It means that if Christ's words are the substratum, so to speak, of your wishes, then your wishes will harmonise with His will, and so 'ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. Christ loves us a great deal too well to give to our own foolish and selfish wills the keys of His treasure-house.
Once again the god of self, who has so many votaries in this world, had gained a great triumph, and the prince of this world got a more sure seat in the heart of the young man. But all unknown to him there was one "climbing for him the silver, shining stair that leads to God's great treasure-house," and claiming for her fatherless boy "the priceless boon of the new heart."
For I may as well inform you at once that if you have come hither with any thought of pillage, you are too late; the plate fleet left here nearly two months ago with the year's accumulations of treasure, and our treasure-house is at the moment absolutely empty, as I am prepared to prove to you by taking you to it, if you doubt my word.
For all godliness has 'promise of the life that now is, as well as of that which is to come, and 'in keeping God's commandments, as well as for keeping them, 'there is great reward, a reward realised in the present, even although Death holds the keys of the treasure-house in which the richest rewards are stored.
Conceive yourself at the door of the world's treasure-house guarded by a child an idle irresponsible child playing knuckle-bones on whose favor depends the gift of the key, and you will imagine one half my torment.

What it consisted of, nor the value of it, he could not tell. The Treasure-house was also the Great Temple; and of the treasure only the Priest Captain had accurate knowledge.
And to the demands of such she always opens her treasure-house, for the supply is always equal to the demand. All things are in the hands of him who knows they are there. Of all known forms of energy, thought is the most subtle, the most irresistible force.
But for actual material, the compiler is absolutely to be trusted; and Völsunga Saga is therefore, in spite of artistic faults, a priceless treasure-house for the real features of the legend. There are two main elements in the Volsung story: the slaying of the dragon, and the awakening and desertion of Brynhild.
This: that what is with the treasure must fare as the treasure; that the heart which haunts the treasure-house where the moth and rust corrupt, will be exposed to the same ravages as the treasure, will itself be rusted and moth-eaten. Many a man, many a woman, fair and flourishing to see, is going about with a rusty moth-eaten heart within that form of strength or beauty.
Then the priests mildly remonstrated because the coronation diadem had not been brought back to their store of treasures, but was still missing. "So, in your treasure-house at Saint Denis you keep all the crowns of all the reigns?" asked the prince. "Yes, Sire, and where could they be better guarded than with us? Who has most may have least."
