2 Corinthians 4:7; This Treasure in Earthen Vessel
The word “treasure” means “storehouse”. The believer is a most valued storehouse for the glorious message of the gospel. The Holy Spirit will use the human instrument for the proclamation of the gospel to the salvation and edification of souls. The hymn, “We’ve a Story to Tell” described well the excellency of the power of God flowing through a surrendered vessel in the proclamation of the gospel.
We’ve a story to tell to the nations,
That shall turn their hearts to the right,
A story of truth and mercy,
A story of peace and light,
A story of peace and light.
Refrain:
For the darkness shall turn to dawning,
And the dawning to noonday bright;
And Christ’s great kingdom shall come on earth,
The kingdom of love and light.
