Have you ever thought about what type of rewards you are going to receive in heaven? When we stand before the judgment seat of Christ, we will be evaluated on the basis of what we’ve received—that is, the truth God has made available to us—and what we’ve done with the opportunities we were given.
Furthermore, some specific actions and attitudes will result in special acknowledgment. For instance, Matthew’s gospel says there is a great reward stored up in heaven for those who are insulted and persecuted for Jesus’ sake (Matthew 5:11-12). Elsewhere, the Lord tells us that acts of kindness done for His followers will be noted and rewarded (Matthew 25:40). Even a cup of water given to a thirsty person will not be overlooked on judgment day (Matthew 10:42). Other actions that draw the Father’s special attention are love directed toward enemies and lending without expectation of repayment. These behaviors will bring great reward and the designation “sons of the Most High” (Luke 6:35).
Sometimes others seem to prosper and reap a great harvest without even noticing how we prepared the soil. Yet God assures us that neither the one who plants nor the one who waters will be overlooked (1 Corinthians 3:8). The Lord sees each detail, and everything done for His sake will be rewarded.
BIBLE IN A YEAR: 1 Samuel 15-16
THOUGHT FOR TODAY: The Lord sees and rewards each act of obedience, no matter how small.
