Fruitfulness Through the Holy Spirit
“He said therefore, “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. He called ten servants of his, and gave them ten mina coins, and told them, ‘Conduct business until I come.’ But his citizens hated him, and sent an envoy after him, saying, ‘We don’t want this man to reign over us.’ “When he had come back again, having received the kingdom, he commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by conducting business. The first came before him, saying, ‘Lord, your mina has made ten more minas.’ “He said to him, ‘Well done, you good servant! Because you were found faithful with very little, you shall have authority over ten cities.’ “The second came, saying, ‘Your mina, Lord, has made five minas.’ “So he said to him, ‘And you are to be over five cities.’” (Luke 19:12-19 WEB)
It seems like with every passing day, we are so much nearer to the time of Jesus’ return.
Yet, the Lord does not want us to be idle just because we sense His impending return.
He wants us to bear good fruit through the Holy Spirit that we have received.
The world needs to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and experience the power of the Holy Spirit who resides in us.
Did you notice how each of the ten servants received the same amount of one mina?
The mina being the same, could represent the same Holy Spirit that every believer receives upon salvation.
The first servant’s mina gained ten more minas, whereas the second servant’s mina gained five more minas.
I like how the servants gave credit to the mina for the gain, and did not draw attention to themselves.
It is like wisely recognizing that fruitfulness is not by strength, not by power, but by the Spirit of the Lord.
The first servant’s reward was in proportion with the results he produced through the mina. For gaining ten minas, he received authority over ten cities. For gaining five minas, the second servant received authority over five cities.
All ten servants each received one mina initially, but their rewards were different, depending on their end results.
This shows that salvation is the same for all believers who place their faith in Jesus as Lord, but our eternal rewards will be measured based on our good works.
““Behold, I come quickly. My reward is with me, to repay to each man according to his work.” (Revelation 22:12 WEB)
Good works come in many forms, and generally anything done for Abba God and Jesus with faith, hope, and love, are considered good works.
The Lord Jesus is your Rewarder. Are you ready to received authority over cities and other spheres of His kingdom during the Millennium and beyond?
Learn all about eternal rewards and how to maximize them, in my debut book “Sandcastles Don’t Last Forever”. It is truly a relevant read for this end-time generation. Allow the Holy Spirit to show you revelations of what awaits us beyond this mortal life, and the true riches in glory that will be given to believers who wisely make preparations now: http://bit.ly/sandcastlesdontlastforever
