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. He is not stingy in His promotion and
rewarding, we just need to genuinely put all effort into working for Him.. 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?
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. 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 POINT
1. Father, help us to be faithful to the
end, so that we shall receive the crown of life as a good servantin Jesus name.
ACTION QUOTE: Remember, to enjoy your pay day of glory because the opposite is dangerous l
