- Mark 10:29-30 (KJV) – "And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's, But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life."
- God’s rewards are not just in heaven but also in this life, though challenges will come.
- 2 Corinthians 9:6 (KJV) – "But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully."
- A principle of multiplication: what is given in faith will return in greater measure.

the reward from sincere belief to God is eternal life, in heaven on the new earth with Father and Son as Won for you. No need for any earthly reward. What??????????? that to me is the wrong focus for any gain of self ever. When we are promised for all needs to be met, not wants, there is a major difference to me at least.
Think about what Jesus said about rewards, sitting in Moses's seat. That might end up being the only reward one will ever get, if or since are being a better person Than others, as in Luke 18:9-14
Father thank you presently for the forgiveness reconciliation given me and all others also for new life with You and Son as risen where the contentment is given, new life to rest in, whether it be going well or bad for this present minute. it will pass as everything moves forward in a split second

He took 46 years of my life. Every relationship I would have had, including children. He also took my entire family from me. I am just now getting my head together. It started when I was 5 years old, which the exact time I got saved the first time.
Something I would like to say about the 7 fold blessings, some times the 7 fold can include quality.

The number seven indicates completion in the Bible. Since we have all fallen into the snares of Satan, seven fold would indicate full restoration from sin.
