How to guarantee a sure reward!

Those who practice deception in order to hurt or destroy others are practicing a form of wickedness. Yet, in today’s society, much of business is done in a deceptive manner. How many times have businesses promised something, only to deliver sub-par materials or service. Others have agreed to provide a specific service, and after they get the money from the client, they deliver only 40-60 percent, and then disappear. Surely the judgement of God will come upon the wicked for their lies and deceptions. Conversely, the righteous deliver what they promise. God promises to the righteous that they will reap a sure reward because they work and serve with integrity. Always remember that integrity pays off in the end.

Proverbs 11:18 – The wicked man does deceptive work, but he who sows righteousness will have a sure reward.

Are you generous?

God is more generous that we will ever know. He is our model of generosity. Stinginess and selfishness are not Godly qualities. God loves the cheerful giver.  Note that it says a “cheerful” giver. Give with joy, knowing that you are pleasing the heart of God. There are those that give to be seen by men. God will not honor this kind of giving.  When you bless someone else, make sure that you do it for the right reasons. God will make sure that the truly generous will prosper. It’s His promise. Proverbs 11:23 says: “There is one who scatters, yet increases more;”

Proverbs 11:25 – The generous will prosper; those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed.
