“Behold, I am coming soon, and My reward is with Me, to give to each one according to what he has done. (Revelation 22:12)
There is a day when believers will appear before the Judgment Seat of Christ to receive rewards according to how we lived our Christian life.
2 Corinthians 5:10 says, “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive his due for the things done in the body, whether good or bad.”
When you make the foundation of your life Jesus Christ and build your life upon Him, you will receive rewards, according to 1 Corinthians 3:12-14.
When you patiently endure testing and temptation, you will receive the crown of life, according to James 1:12.
When you eagerly look forward to the appearance of Jesus you will receive the Crown of Righteousness, according to 2 Timothy 4:8.
When you run the race of faith with perseverance and discipline yourself to win, you will receive a crown that does not perish, according to 1 Corinthians 9:25.
When you diligently seek God, you will receive rewards, according to Hebrews 11:6. Live your life in such a way that you will receive rewards from Jesus. ~ Jeff M Newman

Welcome back to our verse-by-verse Bible study of 1 John. Last lesson we focused on how Jesus is eternal. In this lesson, we are going to focus on hearing and obeying God.
Humble Yourself, Pray, Seek God, and Repent
and if My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land. (2 Chronicles 7:14)
