                                                                                 God's Treasury

                     The Lord will open to you His good treasure.
                                                                   ~ Deuteronomy 28:12

  "This refers first to the rain. The Lord will give this in its season. Rain is the emblem of all those celestial refreshings that the Lord is ready to bestow upon His people. Oh, for a copious shower to refresh the Lord's heritage!
  We seem to think that God's treasury can only be opened by a great prophet like Elijah, but it is not so, for this promise is to all the faithful. You, too, may see heaven opened. Ask what you desire and you will not be denied, if you abide in Christ and His words abide in you.

  As yet you have not known all the Lord's treasures, but He shall open them up to your understanding. Only the Lord Himself can do this for you, but here is His promise. And if you will hear His voice and obey His will, His riches in glory by Christ Jesus shall be yours."
