EXPERIENCE 

THE

REWARDS

 "I want the presence of God Himself, or I don’t want anything at all to do with religion…I want all that God has or I don’t want any."

-A.W. Tozer

Have you ever thought about why God wants to reward us? I know I do it for my children. They work so much more efficiently if they are motivated by a reward. And it’s just fun to see their faces when they receive a reward. Is it any different for us? Apparently not. God wants to reward us. 

Jeremiah 17:10

“I the Lord search the heart
and examine the mind,
to reward a man according to his conduct,
according to what his deeds deserve.”

Mark 1:35 – Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed. 

Luke 5:16 – But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.

My challenge to you is this: follow Jesus OFTEN into solitary places. Plan at least 3 times today to retreat with Jesus for 7 minutes or more. Put it on your calendar, and go into the secret place.
