Those Heavenly rewards are the thing that will help you most to keep cool when you face temptation to fit in with the world’s system.
It’s okay to have fun. But, don’t get so caught up in the world’s system once you’re saved, that you ignore God. Jesus has promised a place for you. It will be so fabulous! However, imagine your embarrassment if you have no rewards. If you have no rowns to lay before the Savior’s feet. All those billions of people and angels around Jesus; would you really want to be the only one without a crown?
The world can tempt us to do many things, and to take our focus off of God. But, you can overcome that system, which says to forget God, by keeping your mind on God. You can overcome that world’s system of many religions by focusing on your one, true relationship. Because, if you have trusted Him as Savior, He calls you a friend. And, it is only through Him that we could get to Heaven, because of our sin. Because, while the world tries to say man can lift himself up, the truth is that God came down to us.
