Mobile Daily Devotional with Pst. Oluboye Emmanuel Week 35, Day 1: Sunday, 27th August 2023. TOPIC: GOD, OUR GREATEST REWARD. Focus Rightly (1)

“22. And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth,

23. That I will not take from a thread even to a shoe latchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:

Welcome to the last week of August. We will be considering the Topic, “God Our Greatest Reward”. It’s a wonder many of us are fervent in the service of God but have our gaze fixed wrongly for our reward. Yes, a labourer is worthy of his wages but can’t determine where His wages is coming from. Most times God do send us on an errand to whom we are to serve but He never lead us to expect reward from such persons.

Abraham, God’s Servant, was privileged to save a whole nation from the hands of it’s capture while on the rescue of His nephew. He recovers all the spoils back from the enemy without taken any of them. Why? Because he believe he’s reward is not from man but from God the Almighty. He had his focus placed rightly. He told the King I won’t take anything from what belongs to you so you won’t make a claim, you made me rich. The next Chapter, God was so pleased to declare to Abraham, I am you Exceeding Great Reward.

Beloved, man can only give you gifts and not reward. Yes, so recognize what God has Blessed you with from their lives and show gratitude, but God still have a better reward for you. It’s time to put your trust in the God that rewards and not men that give gifts. When you focus on men too much you loose God. God is our Exceeding Great reward not man. Make God the focus.

Good Day and God bless you.

Happy Birthday to all celebrants and Happy Wedding Anniversary to those celebrating today.
