Heb 11:6
”For he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”
Today,as we end our teaching on having a business mindset, I want you to be rest assured that God is a great rewarder and there is nothing that you do in the kingdom of God that goes unnoticed or unrewarded.
The bible says, ”God is not unjust to forget your labour of love.”(Heb 6:10) He is not a hardtaskmaster. He rewards both in this life and in the life to come.
- He rewards diligence.
Our key scripture says he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.Diligence means careful and consistent work or effort. That means you’ve got to keep at it,even though men may not recoqnize or appreciate it.Sooner than later God will reward you more than you can carry. - He rewards faithfulness and loyalty.
These are rare virtues in our world today. The Bible says, “many a man claim to have unfailing love but a faithful man who can find”. (Prov 20:6)However, in this is your great reward. ”To the faithful God always shows himself faithful.” (Psalm 18:25) - He rewards sacrifice.
One day Peter questioned Jesus about his reward for leaving everything to follow him.Jesus’ answer was forthright; get ready for a hundredfold blessing in this life and in the life to come.(Matt 19:29). Thats a good business deal that does not fail. I am a living testimony to that fact.
Dear friend,I pray that every sacrifice you have made in the kingdom of God begins to yield a thousand times more for you this season. May the Lord repay you for what have done.
Like Ruth, may you be fully rewarded by the Lord under whose wings you have come to seek shelter. (Ruth 2:12)
Get ready, the great rewarder is about to surprise you.
