“After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.” Genesis 15:1 God told Abram that He was his exceeding great (boundless, endless,abundantly above all that he could ask, think or imagine) reward. He did not give him a reward of mere money or things but gave Abram Himself. God said "I AM the Reward". Abram received access to the King of Glory, the Possessor of heaven and earth, the Most High God who is in the highest place guarding and ruling over all things, making everything work to fulfill His divine plan and purpose, El Elyon, He received the REWARD who is boundless and never ends. There is no searching of his knowledge, He knows all and is All. Why was Abram given such a great reward? Webster's dictionary says a reward is something given or received in return or recompense (to pay or give compensation for) for service, merit, hardship, etc. He was rewarded, simply, for his belief in God. Genesis 15:6. Because of his belief in God in Genesis 14:18-23, he honored God in obedience to His will and he did not allow man to receive glory for God's blessing. He did his part and God did His. God and Abraham became friends. How awesome to be a friend of the Reward Himself. Think about that for a moment. Let it marinate in your heart. Selah…. The greatest thing in all of life is a relationship with God. He says draw nigh unto me and I will draw nigh unto you. James 4:8 “But as Abraham, you must believe that he is God, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6 Is it you whom God is talking to today? Please heed His voice. He is calling you to a deeper relationship, a friendship with him, what He first created us for when He placed Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden where they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day. He wants to walk with you today. What are your concerns? What is it that you don't understand?
