The reward of faithful service in the Kingdom of God

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 2 minutes
Dear friends, you are welcome to our daily word for spiritual strength. I hope you are enjoying these daily encouragements from the word of God. Today I want to emphasise the reward of faithful service in the Kingdom of God. One of the rewards of faithful service in the Kingdom of God is prosperity. The Bible says God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him (Hebrew 11: 6). Jesus also said those who seek first the Kingdom of God and its righteousness will be rewarded with the necessities of life. Our God is a God who sees in secret and who rewards us openly, so others can see it. God will never forget your work and the labour of love you showed towards His Name (Hebrew 6:10). If you mind God’s business, He will mind your business (Matthew 6:33). His business is to seek and save that which is lost, to spread the values and influence of His Kingdom through the earth. It is profitable to put God and His business first in our lives, because that is one of the sure ways to a prosperous life. Prosperity in the Kingdom of God is not just a function of hard work, planning, strategies and prayer. Prosperity is also a reward for kingdom service. God will make a difference between those who serve Him and those who do not (Malachi 3:14-18). If you desire a prosperous life, please take some time today and check your dedication to kingdom service as you meditate on the following Scriptures: Exodus 23:25–26; Hebrews 6:10; 11:6; Matthew 6:4; 6:33. Remember, 
 There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for Christ’s sake, and the gospel’s, but he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life (Mark 10: 30-31).
 May God bless your bread and your water as you continue to serve Him with your strength! See you tomorrow. Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

When one has such attitude towards life he will have his or her reward from the Lord. Such a person will be blessed and exalted by God.

    God does not come into our lives without being asked. Praying means to invite God to come and help us. It is a realization of the fact that I am weak and there is One Who is stronger than me, Who loves me and cares for me. Prayer is an invitation to the One Who is stronger than me and my circumstances.Do you remember Jairus? We read about him in Mark (5:22-23). He had sent his people to Jesus to invite Him to his house, because his daughter was on the verge of death.
