God Sees And Rewards
TOPIC: GOD SEES AND REWARDS
READ ESTHER 6:1-14
MEMORISE: God is not unjust; He will not forget your work and the love you have shown Him as you have helped His people and continue to help them. (Hebrews 6:10)
Message
Once upon a time, there was a man of Jewish extraction living in exile in a city called Shushan. As a slave, and being a gateman, he had no option than to stay within the confinement of the assignment given to him in the palace of the Persian King Ahasuerus.
Topmost on his priority list was that even in a strange land of enslavement, he wouldn't forget the legacy bequeathed to him, hence, his refusal to bow down or pay obeisance to anyone, the influential officer Haman inclusive, except YAHWEH, the true Living God. The man's name is Mordecai. On duty one day, he learnt of a plot to assassinate the king. Because of his loyalty, he unmasked the plan, thereby saving the king's life, and saving the whole nation from great embarrassment (Esther 2:21-22). Obviously, Mordecai didn't do that good work with the
expectation of being rewarded in any form, but unknown to him, his good deed was recorded and documented.
It is against God and godliness to know good but not do it accordingly (James 4:17). Do not hesitate to do good to others because God takes note of such little details. Mordecai did this not for self-glory, and because God has not stopped working, there came his night of remembrance when the king could not sleep. The following morning, he became a man of recognition and honour throughout the city of Shushan. The miracle was too timely (v. 1).
Do whatever good that occurs to you. Rest in knowing God who sees all things; He will never forget your acts of service, for in due time you will surely be rewarded (Gal 6:9; 2 Thess 3:13).
PRAYER POINTS:
1. Lord, help me to do the right things at the right times with the right motives that I'll be remember for in life and in You.
2. God, let the grace of giving be greatly manifested in the life of every believer.
3. God, let the gifts and fruit of the Holy Spirit be manifested in the life of every believer.
