And His Reward is With Him, December 9
Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every
man according as his work shall be.
Revelation 22:12
.
Our work here is soon to close, and every man will receive his reward
according to his own labor. I was shown the saints’ reward, the immortal
inheritance, and saw that those who had endured the most for the truth’s
sake will not think they have had a hard time, but will count heaven cheap
enough
Every day bears its burden of record of unfulfilled duties, of neglect,
of selfishness, of deception, of fraud, of overreaching. What an amount
of evil works is accumulating for the final judgment! When Christ shall
come, ... what a revelation will then be made
Every good and every wrong act, and its influence upon others, is
traced by the Searcher of hearts, to whom every secret is revealed. And
the reward will be according to the motives which prompted the action
The coming of Christ is near and hasteth greatly. The time in which to
labor is short, and men and women are perishing.... We need the converting
power of God to take hold of us, that we may understand the needs of
a perishing world. The burden of my message to you is: Get ready, get
ready to meet the Lord. Trim your lamps, and let the light of truth shine
forth into the byways and the hedges. There is a world to be warned of the
near approach of the end of all things....
We need the presence of the Holy Spirit of God with us, that our hearts
may be softened and that we may not bring a harsh spirit into the work. I
pray that the Holy Spirit may take full possession of our hearts. Let us act
like children of God who are looking to Him for counsel, ready to work
out His plans wherever presented. God will be glorified by such a people,
and those who witness our zeal will say; Amen and amen
