Our Exceeding Great Reward

August 21, 2017

Devotions:

      I would rather have the presence of the Lord, that anything that the world has to offer!

      “Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee. My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭73:25-26‬ ‭KJV‬‬

      “After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.”

‭‭Genesis‬ ‭15:1‬ ‭KJV‬‬

        We are the children of Abraham and our reward is the Lord.  We do not have to wait until we get to heaven to enjoy our reward, we can feast upon His presence daily. The reward does not diminish just because we partake of it and it does not diminish because more people enjoy Him.  In His presence is fullness of joy and at His right hand are pleasures forever more.  Our reward is worth more than all the treasures of the earth. His presence is our pursuit.  He is our life, our fullness and joy.  We need nothing beside Him. We choose daily to be in His presence and partake of His goodness.  He dwells with in us.  Let us acknowledge His presence that never leaves nor forsakes us, though our praises.
