This week Pastor Vlad continues his sermon series on Jesus with a message titled,"Jesus is the Judge". He gives an interesting perspective on the judgement seat of Christ and shares with us four ways that serving serves us.

Sermon notes:

Romans 14:10

2 Corinthians 5:10

The judgment seat of Christ does not determine our salvation; that was determined by Christ’s sacrifice on our behalf (1 John 2:2) and our faith in Him (John 3:16).

Greek word for judgment seat is bema is a tribunal for rewards.

Salvation is a gift; rewards are heavenly treasures

Salvation is God’s grace; rewards are our works

Salvation is eternal life; rewards are crowns, possessions, and rules of service

Bible mentions 5 crowns:

1. The Imperishable Crown (1 Corinthians 9:24-25)

2. The Crown of Rejoicing (1 Thessalonians 2:19)

3. The Crown of Righteousness (2 Timothy 4:8)

4. The Crown of Glory (1 Peter 5:4)

5. The Crown of Life (Revelation 2:10)

Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, each one's work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one's work, of what sort it is. If anyone's work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward. If anyone's work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire. 1 Corinthians 3:12-15

Gold, silver, and precious stones Wood, hay, and straw

Found under ground (devotion). Found on the ground (emotion)

Small in size (serve). Large in size (show)

Very rare Very common

Expensive (sacrifice) Cheap (self obsorbed)

Fire purifies (trials). Fire destroys

Helping others is helping you:

1. Serving can help you live longer.

2. Serving is contagious.

3. Serving others makes us happy.

4. Serving attracts miracles.

Prayer Points:

Father, let the grace serve You, with my resources and my time, come upon me in Jesus name.

We declare, that our prophetic destiny and purpose, will be fulfilled now without delay or interference. We declare that divine timing, strategic relationships, open doors and favor in high places shall manifest continually in our lives.

“Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!”
