But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33
Do
you believe that God wants to reward you?
Maybe you don’t feel like you deserve a reward. I find many people struggle with this...they simply think they have to accomplish something great in order to warrant a reward. Listen to what the Bible says about this.
Hebrews 11:6 says that God rewards those who diligently seek Him.
I want to help you stop thinking one way and start believing and receiving a new way. Inside of you I want you to know: “God is a rewarder, and He wants to reward you!”
There are no limits to His rewards. And with God, it’s never a competition between His children because He has unlimited resources.
God’s rewards come because you get up every day and thank Him for His goodness, and seek His best in every situation of life.
So no matter where you are today, let me encourage you to keep going, keep seeking and start believing that God has many rewards in store for you.
You can look for and expect God’s rewards when you seek Him...it’s that simple. He’ll give you wisdom, favor, strength, direction, provision, healing and a greater measure of His peace. God wants you to expect Him to reward you.
The reward comes in the “seeking.” God says that if you will seek Him diligently, if you’ll look for Him with all your heart, He WILL REWARD YOU.
God wants to reward you!
You don’t have to be anything, accomplish anything or do anything — you just need a heart that craves for more...more of His Word, more of the life He desires to give you.
God hasn’t blessed me because I’m the smartest or the most qualified, and surely not the most talented or the most likely to succeed. He has blessed me because I diligently seek Him, and as I seek God, I find my heart wants more and more of Him.
In my own strength, I never could have done it — but the one thing I can do, that no one can stop, is choose to seek Him every day.
When you keep God first place, you won’t be able to contain all the good things He pours into your life.
Seek God — rejoice in Him, honor Him, crave Him — and everything you need will come. He’ll open the right doors, lead you to the right people and cause you to be at the right place at the right time.
I want you to get ready for God’s rewards. He’s going to reward you with favor and honor and everything you need to be blessed and fulfilled in life. Keep seeking God and watch what happens!

Without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. —Hebrews 11:6
A National Geographic News
survey in 2006 reported that many young Americans are geographically
illiterate. According to the survey, 63 percent of Americans aged 18-24 failed
to correctly locate Iraq on a map of the Middle East. The results for US geography
are even more dismal. Half could not find New York State on the map, a third
could not find Louisiana, and 48 percent could not locate the state of
Mississippi.
Understanding geography is
helpful in daily life, but “God-ography” (finding God) is infinitely more
crucial—for now and for eternity.
In Hebrews 11:6 we are told
that to find God and please Him, we first have to believe that He exists. How
can we prove that God exists? Finding God is a matter of faith—confidence in
Him and commitment to Him. This confidence and commitment should remain strong
even though the objects of our faith are unseen. The writer of Hebrews and the
apostle John agree that ultimately the way to find the Lord and please Him is
by believing in His Son Jesus (Heb. 11:6; John 14:6).
Finding God is solely a work
of God. Those who seek Him will find Him because God will give them a heart to
recognize Him as Lord (Jer. 29:13-14).
I sought the Lord, and
afterward I knew
To find God, we must be willing to seek Him.
