Read Joshua chapter 19 VERSE: Joshua 19:49–When they had finished dividing the land into its allotted portions, the Israelites gave Joshua son of Nun an inheritance among them. TRUTH: Joshua and Caleb, the two men who remained faithful to God and trusted in God throughout the entire time of coming from Egypt until the Promised land, were both given an inheritance along with the rest of the tribes. The people honored their commitment to God and all that both of these men had done for them. God will take care of the needs of those people who are serving Him. God is not a debtor and He will never allow…

Read Luke chapter 17 VERSE: Luke 17:10–“So you also, when you have done everything you were told to do, should say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.'” TRUTH: Jesus, speaking here, indicates how we as servants of His should respond when we have been obedient. We shouldn’t expect a huge party and accolades for doing the things that we are supposed to do. A servant wouldn’t expect to be rewarded for simply doing his duty. So, as servants and followers of Jesus Christ, we obey and serve Him because we love Him, not because of what He will do for us or give us. Are we…

Read 2 John VERSE: 2 John 8–Watch out that you do not lose what we have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully. TRUTH: Those deceivers mentioned in the pervious verse are hard at work and if we are not careful and watching, we will lose focus and get distracted. God has a plan and a purpose for us and we must be careful that we are focused on Him and His plan or else we will miss out on all the rewards and blessings that He has in store for us. Do we want to be fully rewarded in all that God has planned and purposed for…

VERSE: Numbers 31:53–Each soldier had taken plunder for himself. TRUTH: The Lord had commanded them to go to battle against the Midianites and then after they were successful, the Lord allowed them to each take part of the plunder for themselves. Each one who had been obedient also shared in the reward. As we are obedient to what God has for us, we can know that God will take care of us afterward as well. He is faithful to us! RESPONSE: Father, thank You for remembering each and every one of those who obeyed You, just as You remember me when I obey You. I will seek to follow You,…

VERSE: 2 Chronicles 15:7–But as for you, be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded. TRUTH: Asa was a new king and God sent the prophet Azariah to speak words of encouragement to him. God wanted Asa to know that God wanted him to be strong, not give up, and know that the work we do will be rewarded. For us, God wants us to know that He sees the work that we do and our commitment to Him and He will reward us for our faithfulness. RESPONSE: Father, You are always faithful to Your commitments. You see the work that I do and my…
