Prepare for Heavenly Bliss

It does make a difference how you live "Behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to render to every man according to what he has done" Rev. 22:12. Prophecy tells us that when Jesus comes, those who are born again believers are going to have our works tested by fire and if our works abide, we shall receive a reward, if not we "shall suffer loss." 1 Cor. 3:11-15. My, my. How you live after you are saved will make an eternal difference. There are going to be rewards in heaven. We will give details later as to what they are and how to gain them.

Lay up treasures in heaven
It is staggering how athletes sacrifice and strive to win. Shouldn't you and I do the same as believers? Millions upon millions "sacrifice" hard earned money, and squander money gambling in lotteries and casinos hoping to win. The sad thing is most Christians just are not motivated to win rewards in heaven. Too many are slaves to the daily grind here on earth and not to the sweet by and by in heaven.

You sacrificed
You sacrificed and slaved to get a good education, even went to college, graduate school and many took specialized studies and training to get where you are. I found it pays to plan and prepare ahead. How much more important to plan and prepare for eternity. 

O dear people, you are going to leave all the material things right here. You know that. You can have treasures and trophies in heaven. There are crowns to be gained. "I will put you in charge of many things" Matt. 25:21. Be wise. "Lay up for yourself treasures in heaven" Matt. 6:20.

Prayer:  Father, You are so wonderful. You gave Your Son to suffer and die for our sins so you can forgive us our sins and save us. Then you let us serve you and gain all kinds of eternal rewards in heaven. Help us to be wise and lay treasures in heaven. In Jesus name. He LOVES you and so do I, all because of Calvary, sumner

You are in for a special blessing
