Almighty God is a rewarder. He acknowledges and responds to faith and obedience. Hebrews 11:6 says: “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” A reward is: “something that is given in return for good behavior or service; a recompense; an award.” God rewards those that diligently seek Him in many ways, not only in this lifetime, but also in eternity. Hebrews 10:35 says: “So don’t lose your bold, courageous faith, for you are destined for a great reward” Jesus taught in the parable of the talents that those who are faithful will be rewarded with greater authority, influence and joy: Matthew 25:23 ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.” Don’t ever let the enemy steal your faithfulness. It will be rewarded. Galations 6:9 says: “Let us not grow weary or become discouraged in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap, if we do not give in.” God is pleased with the faithful. Remember, you are destined for a great reward, so stand today with bold, courageous faith. He sees your faithfulness!
It’s time for your soul to be refreshed!
One of the more prominent attacks that the enemy launches against us is the attack against our faith and confidence in God and His word. If he can get us out of faith and confidence, we lose our boldness. This is why it is so vital that we connect with God every day. When we call upon God, and in some cases, cry out to God, He hears us, and His Spirit and His word reassures us that He is with us. He never leaves nor forsakes us. King David said this in Psalm 138:3: “In the day when I cried out, You answered me, and made me bold with strength in my soul”. He knew that his strength came from God. When He cried out to God, He would receive boldness and strength in his soul. When we go through difficulties in life, we need boldness and strength in our souls. We cannot effectively fight if we are defeated on the inside. Today, cry out to God. He promises that He hears his children. By His Spirit and His word, He will restore your faith, boldness and confidence, and renew your strength on the inside. Your soul will be refreshed and encouraged so that you can finish strong!
