6 Ways God Rewards Faithfulness
I repeatedly hear Christians claim that God’s blessings as well as rewards bring goose egg to do amongst our efforts.
It’s truthful that God saves us apart from whatsoever endeavour nosotros make. But Scripture makes it clear that believers volition endure rewarded according to our efforts:
1. Our priorities, choices, as well as efforts create upwards one's require heed our heavenly treasure (Matthew 6:19-20; 1 Corinthians 3:11-15; Revelation 14:13; 1 Timothy 5:24-25).
2. If we’re faithful amongst pocket-size responsibilities, God promises to bless us amongst greater ones (Matthew 25:23).
3. Tabitha was noted equally a adult woman of practiced deeds (Acts 9:36-41), as well as widows could non have help from the church building unless they were known for practiced deeds as well as integrity (1 Timothy 5:9-10).
4. Church leadership is a vantage for godly living (1 Timothy 3:1-13).
5. Those persecuted or martyred for the gospel have swell rewards (Matthew 5:11-12; Hebrews 11:37-40).
6. There are especial earthly as well as heavenly rewards for those who sacrifice for the gospel (Mark 10:29-30) as well as those who help others spread the gospel (Matthew 10:41).
