Revelation 22:12(KJV)
And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with
me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
The truth is, in everything that we do there is a pay day or
should I say, there is a reward. There a
reward of service and the parameter is based on his right judgment. It is
usually given to motivate the good effort put into every labour, so this means there
is a blessing attached to every good work done in this kingdom and there is
also a reward attached to every wrong doings. In the world that we live in,
people tend to do eye-service and still hope to be rewarded appropriately, but
from our text of today, we can see that God rewards according to his/her work.
GOD IS THE MASTER REWARDER, so we should crave to be rewarded by Him. He is not
stingy in His promotion and rewarding, we just need to genuinely put all effort
into working for Him, because I tell you, your reward is coming soon and in a
big way. He does not pay half salary or underpay your efforts rather he settles
in full package according to our life work with extra pay.
The question now is, whose kingdom are you working and
putting all your efforts for here on earth? Friends, be glad if He sent and
called you, he can pay you very well. We
should have it at the back of our minds that our name is on His payroll and it
is a great privilege to be paid by the Lord. Remember, His payment is beyond physical
cash and it is even beyond what you can imagine. Psalm
68:19- Blessed be the Lord who daily loadeth us with benefits; even the God of
our salvation. Amazingly, he does not just pay salary but he also adds
all the benefits and awards of service because daily he loads us with benefits
as his goodness continues to follow us in season and out of season. Remember,
even when we have gone astray, the mercy of God stands for us to reconcile us
back to Jesus Christ.1 Corinthians 15:58 (NIV) - Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move
you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you
know that your labour in the Lord is not in vain. I pray God will help you, in Jesus name.
PRAYER POINTS:
1. Father, help us to be faithful to the
end, so that we shall receive the crown of life as a good servant in Jesus
name.
2. Oh Lord, may we not be cut short no
matter the pressure because of the glory ahead in Jesus name.
ACTION QUOTE: Remember, to enjoy the glory of the award because the opposite is shameful
