The real reward - Gospel message of God's word




19 If only for this life we ​​have hope in Christ, we are of all men most pitiable. - 1 Corinthians 15:19


The word of God revealed to us by the Blessed Apostle Paul makes a very interesting teaching. She is telling us that if any of us expects to receive from God or the Lord Jesus something or reward only here in this world we men and women who think so are most worthy of pity, pity, compassion because our Faith is totally useless. We are cultivating a faith that will not have no use for so we die all our faith and hope will die with us. That's what the word of God is teaching us.


That word may seem obvious, but our understanding and our human understanding are keen to go over it and insist on in our hearts that what we expect from God the Father, the Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit of God is that Trinity always give us a wonderful health, a family very happy and blessed, many material goods and a great prosperity. It is clear that the Lord gives it all to those who follow. When we are next to Him in all that is given in addition. Is given as a small gift because the Lord knows very well how important it is for an abundant life here in this world.


The Word is guiding us to not put our faith and our hope only on earthly things. We do not know the thoughts that our Almighty God has for our lives. He is the one who knows everything and everyone. If we look better we can see that this is exactly what happened in the life of Job


Job was a blessed man. We all already know his story and we all also know that he had many possessions, properties and a very blessed family. Now! That all he had in one day. On the next day he no longer had anything like that.


Although Job lost everything: goods, money, pets, family and health itself. He has not lost what was stored in his heart: faith in God. We're not talking about the faith he had in the property. Not the faith he had placed the children or his wife, not the faith he had in business and in his endeavors, not the faith he had placed on the health of his body, but he had faith in God alone. It was this faith, the true faith that even in the midst of severe trials and hardships left in his heart the certainty that, as did everything the Lord stood beside him. This is a giant mystery. This is so wonderful that we can only have access, even though we can only understand a small part, just by faith in God. So the Word of God guides us that without faith it is impossible to please God.


We do not want to lose our property. We do not want to lose our loved ones. We do not want to lose our family. We do not want to lose our health. But, unfortunately, not by the will of God, but because we live in a world where, unfortunately, all we see and what we have is fleeting. So, unfortunately, we risk losing one day our possessions, our families, our children, our wife, our husband, our health ... And other things.


It is precisely this that our God wants to warn us: we should not have supported a faith in what is transitory, because if we do so, inevitably run the risk of staying with nothing when it is passing through.


As we walk with God, the Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit of God here in this world, of course we will reap great things have this wonderful relationship.
However, because the greater the benefits that we can aspire to achieve here, our true reward is just our eternal relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ.


Let us pray:


Father in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, send my life for your Holy Spirit so that He definitely teach me to cultivate the true faith in the Trinity, so I will not keep a weak relationship with God, seeking stand beside him only to acquire wealth, health or well being me and my family.


Amen and thank God. Stay in the peace of the Lord Jesus Christ.
