I love watching treasure hunter documentaries on television. They are always filled with intrigue and adventure. We watch as the presenter and his team, metal detector in hand, climb into a deep cave on the hunt for a pirate’s treasure chest loaded with pieces of eight and gold bullion. Sadly, however, they never seem to find the object of the investigation.

However, there is a treasure that you and I can find without scoring the depths of a cave. This treasure is more valuable than gold and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb. It is the auspicious treasure of the word of God.
It is said that when the famous missionary, Dr. David Livingstone, started his trek across Africa he had 73 books in 3 packs, weighing 180 pounds. After the party had gone 300 miles, Livingstone was obliged to throw away some of the books because of the fatigue of those carrying his baggage. As he continued his journey his library grew less and less, until he had but one book left – his Bible.
Psalm 119:162
I rejoice at Your word as one who finds great treasure
The Bible is a library of 66 books penned by 36 people over a period of 1,500 years, yet all the writings of these ancient scriptures are in agreement. All scripture is inspired by the One true God. In my 4 decades of following Christ, I have found the Bible to be my greatest guide. However, the holy scriptures of the Bible do not stand alone. The word of God is synonymous with the Spirit of God, for the word of God is the sword of the Spirit. The word confirms the actions of the Spirit while the Spirit activates the word.
Make reading the Bible a daily habit. Your Bible is your greatest treasure. Don’t rush the reading of the Bible. You have the rest of your life to read the Bible, so read the Bible for the rest of your life.
God-tracking is reading the Bible.
