Remember - Kingdom Reward

Thanks for checking out the anchor Faith.

Message podcast from st. Augustine Florida.

Now enjoyed this message. What if you have your Bibles

today turn over to Revelation chapter 22 Revelations chapter.

Revelation 22 · chapter mention

22. I was thinking back Wednesday

night when I wasn't in service and I was you know, having some

massive withdrawals Anybody have withdrawals like me on Wednesday

night, you're like, man, I'm not in church.

I'm like struggling right now. Now, you know that may sound

silly but you know, I love to come together.

I love it. I love and I understand that God

didn't leave me, I didn't go to hell because of it, right?

But at the end of the day, I love assembly, I love the

command. The Lord said do not forsake the

assembling of yourselves together and I love it and so,

but I I said, you know, probably an 18 years, we've probably only

not done to services at the end of the day only to so that's

pretty good track record across the board.

I mean, if every 18 years you only miss to, you know, your

your your together then man, we're doing something right now

is God in the assembly? Yes.

Yes. He is.

For anyone to think he's not, is a liar.

He is in the assembly because he is the head of the church.

Church, which are many members fitted and jointed together in

the same location. Hallelujah.

So he's definitely in the assembly and the anointing is

greater in the assembly, than in your own personal life.

Because he says, one can send a thousand to will send 10,000.

So, there's Anna multiplying effect of anointing in numbers,

so don't ever let the devil to deceive.

A view that you by yourselves. Good enough.

You by yourself is a sheep waiting to get eaten by a wolf

as what you really are, and you think that you've got it

together, but you need to come together because that's where

safety is. Let me just say it this way.

The father in this Parable, he will leave the 99.

The shepherd will leave the 99 and go van.

Think about this now, because we never preach this.

What does the shepherd see in the 99 that he's willing to

leavel? We always talk and focus on the

one. I'll look how I came and ran the

one down. Well, first of all, the one was

lost. I mean, it's not like the one

should be celebrated. Although we celebrate them once,

he brings them, that's where the celebration happens.

The celebration doesn't happen while they're lost the

celebration happens. When he gets them back to the,

the 99 and the 99 was able to be strong enough to say, go ahead

and find them. We only want to preach about the

one and not see the strengths in the 99 that the shepherd will

leave. The 99, is there only one wolf?

Are you want to hear this? I'm not going to preach it,

though. I'll just stay off at now.

I might start preaching it revelation. 22 verse 12.

Revelation 22:12

Jesus says this behold, I am coming quickly.

Now his clinic in your quickly or two different quick leaves,

but he is quickly coming. He said, behold, I am coming

quickly and my what, my, what my, what?

Come on, say it loud. My.

What you get, louder, I'll preach shorter.

My reward is with me to render to every man according to what

he has done. This is a New Testament

scripture that is in the Book of Revelation.

The last chapter And he's coming to give an award reward to those

that are doing something I said doing something, okay?

So just being in the house isn't enough, we've got to be doing,

how's business? All right, and he says I'm

coming quickly. My reward is with me.

So does Jesus have a reward to bring?

Are you expecting your reward? Most people are Only expecting

to just be in heaven when they die.

They're not ready for a reward, nor they were expecting one.

In fact, they would almost be considered arrogant or prideful

to think. God would have a reward for

them. They should just be thankful

that they're not going to hell. Yet Jesus says I'm coming

quickly and I have a reward with me to give to what how many men

every man to render to every man.

So as Believers we should have this for understanding, there's

a reward to gain and it's not just Heaven, it's not just

heaven. He has a reward so if he's

bringing a reward, how does he know who gets what?

Because he's going to render it to every man, how according,

which means, it's not the same reward, so it can't be heaven.

It can't be Heaven because is render to every man, according

to what he has done and what have you done to earn Heaven.

You not done anything to earn Heaven because by All rights,

when you call on the name of Jesus and became a new child of

God, a new creature in Christ. If you would have dropped dead,

right? Then you're going to be present

with the Lord and you've done nothing to earn heaven.

So there's something else in this life that we're doing that

God. Must be recording.

In order to render a reward, you receive rewards because of

something accomplished. Well, how many are doing the

Bible reading plan? And aren't you excited?

Because we're in the chronological, you get to go to

the New Testament, finally, right?

You get to get to the New Covenant, your life.

Praise God. Luke we're in Luke.

What that means? You just read malecha, which

means you just read this in Malachi chapter 3.

Malachi 3 · chapter mention

Look at this. How many you this kind of popped

in? And I'm going to have Amplified

classic cause that's the translation I'm reading this.

Says, then those who fear the lord talked often to one another

and the Lord, listened and heard it.

And a book of now notice this is not the book of life.

There's another book. I said there's another book.

And a book of remembrance was written before him of those who

reverenced and worship worshipfully fear the lord, and

who thought on his name and it shall be.

Mine says the Lord are scuse me and they shall be mine, says the

Lord of hosts in that day when I publicly recognized and openly

declare them to be my Jewels, my special possession, my peculiar

Treasure. I will spare them as a man,

spares his own son, who, what serves him?

So there comes a day that this book of remembrance, is going to

get opened. Now, Joe Psalms verse 56.

Verse 8 says, this is says, you have taken account of my misery

put my tears in your bottle, are they not in your book?

Now crime doesn't get you to heaven.

Even so crying and misery, does it put you in the Book of Life?

The Lamb's Book of Life is not obtained or you're not written

there because you cried out to God to, you know, remember all

the troubles you've had down here.

So this is obviously a different book yet when you go through

various trials and tribulations, and you are fearful of the Lord

and your call. On his name and any suffering

you're doing for his sake, they're going to be recorded in

a book of remembrance. There's nothing going on in your

life. God is Not documenting.

Now I said this a couple Services ago I don't remember

which one whether it was a Wednesday or Sunday, but it's

going to bear repeating at this point because not everybody was

in there. I often has a, you know, a

person who oversees individuals that there's this term

especially in the business world that is considered very negative

and very negative. And if you are in a position of

oversight and you seem to be doing Are are overseeing the

people in this capacity, you're considered - like, you don't

have good leadership and that is a micro manager.

Right people don't micromanage me like if you if you're an

overseer that's micromanaging then by all rights.

The the context is you don't trust them.

You're not giving them their ability to lead and to flourish

and allow their own gift to come out.

Well, the problem is God is a micromanager And I'm going to

show you that here in a second because even job new of a book

job said in the 19th, Chapter, verse 23 and 25, he says, oh,

that my words were written all that, they were recorded in a

book that with an iron stylist, and, and led, they were engraved

in the rock forever yet, as for me, I know that my redeemer

lives, man. Even before Jesus came.

They knew the Gamers coming. He said at last, he will take

his stand on the earth. He knew man.

If if how I am following and honoring, if they could just

write it down, I mean this is Joe who's being accused of his

best friends that he's got to have this gross sin in his life

for all this bad stuff to be happening to him and they're

just Railing at him constant. He's like man if only somebody

could have Accorded, how I was living my life.

Not like these guys say, But at the end of the day, I know my

redeemer lives and that in essence, he's going to give an

account. Of my life before others look

what it says in Matthew chapter 12 Jesus says this himself.

Matthew 12 · chapter mention

He says but I tell you that for every careless word that people

speak, they will give an account of it when On the day of

judgment. Now, some would say, wait a

minute. Now we're not destined for

judgment. Well, you are destined for the

Judgment seat of Christ. You are destined for that.

It's a reward ceremony. I said it's a reward ceremony

and it's not you go to heaven ceremony?

No, it's a book opening ceremony.

It's a record of your life. Verse 37, for by you.

Words, you will be what Justified and by your words you

will be and we're talking about Believers.

Now ultimately, we know this is the case with the great white

Throne judgment and the very last days, right?

That there's going to be judgment sent out to those

who've never called on the name of the Lord.

But Jesus himself, says, listen books are coming.

Books are coming and you're going to give an account for

every word, which tells us Jesus.

Is Matt micromanaging. Everything about your life right

now. How do we know this?

Look at Hebrews chapter 4. Now, this should get you

Hebrews 4 · chapter mention

excited. It shouldn't get you in pain or

worried or upset. I mean unless you doing stuff in

secret that you think since secret, which is just a lie,

because look what it says here in Hebrews 4:12, he stopped in

Hebrews 4:12

verse 12. But there's a verse 13 says, for

the word of God, is what living and active sharper than any

two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of Soul and

Spirit of both joints and Marrow.

That's the threefold nature of man and able to judge the

thoughts and intentions of the heart verse 13.

And there is no creature hidden from his sight.

But all things, how many things come on?

How many things? All things are open and laid

bare to the eyes of him with whom we have to do meaning

there's nothing going on in the planet that he's not seeing from

a faith perspective. I'm like thank God that

everything I'm doing for the Lord as not unnoticed.

It's not like I'll Stand before God one day and say he'll save

you know I Forgot you did that. See we understand God, forgets

our sin. He throws it into the sea of

forgetfulness. He removes our sin as far as the

East is from the west, but he is recording everything.

We're doing in faith, according to his word.

He's recording it all. And I'm so excited because

anything I'm doing when nobody else is watching.

When no one gives me a thank you.

Well, no, one even knows that I was intercede and stand and

believe in going through the trial and tribulation because I

came out not with a gloomy face but with a face of Joy, when I

was going through the worst trial of my life but everybody

thought I was having the greatest time of my life, he saw

it all. I said he saw it all and wants

so awesome. Is that his word is able to

judge my And so when we make this statement but God knows my

heart, you bet he does and he never gets it wrong.

Now you can lie to somebody about your intentions, but

you'll never ever lie to whom you going to have to deal with

about your intentions. Ever because he knows the

intentions of your heart. God is a recorder because he's

coming quickly and he has a reward for you.

Aren't you glad I'm telling you right now?

If I realized at this very moment that everything I was

doing was being recorded by God and if I could look at my life

in Christ, I say man I don't know that I'm really living for

real. I don't know that he's recording

things. Good.

I mean, maybe I'm not living as I should.

Well, you know what? I could repent.

Ask God to forgive me. Get that written off my books so

that I could get something different on the books because I

don't want God on that day. When he stands before me, and

the fire comes, the Bible says, will be tested with fire.

And when the fire comes, he said, if we've got any works,

that are wood, hay, and stubble, they'll be burned up, which

means I did it so that you could like me.

And man, are we not living in a generation of wanting to get

likes? So for every one, it says all I

appreciate you. You're so awesome.

I'm so thankful for you. There's nothing wrong with

saying that and I'm not saying you shouldn't give people that,

but if the intent of why I do it is so that I can hear that.

Then the Lord is say you've got your reward on Earth.

That's all you were trying to do get there like and did you get

it? Did they tell you?

They liked you did they tell you?

They appreciated you. Did they tell you how awesome

you were? You got it but it didn't

transfer. I said it didn't see.

We preach messages. You're not going to see.

U-Haul going to the funeral. Well, you won't see a physical

U-Haul, but there is a spiritual U-Haul.

I said there is a spiritual U-Haul of what you're doing in

Christ today by faith, according to his word and the intentions

of your heart to glorify him. It will make it to your grave

and out of your grave and out of judgment.

You have cry where he'll pull out a book and say, look what

came over from the natural. Not only did they see your

effort and acknowledge your effort but it made it over into

eternity and it's now been tried as gold and silver and it is

still here in remains and I've got my reward and I'm giving you

a reward as a result of what you did.

Not only did you get it in the natural.

Now some of us we receive the reward from the which is just

receiving something from someone, some rewards can be -

they can be persecuting us but all the while God Like I got

silver and gold laid up for you. I have a Crown of Glory, a crown

of righteousness for you because you withstood, they may not have

acknowledged, but there are times, they will acknowledge.

They will give Thanksgiving. They will tell you how much they

appreciate. All that you did in obedience to

God, although they didn't realize that's your heart motive

and that you're not asking them to thank you.

Although that effort as far as the world's concerned, some

would be considered worthy of thanks but you've done it for a

higher purpose and man he sees it.

Now let me tell you, there are things in the Bible that we read

and we think they're only a moment of time, but this is why

I encourage us to read the Bible cover-to-cover Genesis 1:1 to

Genesis 1:1

Revelations, 22, 21, 20 to 21. The reason that is is because it

gives context and God actually gives us a context.

Of the book of remembrance. In a particular natural Kingdom

that was on the earth and you read about it in the Book of

Esther. Remember in the Book of Esther

start in chapter 2 verse 23. It says this, then when the plot

was investigated Mordecai, found out a couple guys wanted to kill

the king who was Esther's husband, and when he found out

about this, he reported it says. And when the plot was

investigated and found it to be so that they were both hang on a

wooden gallo. And it was what written in the

book of Chronicles in the Kings present.

So, the King was there And rode it out.

It was in the page. Well, Mordecai was the guy who

discovered it and reported it and saved the King's life from

an attempted assassination. But the king didn't actually do

anything about it at the time. All of a sudden Mordecai has an

enemy show up that hates him cause he won't bow down at him.

And so he's decided that he's gonna kill this guy now.

What he doesn't know is not only is when he killed a guy and kill

all of his, you know, nation of people the Jewish people, he is

hit, the queen has found out about it.

She's in prayer and fasting. She goes to the king when not

called puts her own life on the line, for the nation, for an

ancient. And because he extends a scepter

and says come on, she throws a party for the Enemy.

So, that the enemy of Mordecai. Her uncle could come with her

husband, the king. Now, when he leaves that he's

like, I'm the only one that she embodied.

He's thinking, I got it, but he's so depressed.

When he leaves that first party for and the invited to come the

next day. Remember, is that because

Mordecai won't bow down? So they're like your built.

This Gallo in your backyard. Go ahead and tomorrow request of

the king too. To kill Mordecai on the galleys.

Like that's a great idea. I'm going to do it.

Then I'll go to the party right? Because I'm the greatest guy

ever. Well what does the Lord do?

The Lord causes the king to not to be able to sleep.

And we see in the sixth chapter of Esther verse 1.

It says during that night, the king could not sleep.

So he gave an order to bring the book of records the Chronicles

and they read it before the king.

And when they were reading it, when the king couldn't sleep, it

came across a section in the book of remembrance.

It says, there's a guy by the name Immortal cob and man, he

found out that there was an assassination on you.

We investigated it. It was so and we hung those guys

and the King says, what did we do for Mordecai?

What was his reward? And they're like King, you

didn't do anything. He says, well this can't be, we

must reward. He says, who's in the court.

Oh Heyman has showed up. Now, Heyman has showed up to

talk to the king and say I want you to give me more to kind

killing, but the King was so Sly.

And Haman was so prideful that it just met together and sew and

haman's pride and in the Kings real concern to reward.

Someone he says, what shall be done to the man who has honored

the king and what it Heyman think?

Is Honore more than me, which we know that's a lie.

Because he's not honored the king at all.

In fact, his asking of what would be done, reveals the heart

of Haman because he's like, get a robe.

That was on the king, get a donkey that the King has wrote

in essence, he saying, let that person out like, they're you,

that's haman's heart. I wish I was King.

I'll in fact, if Heyman would have kept a sending in power,

Make no mistake about it. The Book of Esther would have

read this and Heyman, says, assassinated the king and took

the throne. But the king said, this is a

great idea. Mordecai is the guy I want to

do. You're going to parade him

through the street and say these things.

And what does that tell us? It tells us it's New Testament

that the weapon formed against the church won't Prosper.

That God will take what the devil meant for bad and turn it

for good. Are you hearing me?

Because God will remember all that you have done my mama.

See Daniel says it this way, he said a river of fire was flowing

and coming out from before him. Daniel Seven, Ten thousands upon

thousands worse, Having him and a myriad upon married were

standing before him and the court convened and the books

were opened. Look what it says in

Revelations, 20. Now we know this way the end it

says this and I saw the dead and that's a great white Throne

judgment the Great and the small standing Before the Throne and

the books were opened. So there are some books guys not

only is there a book of remembrance but there's also the

next one which says and another book was opened which is The

Book of Life. So we have to name Ames.

We have the book of life, we have a book of remembrance but

then there's other books. Now, those books are the records

of every wrong done to the kingdom.

That if the blood of Jesus, If that name has not been

transferred into the book of life, then all of those books

are legal binding charges of which a righteous judge will

sentence. Those created beings humans into

Eternal damnation forever and it be rightly judged. and it says

in the dead were judged from the things which were written in the

books according Today, their deeds, we live in a time where

God wants to reward us and he's coming to give us a reward

because there's a book of remembrance everything you're

doing right now. God's writing it down,

everything you're doing, God knows whether you're in his will

or not. Let's look at this.

God wants to reward you according to your Works in

Christ. Meaning your faith in doing

God's will for your life now that you're a child of God.

Romans Chapter 2 Verse 6 says, who will render to each person?

Romans 2:6

Notice, you're not going to get skipped.

Nobody in this room. Nobody on planet.

Earth is getting skipped. Each person is going to be

rendered a reward according to his deeds, every one of us, look

what it says in Proverbs 2412 again a little insight on how

God is able to reward you through his book of remembrance.

If you say see, we do not know this, does he not consider Do

it, who weighs the heart. One translation says this says,

look, we didn't know about dressing and Essence.

We're trying to play ignorant like I didn't know, well sambo,

I mean II didn't know, I had to do that, look what he goes on.

And says, does he not consider who weighs the heart?

He knows whether you just can't go to God and play ignorant.

And does he not know and does he not know it who keeps your soul?

And he will not rent and will he not render to each man?

According to his work meaning that day we stand he'll know you

inside and out he will have documentation.

Of it all. Now, this is good for the

righteous when our hearts are pure and our minds are pure and

we just want to seek God with all the heart.

I'm like, wow there's a reward. I mean I will not be cheated out

of my reward. There will not be an injustice,

that will not come to Justice. My gosh, my king is so great,

but it also tells me don't think you're going to dupe the king.

Oh, don't think that he This stuff down here, don't really

matter. All that matters is that you

asked Jesus to come into your heart, so that when you die, you

go to heaven, that's all that matters.

No, that ain't all that matters. No, in essence, what you do is

you deprive your king, the pleasure.

Why would we as kids? And we have we been around our

own children and you want to reward them and they deprive you

the pleasure. When they disobey you're like,

well I can't reward your disobedience.

I'm the one that's not keeping you from this event, or from

having this or doing that. Look what you did, you've

deprived me the pleasure. And let me tell you you training

your kids wrong, if you reward them for their disobedience.

Because the Lord is not going to do that.

The Lord is rewarding us for our obedience to his word and

keeping it by faith. So he's going to judge us.

Look what it says here in Jeremiah 1710.

This is the Amplified classic. It says this, the Lord search.

He said I the Lord search the mind.

I try the heart even to give to every man, according to his ways

according to the fruit of his doing.

I mean this is what I love about my king so much.

That's what I love about my savior.

Jesus is that This the king, the righteous one and the spirit of

God, that's within me and moves around, on the planet is going

into my innermost being my heart, my thinking, my soul

round and is judging every part of my motive, why I do what I do

when I do what I do for what purpose that I do it.

And when they say, man, they're doing it for me.

They're writing it down and they're like not only will they

reap a benefit now because our faith can pull things in today

and we can walk in the blessings of God now, but it also will

then carry over Into eternity to wear.

When the king comes and begins to hand out rewards.

He says because you did it this way while you were here

naturally. Separated from me, where we

didn't look at each other face-to-face.

But by my spirit, you did my bidding, you obeyed my word,

here's your reward. Make no mistake about it.

God is not a respecter of person.

What that means is is God, doesn't respect.

One of us more than the other but he will reward us

differently. Everyone of us has the ability

to believe God to live righteous to live, holy to live Sanctified

to live with a pure motive to live selflessly to live in the

love of God to believe God, nobody can hinder that But if

you're not doing that, make no mistake, the rewards will not be

the same. On that day, when he publicly

announces us and declares that we are his special ones.

What we've done here, are either going to burn up and be gone

because that's all we got. Or we're going to have something

that carries over into eternity, where the crown of

righteousness, Crown of Glory, things are fashion for us,

because we are the King of Kings.

We are a king of the king. We will cast our crowns before

the Lord. But just because you cast your

crowned up me, he collects it, you never get to wear it.

We acknowledge that. Yes, you're the great king.

I mean at the end of the day, you're the ruler of everything

but he's also says that's right. And I calls you to rule and for

you to Reign and I'm the king of kings.

So when you cast a crown before the Lord, it's not because

you're releasing your kingship. Are you hearing me?

The last scripture today is Psalm 62 12.

I hope I'm encouraging to today that man, we have a God that

doesn't forget a God. That remembers what I'm saying

is, is you should never take the thought, you know, living for

God. What's the big deal?

It's a big deal. You know, how many people right

now, naturally, or putting money away and 401, K's in some type

of retirement? They're doing why?

Cuz when they finally quit working, they can retire.

And receive a reward, they put it into stocks, they do

Investments for what a reward so that they have more than what

they currently have. So they have a sustainable, not

just sustainable but a better life In fact, we act like people

are foolish if they're not thinking about their retirement

yet. Many Believers have no context

of the book of remembrance They all think through wishful

thinking and fantasy that all of a sudden we're going to be out

of our bodies be up in heaven. We're all going to have the

exact same house like God is going to have cooker Cuddy, cut

her homes. Like some of these neighborhoods

we going to, you know, I'm saying, one style.

They just kind of move the windows around.

Right. There's only about three models

and because God is not a respecter of person, he's gonna

have one model where I and we're all going to be satisfied with

this. He's too creative to have the

same thing. It's just not going to happen.

No. He's going to reward us

according to our faithfulness. Because we love him so much and

because we, he's like you listen.

The king is like you can't out, give me, you cannot do it.

I mean, the more you continue to lay down your life to do, my

will for your life, in this natural now, man.

It has great dividends. In the life to come and guys we

still have to go through a millennial reign of Christ here.

How does God determine who judges the cities?

What is preordained? It can be preordained by the

fact of, he knows who's going to do the work necessary to get the

assignment. Not because whether you did it

work, or not, it doesn't matter. You're going.

See people take predestination as if I don't have time, I

didn't do nothing. I mean, I laid around.

I was lazy. I just, you know, set around.

I asked you to come to my heart when I was just a little kid,

but I never lived for my live for the world, you know?

But I lied, I went to heaven and he gave me 15 cities, you cannot

find that scripture that It's not true.

Grace. Empowered us to live a life of

Faith. So strong.

In fact, when faith is in operation, it activates the

grace in our life so that we can do the assignment God has for

us. And then God rewards us.

I mean, listen, I agree. If heaven was all, we got,

that'd be pretty awesome but it's not.

I mean, it's like God is let me try to get me to get you to

understand like one of those commercials but there's more As

if this dealing good enough but there's more and if you actually

read the Bible you realize but there's more.

Because how do you out give a giving God?

I mean we're at like God sitting upon his throne and kind of has

this attitude you just ought to be glad I gave you my blood.

Because that's how we all treat our own kids we'll just be

thankful. We got a roof over your head.

just be thankful because you have a roof over your head, you

should be thankful because you have a roof, but there's more

Because there's food on the table, but there's more, there's

clothes for you but there's more if you fall I'll pick you up but

there's more I'll have trained you but there's more I'm gonna

help invest in your next life and where you're going and what

you're doing, I mean there's more.

I mean seriously, it's not just because they have a roof over

their head. And do you think you can outgive

God? And all of a sudden, now, it's

prideful for your kids to expect that you would help them.

I mean, most of you is parents be like, son, why didn't you

call me when you fail or whatever?

Why don't you ask? Well, you just gave us a roof

over our head. That's good enough.

You be like you better shut up and get up in this house.

And let me teach y'all something because I mean, it's more than

just a house people. That's how you act in your

natural. How much more our heavenly

father Psalm 62, 12 says, also To You.

O, Lord, belonging mercy and loving-kindness for you render

to every man according to his work.

I'm so glad that he's merciful that he has loving kindness,

that he is taking time, he has in his Heaven realm, those, not

himself, but those who are ever right?

Trevor and he's got your name. Trevor stand up to everybody

knows who I'm talking about the way.

I'm not talking behind his back. I'm talking to his face Trevor.

This is how he treated his wife and why he did that.

This is how he treated his coworker and why he did that.

This is how he gave in the offering.

This is how he's recording at all.

Everything every bit of it, Trevor.

Was so full of the flesh this day.

But he didn't yield instead, he crucified it.

There's a reward for that. Not an action.

Nothing. Do I believe that he said,

Trevor was full of the Flesh and acted on it today, but then all

of a sudden when we got up there you can't find that one.

Why? Because Trevor repented the next

day or five hours later and the blood came in and wrote that one

out. Come on.

Are you hearing me? But there are those, you know

again he did it for his own, Merit did it for his own.

Merit did it for his own Merit. When the fire comes, it burns

up. I'm just using one, I could pick

out anybody's name right here. Your name.

You have a book. Every person.

Ever Birth has a book. It's an autobiography.

And you're not writing it angels are riding on your behalf in

heaven. God before you ever came into

your mother's womb, the psalmist says before.

It one day of my life, was you already wrote out all the days

of my life. He has a printed copy of what

your life should be. But the angels are recording

your life. As it is, And God is going to

match those books up. Then he'll pull out the book of

remembrance that in, it's going to even have tears in a bottle

of your troubles and trials. And when you cried out to God

and stayed in faith and believed him to vindicate you and you

didn't defend yourself. You said.

Vengeance is mine. Thus saith the Lord.

I will repay. I'm not going to defend myself.

That doesn't mean they're in times.

You have to say things. Paul said, well if we don't

boast In the Flesh, I'm gonna go ahead and go there.

I mean, if that's what you're looking for, if you want a job

description of how much I've laid out, I've laid out way more

than half the people you trying to call apostles I mean if you

want to go there, I'll give you my resume.

I've been in Trials, more often. I've been Shipwrecked left for

dead. I've done more than all these

people that you putting on a pedestal and honoring because

only reason, they're not correcting you and I am.

I mean that really just summarizes his whole

description. I only have to do this because I

actually love you and correct you they come and tell you stuff

that make you feel good in order to get a following.

So, if we want to compare lives, what if they actually done?

But most of the time it is. I'm not talking about it.

God will vindicate me? He'll do it.

I'll leave room for the Lord to show.

Mike it. Why?

Because he's recording it anyway.

And don't think anyone who's back biting you who's running

off at behind your back, talking about you and saying things

about you and you find out that someone so is saying so on.

So that all of a sudden, you don't need it.

God's got it written down. And they'll come a time that if

the blood is not there, it is show up because he's righteous

and he's just and he'll know. Well So April found out that

these girls in the youth ministry are talking about her

all the time and instead of correcting them she just let it

go and began to pray and intercede for them.

I remember that you're going to get a reward.

What a great God we have. And guess what?

This reward that he's bringing moss.

Cannot eat, Russ cannot destroy. Thieves cannot steal.

No, it can't be at loss. It is guaranteed.

Is it worth living for God? Sacrificing for God, putting

down your flesh for God? Walking In Love for God, is it

worth walking in love with a brother?

Is it worth doing? Are you bet it is?

Cuz the king is coming. He's coming quickly and he has a

reward for you. because when he opens up the book of life, he

says Simon You're in. Now let's find out what you've

done and pull out the book of remembrance.

Let's bring your reward. Oh what a day that would be now,

you know how we all going to be? He's going to give us all those

rewards are going to be like Lord.

You can keep them but Lord's like I can but I'm giving them

to you. I'm giving them to you.

How do we know this is true? Again?

Documented history, the Queen of Sheba came with more gifts than

King Solomon ever had in his life blew him.

Oh, I mean, just more stuff than he had ever received from anyone

else, but she's blown away at his kingdom realm.

And he gave her more than she brought him when she left

because you cannot out give the king.
