[The Glory Unveiled]
I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that I, the LORD, who call you by your name, am the God of Israel. [ Isaiah 45:3 NKJV ]
God often hides His treasures in places that are rarely visited and frequently despised. He stores His richest blessings in the shadows, in valleys most people avoid, in regions where only a few are willing to go. There is wealth in the heart of darkness. There is abundance in places others overlook. Treasures are often concealed where people are unwilling to journey, unwilling to wait, and unwilling to pay the price. There is a powerful lesson in the midnight data packages offered by internet service providers in Ghana—and in many other places as well. At midnight, they release larger and better bundles at a cheaper cost, knowing that most people will be asleep. The price is not in the money; the price is in staying awake. The real cost is discipline, sacrifice, and readiness. Only those who are alert are able to access the treasure. Scripture echoes this truth in the parable of the ten virgins. They all went out to meet the Bridegroom. They all had lamps. They all had expectations. But when the Bridegroom delayed and arrived at midnight—when sleep had overtaken everyone—only five were prepared. Only five had extra oil. Only five had paid the price to remain ready. And only five entered into the celebration. The treasure was available to all, but only the prepared possessed it. In the same way, there is value hidden in places you are reluctant to visit. There is blessing in assignments you are unwilling to accept. There is wisdom in people you are tempted to despise. There is promotion in seasons you would rather escape. Many miss divine opportunities not because God is silent, but because the opportunity arrives in uncomfortable hours, inconvenient seasons, and unfamiliar places. These treasures are reserved for those who will press in, stay awake, remain faithful, and pay the price. If you are willing to endure the night, you will enjoy the riches of the morning. If you are willing to walk into the shadows, you will uncover divine wealth. And if you are willing to remain prepared, you will not miss your moment.
