READ: 1 Corinthians 3:8-15

In all labour there is profit: but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury” – Proverbs 14:23

One of the most common verses engraved on many tombstones in our cemeteries is taken from Revelation 14:13:

…Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth…that they may rest from their labours…

Now notice: It did not say, “Blessed are those in the choir,” or “Blessed are them that die in the church.” Friends, it is a matter of being in the Lord, not just in the church!

The text ends with a very important revelation: “…and their works do follow them.”

Look, when you die you cannot take anything along with you. No, not your car, your money, or even your clothes. After death the only thing that can follow you are your works. Those are the fruits you have borne in your Christian life; the disciples you have established in the Lord, your Christian children.

As you probably know, it is considered a great shame to be childless in certain societies. Now, concerning spiritual children, we learn that: Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them [children]: they shall not be ashamed… Psalm 127:5

Very soon, you are going to stand before the judgement seat of Christ. Are you going to stand there, empty-handed and ashamed? On the other hand, will you bear your fruits now, so that your works can follow you? Think about it.
