GOD REWARDS SERVICE
MAIN TEXT:Romans 2:6 – God “will repay each person according to what they have done.”
1 Corinthians 15:58 – 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 labor in the Lord is not in vain.
Our lives are filled with many choices of how to spend our time, energy, and resources. The numerous rewards of serving God far outweigh the consequences. Let them motivate you to keep going — Charles R. Swindoll.
Ephesians gives us another perspective on the rewards of work. In speaking to slaves, it says, “Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people, because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good they do, whether they are slave or free” (Ephesians 6:7-8). The Greek verb translated here as “reward” literally means “receive.” The context shows that we will receive good things from the Lord if we do good work.
DON’T BE WEARY, A GOOD SERVICE BRINGS DIVINE BLESSINGS
PRAYER: O Lord God, grant the grace to serve faithfully and dedicated in every season in Jesus’ name Amen.
