Surprises in Heaven

by Greg Laurie on Jun 26, 2023

 The one who plants and the one who waters work together with the same purpose. And both will be rewarded for their own hard work. 

—1 Corinthians 3:8

Scripture:

1 Corinthians 3:8 

In the Old Testament we find an account of David and his men who were returning home after God gave them success in battle. Some of the men had stayed behind and watched their equipment and supplies, and the men who had engaged in the fighting didn’t want to share the spoils with the others.

However, David told them, “No, my brothers! Don’t be selfish with what the Lord has given us. He has kept us safe and helped us defeat the band of raiders that attacked us. Who will listen when you talk like this? We share and share alike—those who go to battle and those who guard the equipment” (1 Samuel 30:23–24 NLT).

Whether God has called you to a ministry where people see you or to a ministry where you support others who are seen, God will bless you and reward you in that final day.

Maybe you think that your life isn’t really making a difference or that what you have offered to God doesn’t mean much. But you will be in for some surprises in Heaven because what seems of little value on earth will be of great value in Heaven.

I read about a man who was cleaning out his attic and found an old blue-and-white vase. He decided to take it to an auction and sell it, thinking he might get, at best, perhaps $100 for it. But to his utter amazement, the vase sold for $324,000. The buyer recognized it as an original piece from the Ming dynasty.

What may not seem to be valuable now will be worth more later. We all have gifts that God has entrusted to us. What we need to do is be faithful with what God has called us to do.
