“Therefore, my dear brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always excelling in the Lord’s work, knowing that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.” ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭15:58‬ ‭HCSB‬‬

Because death has no power over us, my dear brothers, let us be steadfast immovable, always excelling in the Lord’s work, know that our labor in the Lord is not in vain. 

When we slack on doing the Lord’s work we begin to slip toward the world’s work. Satin’s greatest deception is that our work is not important. But know this for certain that God does see every act that is done in the name of Jesus, and He sees every act done for His kingdom and He sees every act positive or negative toward His anointed people. 

“The one who welcomes you welcomes Me, and the one who welcomes Me welcomes Him who sent Me. Anyone who welcomes a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward. And anyone who welcomes a righteous person because he’s righteous will receive a righteous person’s reward. And whoever gives just a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is a disciple — I assure you: He will never lose his reward! ””
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭10:40-42‬ ‭HCSB‬‬

“One day Elisha went to Shunem. A prominent woman who lived there persuaded him to eat some food. So whenever he passed by, he stopped there to eat. Then she said to her husband, “I know that the one who often passes by here is a holy man of God, so let’s make a small room upstairs and put a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp there for him. Whenever he comes, he can stay there.” 
One day he came there and stopped and went to the room upstairs to lie down. He ordered his attendant Gehazi, “Call this Shunammite woman.” So he called her and she stood before him. Then he said to Gehazi, “Say to her, ‘Look, you’ve gone to all this trouble for us. What can we do for you? Can we speak on your behalf to the king or to the commander of the army? ”
She answered, “I am living among my own people.” 
So he asked, “Then what should be done for her? ” 
Gehazi answered, “Well, she has no son, and her husband is old.” 
“Call her,” Elisha said. So Gehazi called her, and she stood in the doorway. Elisha said, “At this time next year you will have a son in your arms.” 
Then she said, “No, my lord. Man of God, do not deceive your servant.” The woman conceived and gave birth to a son at the same time the following year, as Elisha had promised her.”

The good we do for the man of God will be rewarded toward us. The good we do toward the church of God will be rewarded toward us. The good we do toward God will be rewarded toward us. No good deed goes unnoticed. Let us be hot toward God and the things He is up to for what He is up to is for our benefit and the Churches benefit. 

“I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish that you were cold or hot. So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am going to vomit you out of My mouth.”
