TOPIC: REWARD FOR EVERYONE
TEXT: REVELATION 22:10-15.
10And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.
11He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
12And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
13I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
14Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
15For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
MEMORY VERSE: “And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.” (REVELATION 22:12)
MESSAGE:
A reward is a prize given to someone in recognition of service, effort, or achievement.
At the end of a session in school, there is prize given day when those children that performed well in various subjects are called out and given a reward for their outstanding performance while the lazy children go empty handed.
There will be a day when rewards will be given to everyone that existed on the earth, all works shall be rewarded, whether good or bad. If you are still committing sin, a day is coming when you will be rewarded with everlasting punishment in hellfire. For friends of Jesus who live a holy life and constantly preach the gospel to sinful boys and girls, they shall be rewarded with a mansion in Heaven and stars in their crown.
Your choice today will determine whether you want a reward in heaven or hell. If you are still a sinner repent and surrender to Jesus, begin to preach to sinful boys and girls so that your reward will be great in heaven.

1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
