is packed into each verse we read in the Bible and even into each single word, even a word like “IN.” It’s amazing!
I was led to look it up in the Greek.
IN : Strong’s Greek #1722: “Of that in which any person or thing is inherently fixed, implanted, or with which it is intimately connected; a primary preposition denoting a fixed position in place, time or state. That which cannot be removed. In the interior of some whole; within the limits of a certain space. “
There are even more amazing meanings which I will include below. The more I searched, the more I found!
Our Abba Father is amazing and His Word is boundless and full of Treasures for us to dig up. He wants you to know what being IN CHRIST means.
We are hidden IN Christ. We exist essentially and permanently in Him.
We have an intimate relationship with our Father and with Jesus. We cannot be removed. We can NEVER be separated from Him, because we are ONE with Him.
We have been ingrafted, established firmly, and implanted IN Christ when we were born again by our Father.
We exist IN HIM permanently and essentially.
We are:
INGRAINED (firmly fixed or established, something so deeply embedded that it cannot be removed)
INSEPARABLE (Two things that are so closely connected that they cannot be considered separate)
INDELIBLE (Not able to be removed)
INERADICABLE (Can not be pulled up by the roots)
INEFFACEABLE (Not possible to remove)
INEXPUNGIBLE (That which cannot be expunged, erased, or obliterated)
INEXTIRPABLE (That which is impossible to eradicate or destroy)
WOW! This is all from the word IN. Isn’t this an amazing revelation!
Now THIS IS the Good News of The Gospel of Christ! Amen?
Our Father is calling us to DIG for His Treasure!
He has already placed the nuggets for His Child to find!
Have NO doubt of your position IN Him in these last days. These Nuggets of Gold are full of Life and Light!
“Beloved. I have Treasures for you, My Child. Dig into the Word.
In each Nugget of Gold, I will manifest Myself to you. You are not on the outside looking in, rather, you are on the INSIDE looking out.
Let no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, which are based on human tradition and the spiritual forces of the world rather than on your position IN Me.
In Me, you live, and move, and have your being. How can the enemy separate you from Me,
Dear One? Your very essence resides in Mine. As it is written, “For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.”
You are clothed with Christ completely. There are no gaps in this Divine Garment or any holes or tears. You wear My Perfect Garment of Grace.
My Robe of Righteousness is your Glorious Covering. Every part of you is INSIDE and completely covered and protected.
As a baby is completely enclosed and protected in the womb of its mother, so you are completely enclosed and protected in Me at your new birth.
Oh, Beloved, how religion hates this Truth. The devil would make you think that he can lure you away from Me and from our intimate fellowship, but this is a lie.
You are firmly planted in Me. You cannot be pulled up by the roots.
You are like a tree planted by Streams of Water, yielding its fruit in season, whose leaf does not wither, and who prospers in all he does.
Who shall separate you from the love of Christ?
Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
No, My Child. In all these things you are more than conqueror through Him that loves you.
You are in the Son and the Son is in the Father. Therefore, you are IN Us.
Have confidence that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate you from the Love of God, which is IN Christ Jesus your Lord!”
IN : Strong’s Greek #1722:
1. Of that in which any person or thing is inherently fixed, implanted, or with which it is intimately connected; A primary preposition denoting a fixed position in place, time or state. In the interior of some whole; within the limits of a certain space. (As a baby in the womb of a mother).
2. Used of that with which a person is surrounded, equipped, furnished, and assisted. Of that in which something is manifest. Of the garments in which one is clad. (Clothed with Christ) Galatians Galatians 3:27 “For as many of you as have been baptized INTO Christ have put on Christ.”
3. Aided by One, by the intervention or agency of Someone (God) who acts on behalf of someone else. A similar use occurs in speaking of the form in which anything appears or is exhibited, twice so in the N. T as “IN A MYSTERY.”
4. Of the whole in which a part inheres, which means to exist essentially or permanently in. Of a person to whom another is wholly joined and to whose power and influence he is joined, so that the former may be likened to the place in which the latter lives and moves. So used in the writings of Paul and of John particularly of intimate relationship with God or with Christ. Ingrafted (to establish firmly; implant) as it were in Christ, in fellowship and union with Christ, with the Lord: most intimately united to Him. (Biblehub, Strong’s Concordance, Merriam-Webster)
