The Lord has made proclamation to the ends of the earth: “Say to Daughter Zion, ‘See, your Savior comes! See, his reward is with him, and his recompense accompanies him.’ ”  They will be called the Holy People, the Redeemed of the Lord ; and you will be called Sought After, the City No Longer Deserted. Isaiah 62:11‭-‬12 NIV

There is usually a pay day for every labourer when everyone is duly rewarded for the service rendered. Likewise, everyone of us shall appear before the judgment throne of God both to give account of our stewardship on earth and receive our rewards.

No matter how long it seems to have taken the Lord to return, the truth is that He will surely come back. Once He returns every labour and service shall cease and everyone shall be called to render account of their service to Him.

Only those who despised every shame, ignored every criticism, endured every hardship and faithfully carried out the responsibility assigned them by the Lord shall be justly rewarded and recompensed by the Lord with everlasting crown and joy forever more.

Also, those who because of earthly pleasure, self esteem, self honour, personal comfort, selfish interests and ambitions abandoned the service of God shall also be refused entrance into eternal life with Jesus.

The truth is this, whatever you do to Jesus and for Jesus now that you are alive shall be rewarded. May the Lord help you to take heed to yourself and all that you do so that your reward will not be among the slothful and the wicked in the outer darkness where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth. Good morning and do have a restful weekend.

Your brother,
