My Reward

 November 17 – My reward – Rev 22:12

 

Vs 12 - Jesus then gives four exhortations.  First, look, be watchful.  Be alert.  Keep your eyes open.  Don’t be caught unawares.  Next he says again that he is coming soon.  He wants us to be aware.  At any time he could come back.  You have to live ready.  Don’t get caught up in the things of the world.  Keep your eyes on the skies.  As the old song says, “Your redemption draws nigh. 

     He then says he had a reward coming with Him.  He plans to reward and keep his promises.  Whatever Jesus said he will do, he will do.  The last thing to know is that the Lord will reward each person according to what they have done.  So the reality is that what we do does matter.  We are called to a life of faithfulness ands obedience.  Four powerful promises and realties found in this verse.
