Heaven Has Distinctions

Apostle Grace Lubega

1 Corinthians 3:13‭-‬15 (KJV); Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is. If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.‬‬‬‬

Whoever believes in Jesus Christ as his or her LORD and savior is a candidate for heaven, but not everyone who goes to heaven is ready for it.

Take the example of one of the criminals that hang besides Jesus at the cross. He said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.” And Jesus replied, “I assure you, today you will be with me in paradise.” (Luke 23:42-43 NLT). He went to heaven immediately, but that does not mean that he was ready for it.

At the beginning of salvation, one is a babe, and over time, he or she is expected to mature in the Word, the anointing and in service unto God, so that when the Great Shepherd appears, they will receive a crown of never-ending glory and honor, (1 Peter 5:4 NLT).

When a man Labours well, His Lord says unto him, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant” (Matthew 25:21a).

Every man is called to be a worker of the kingdom because the Bible says, “Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire.
And if any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he shall be saved; yet so as by fire.‬”

This simply means that some people will get to heaven, but their works will not stand the test of eternal fire.

Child of God, you have to understand that what you are doing on earth counts; it is these labours that define your crown and reward.

GOLDEN NUGGET:

Child of God, you have to understand that what you are doing on earth counts; it is these labours that define your crown and reward.

PRAYER: Father God, I thank you for this great Word. I thank you because you have taught me to number my days that I may apply my heart to wisdom every day of my life. I mature in your Word, the anointing and my service unto you because I understand I have been called; I am an ambassador of heaven; a worker of the kingdom of God; By grace, I labour mightily to do my part and fulfill my mandate. In Jesus’ mighty name. Amen
