GOD’S REWARD FOR THE RIGHTEOUS SATURDAY APRIL 22
TEXT: MATHEW 19:27-30
Key Verse: “For God is not unrighteous to forget your works and labour of love, which you have showed toward his name in that you have ministered to the saints and do minister” Hebrews 6:10
God rewards the good deeds done by His righteous children. It will be unrighteousness on the part of God not to reward the works of righteousness done by His righteous and faithful children. Therefore believers should not be weary in well doing, for they shall be rewarded in due time, Galatians 6:7-10. Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
God rewards the righteous both in this life and in the life to come. In answer to Peter’s inquiry, Jesus said that believers who have forsaken anything (houses, brothers or sisters, father or mother, wife, children or lands) for His name’s sake, shall receive faithfully from God. God is not unrighteous to forget our work and labour of love which we have showed toward His name, in ministering to the saints and attending to the work of the gospel.
The believer’s reward is not only in the present blessing material things. There is the reward of eternal life which the Lord has promised to all those who believe in His name, and follow Him faithfully to the end. This should encourage every believer to persevere in the faith and service of Christ unto the end. Even when we die physically in Christ, we will rise up again at the Rapture to live forever with the Lord, Therefore, let us persevere earnestly in the hope of eternal life, heeding the Lord’s warning that many who are first shall be last and the last first. We are to persevere in the truth in righteousness and holiness, and in laboring for the gospel, knowing that God cannot fail.
Thought for the day: Thank God my labour is not in vain in the Lord.
Song for the day: Until I reach my home (2x), I will never never stop my journey half way….
Bible reading for the day: 2 Samuel 4-6; Luke 18:18-43

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA* Int'l Director (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018 _TOPIC:_ *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER* TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
