TOPIC: GOD, OUR GREATEST REWARD. He Is The Rewarder. (3)
MEMORY VERSE:
Genesis 15:1.
“1. After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.”
BIBLE READING:
Hebrews 11:6.
“6. … for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and That He Is A Rewarder Of Them That Diligently Seek Him.
We serve a God who never owes anyone their rewards. When we talk about reward, it’s not specifically reward for good deeds alone, He also rewards for bad deeds. He gives rewards accordingly without mixing it up. The reward of God usually comes at the right time (unexpectedly). Most times we look confuse if God ever saw what we are going through, how men treats us in the time of needs compare to how we had attended to people when they are in need. This is the reason why He is the great rewarder who diligently rewards those who seek Him at the appointed time.
What you do to everyone around has a reward in due time. How you relate, help, pray and contributed to other’s life all have a reward system waiting for you. When we diligently obey God’s instructions according to Matthew 25 about giving, He will release the appropriate reward for it. Mistakes we make is to expect the same people to reward us, only God can reward us not those we helped or bless. Let me say it this way, God only used you as a helper (or rewarder) to those people so, He will use someone else’s as a reward to you too. When we diligently do the will of God, our reward is from Him but when we do it for men to see and commend us we only receive the gift and praise of men without God’s reward. Your commitment to the things of God is not a waste but an investment, keep investing, the reward is on the way.
Good Day and God bless you.
