« Don’t get tired of helping others. You will be rewarded when the time is right, if you don’t give up »
6 God “will repay each person according to what they have done.”
7 To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, He will give eternal life.
8 But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger.
9 There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile;
10 but glory, honor and peace for everyone who does good: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.
Good people are wise people.
They understand that being good to others will endear them to God, so they keep doing good.
Also, they know that, according to Proverbs 11:17, when you show mercy to others,
you are actually being good to yourself, and when you are cruel to them, you are also being cruel to yourself.
It is very simple: you cannot deceive God, Whatever you sow is what you will reap (Galatians 6:7).
Our God is a good God.
He is good even to people who do evil (Matthew 5:45), so you want to be good, learn from Him.
David said in Psalm 119:68 GWT
« You are good, and you do good things. Teach me your laws. »
- One of the ways through which God helps us to do good is by anointing us.
Jesus in Acts 10:38 began to do good things because of this anointing:
How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with Him.
The moment you are empowered to do something good for someone and you do no do it, you are asking for the wrath of God to come upon you because it is a waste of His anointing. Proverbs 3:27 GWT says
« Do not hold back anything good from those who are entitled to it when you have the power to do so »
This is why whenever I see someone who needs prayers and my protocol officers are blocking the person from reaching me, I intervene and ask them to bring the fellow. I don’t want to annoy my Daddy by withholding what I know He has given me for the benefit of others.
Do you know that on the last day, we will be judged also based on how good we have been to others (Matthew 25:31-46) ? 3 John 1:11 GNT says:
« My dear friend, do not imitate what is bad, but imitate what is good. Whoever does good belongs to God; whoever does what is bad has not seen God. »
In other words, if you are truly a child of God as you claim, you must always do good.
Have you been doing good ?
Prayer focus – Father, help me to always do good unto all men, in the mighty name of Jesus.
