God Is Not Unjust to Forget Your Work

On Day 7 of our miracle prayer journey, we are asking God to reward you.

Beloved, God sees your efforts for His sake.

He sees you as you seek Him daily. He hears every prayer and catches every tear in His bottle. He sees all the labor you put forth for His Kingdom, and He sees the great love with which you love His people.

And our God—our good, kind, and gracious Heavenly Father—is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name.

Hebrews 6:10-12 tells us so specifically:

“For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end, that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises” (Hebrews 6:10-12).

Friend, let me encourage you today:

God is faithful, and He is just. Faithfulness and justice are not attributes God can put on and take off, like a coat or mantle; He IS these things, through and through—and He can never be anything else.

Second Timothy 2:11-13 says this:

“This is a faithful saying: For if we died with Him, we shall also live with Him. If we endure, we shall also reign with Him.

If we deny Him, He also will deny us. If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself” (2 Timothy 2:11-13, emphasis mine).

God cannot deny Himself.

He cannot be less than who He is; it’s simply not possible. And God IS faithful, so He will always be faithful to you. He is also just. His Word specifically says that He would have to be unjust in order to let you down, and He will never be unjust. (Again, it’s not possible for Him to be unjust.) His Word also says that He would have to be faithless in order to let us down—but He will never be faithless.

Therefore, my friend, do not let sluggishness overtake you.

Stand up. Strengthen the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees, that what is lame may not be dislocated, but may rather be healed. (See Hebrews 12:12-13.) Stand up, and “imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.”

Pray through the prayer points below, reminding God and confessing to Him that is not unjust to forget your work:

• Confess out loud to the Lord that He is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
• Thank Him in advance for the fact that He is going to show Himself faithful in your current need. He is going to come through for you!
• Ask Him to bless you for every time you have ministered to His people–whether by giving, through an encouraging word, or by serving in any other way.
• Remind the Lord that His own Word says that he who comes to God must believe that He exists, and that He is a Rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. (See Hebrews 11:6.) Ask the Lord to reward you for seeking Him and serving Him.
• Ask Him to manifest the great victories and rewards for you that Jesus Christ purchased on the cross with His blood!
• Ask the Lord to help you be diligent, with the full assurance of hope, until the end of time when Jesus returns. Pray that you would imitate those who, through faith and patience, inherit the promises.
• Thank Him for your sure reward, which He is bringing you both in Heaven and on earth.

God has not forgotten the labor of love that you have shown toward His name.

Keep on praying for miracles; you will receive the miracles for which you are contending! God is faithful, and He always watches over His Word to perform it.
