IS
A MICROPHONE STEALING YOUR REWARD?
Here's how to direct your time toward heaven: He who receives and welcomes and accepts you as a believer, receives and welcomes and accepts Me, and he who receives and welcomes and accepts Me receives and welcomes My Father Who sent Me. [41] He who receives and welcomes and accepts a prophet, not because he is a big name, or popular, but because he is really is a prophet, shall receive a prophet's reward, and he who receives and welcomes and accepts a righteous man, not because he is popular or wealthy, but simply because he is a righteous man, shall receive a righteous man's reward. [42] And whoever gives to one of these little ones in rank or influence even a cup of cold water because he is My disciple, surely I declare to you, he shall not lose his reward." Matthew 10:39-42 AMP
Every second you spend feeding orphans, helping the poor and visiting the prisoner while receiving no earthly reward, no recognition, no applause, no trophies, and no money, you greatly increase your eternal reward. When you do something for others and no one notices you and gives the credit to someone else, your heart should leap for joy, because I stepped in, and I saved your eternal reward. I know it feels Sooooo good to have people clap for you, but think about, if one hour later you do something that displeases them, they will throw you off the platform, like garbage. Think how crazy is it? Can you spend, eat, or drink applause? Can you even take it out of the room with you? You can't even talk about it, people don't want to hear you bragging. Yet people will do crazy, stupid things and even die for the worthless applause on men.
"When you pray, or visit, or give, or feed people, or pay someones way, or help someone who can't repay you, you must not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by people. Truly I tell you, they have their reward in full already, and so will you if people lift you up for your good works!" Matthew 6:5 AMP You are going to be shocked beyond words when you enter the kingdom, all the big people here will be the little people down there! All the door keepers, and attendants here will be made up of your christian big people because a microphone stole their reward. Not the microphone used to amplify their voice, but the one used to broadcast all that they did for Me.
If you want to enjoy eternity to it's fullest, "behave yourselves wisely, living prudently and with discretion in your relations with those of the outside world (the non-Christians), making the very most of the time and seizing (buying up) the opportunity, refusing to live for self. [6] Let your speech at all times be gracious (pleasant and winsome), seasoned as it were with salt, so that you may never be at a loss to know how you ought to answer anyone who puts a question to you." Colossians 4:5-6 AMP Making sure that "When you give your life for others do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, and please put down the mic" Matthew 6:3 AMP
Picture yourself with hose that's connected to a fifty gallon barrel of
water, a hose that cannot be shut off but can only directed onto a beautiful
garden or down a sewer pipe. That's a perfect description of you and time.
People use the misleading term, "my time", over and over. Time does not belong
to any human, no one can possess something that disappears by the second. The
natural human life is under the full control of something that cannot be seen,
possessed, stopped, slowed, and disappears every second. "You do not know if
there will be tomorrow. For what is your whole life? It is even a vapour, that
appeareth for a little time, and then vanishes away." James 4:14 KJV
The only thing you can do with time is direct it in one of two directions,
either toward heaven or hell. Every second that you spend on self it's directed
down the sewer, even right down to "every idle word that men shall speak, they
shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. [37] For by your words you
shall be justified, and by your words you shall be condemned." Matthew 12:36-37
KJV Now break it down to this, "Whoever finds his lower life, spends it on
himself, is actually pouring it down the sewer, and he will lose the heaven life
that time was supposed to produce, and whoever gives his time for others, his
human self life, on My account, will find his heaven life, where time never runs
out.
Here's how to direct your time toward heaven: He who receives and welcomes and accepts you as a believer, receives and welcomes and accepts Me, and he who receives and welcomes and accepts Me receives and welcomes My Father Who sent Me. [41] He who receives and welcomes and accepts a prophet, not because he is a big name, or popular, but because he is really is a prophet, shall receive a prophet's reward, and he who receives and welcomes and accepts a righteous man, not because he is popular or wealthy, but simply because he is a righteous man, shall receive a righteous man's reward. [42] And whoever gives to one of these little ones in rank or influence even a cup of cold water because he is My disciple, surely I declare to you, he shall not lose his reward."

One last thing, "take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life
consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth." Luke 12:15
KJV STOP FOR A MOMENT! Think, will today be poured down the sewer, or will you
water your eternal garden? Your barrel may be almost empty, use every drop
wisely!
