Are you Compensation worthy?


Isaiah 40: 10
See, the Sovereign LORD comes with power, and his arm rules for him. See, his reward is with him, and his recompense accompanies him.
 
Most of us get it, that the Lord will one day come with great power.
The prophet Isaiah says that His reward will be with Him.
But who’s the reward for, you ask?
 
Some of you might even wonder what’s  a “recompense”?
Recompense means; to award compensation for victims who suffer injury or loss.
 
Then there must be something to what Jesus called us to. He said that we should be a “living sacrifice”.
Anyone who has sacrificed anything at all, knows that loss might be suffered in the midst of the sacrifice.
It sure was true for Jesus, or for any willing sacrificial saint for that matter.
 
It sounds to me, that anyone willing to give sacrificially, will receive compensation from the great compensator.
So what does the person get, who doesn’t sacrifice anything?
Probably not much in the way of any true compensation.
But the person who sacrifices much, will be handsomely compensated and rewarded one day……….
