WE ARE NOT A PEOPLE WHO "OUTWARDLY" SEEK AFTER REWARD by Glenn H Jackson

                                           
Words of prophecy:

 
*       How many of My children know that their  reward "begins" in the earth and never ends?

*       My children must set themselves in a position [consecration] to receive a revelation of My "reward system".  For truly I say to you, it differs completely from the system of reward which is inherent in the world - and those who "dwell" therein. It is only as My children receive the revelation of Kingdom-reward that they will stop striving to attain to a position that seeks to obtain the "power" and the "benefits" that come as a result of seeking the approval and esteem [honour] of men - above seeking to walk in perfect faithfulness to Me.

*       Do not "allow" yourself to grow weary and do not faint - for great reward is just around the corner.

*       Now is the time of "the greatest manifestation of My power" that this earth has ever seen and, truly I say to you, all shall be laid bare before the consuming fire of My Spirit - both that which is righteous [with great reward], and that which is unrighteous [with great loss]!

*       My "presence" [Glory] judges sin - and rewards righteousness.

*
       "The "inward action" of My bondservants and handmaidens is the prerequisite to "any" outward action that is righteous and blameless in My sight.
As My bondservants and handmaidens abide in a perfect obedience I am using that precious obedience to "continually" minister to My people. All those who "lust after" the "outward" actions of ministry before placing themselves in an intimate and close fellowship and communion with Me are doomed to failure and defeat and great dissatisfaction! For at any given moment one is either seeking to please Me - and thus obtaining the "lavish rewards" of true service - or they are seeking to please "flesh and blood", and thus are seeking after "vainglory", and the "emptiness" it conceals.

*       Sin is not without its cost [consequences]. Faith [love and obedience] is not without its reward [Romans 14:23b].
          ...."Without faith it is impossible to please Him, for He who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him".... Hebrews 11:6 NASB
          Every time the child of God acts or speaks in love [faith] they are bringing glory to God! Not only that, they are also both touching and ministering to the Father's heart. It is because of this deep and abiding love that the true Christian has toward the Father and His perfect purposes [Will] that we are not a people who "outwardly" seek after reward. Our reward [whatever that may be - both in this age and throughout the ages of eternity] will simply be found to have been a spontaneous manifestation and by-product of the love that we have actually exercised towards the Father and His Word [and all those in our "sphere of existence"] in our time on earth - through a perfect conformity to the desires of His heart.

          If ANY child of God continues to attempt to "earn" their way into the Kingdom they shall find themselves in a very bad and difficult position in this final hour! Literally, they will be on the "outside looking in" as the Glorious Church fulfills her mandate in the earth. Our call is to a perfect obedience [and a perfect obedience and love, alone!]. For it is only through a "perfect obedience" that the "blessings" [perfect empowerment] of God can continually "overtake" us - and it is also from this position of abiding in perfect obedience [faith and love] that divine favour and Grace is continually manifested in our life and ministry.

          There is NO good in the "flesh" [Romans 7:18] and indeed the flesh profits absolutely nothing [John 6:63] [especially where the true Church and the Kingdom are concerned] and, thus, there will be an absolute separation between those who truly love God and those who do not in this most critical hour! The good news in this is that as the Glorious Church truly takes legs it will be an [extremely] bright and shining beacon for not only the lost [unsaved]but, also, for all those who had previously been held captive by "religious spirits" but who now, in a spirit of true repentance, have begun to seek the Lord with ALL of their heart.

        ...."That you may show yourselves to be blameless and guileless, innocent and uncontaminated, children of God without blemish [faultless, unrebukable] in the midst of a crooked and wicked generation [spiritually perverted and perverse], among whom you are seen as bright lights [stars or beacons shining out clearly] in the [dark] world".... Philippians 2:15 The Amplified Translation

        ...."You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart".... Jeremiah 29:13 NASB
