Will your present labour warns you worthwhile rewards at the end of time?

Will your present labour earn you worthwhile rewards at the end of time.

2 Corinthians  5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

It is very very important that you made adequate preparation to live with God in heaven. 

This you do by being biblically saved and sanctified and walking with Him in daily biblical holiness lifestyle all through your lifetime.

But then as a Bible believing believer and a faithful follower of Christ, you should do more than just making heaven at the end of your life.

You should labour to advance Christ kingdom on earth, to earn you worthwhile eternal rewards.

1 Peter  1:4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,

Always remember, you are labourers together with God.

1 Corinthians  3:8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.  3:9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.

But then pause and sincerely examine yourself. Are you labouring at all,  to advance the kingdom of Christ?

Will your present labour earn you worthwhile rewards in heaven or will they be burnt? 

1 Corinthians  3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.  3:12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;  3:13 Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is.  3:14 If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.  3:15 If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

If you are presently engaged in fruitful works, continue to persevere despite opposition and persecutions.

1 Corinthians  15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

Fruitful works approved by Christ will earn you indescribable eternal rewards.

Colossians  3:23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;  3:24 Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.

But labouring in what Christ does not approve will earn you nothing, even, if it does not disqualifies you from making heaven.

Galatians  6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.  6:8 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.

Fruitful works will be rewarded and unfruitful works shall be rejected and can even hinder eternity with God.

Matthew  7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.  7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?  7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Ephesians  6:8 Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.

Endeavor to be engaged in fruitful works approved by Christ to advance His kingdom on earth and your rewards will be enviable at the end of time.

Revelation  22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

Some examples of such works are :

Pulling sinners out of hell, not just members of your assembly.

Jude  1:22 And of some have compassion, making a difference:  1:23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

Turning the wicked to righteous standard of God.

Daniel  12:3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

Winning souls for Christ.

Proverbs  11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.

Remember, after the imminent rapture, we shall all stand before the judgement seat of Christ to receive our rewards of faithful, fruitful labour of love while on earth.

2 Corinthians  5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

Let us pray.

Bishop Peter Babalola
