Rewards (The Book of Signs, Ch. 16)

by Dr. David Jeremiah

All the honors, awards and trophies of this world have little lasting value. While we’re grateful when others recognize something we have done, our chief concern shouldn’t be the approval of others but the approval of God. At the Judgement Seat of Christ we as believers shall receive our rewards for the work we have done while living as Christians on earth.

Our eternal destination is the consequence of what we believe on earth. Our eternal compensation is the consequence of how we behave on earth.

The Description of Heaven’s Rewards

• The Victor’s Crown
• The Crown of Rejoicing
• The Crown of Righteousness
• The Crown of Life
• The Crown of Glory

The Greatest Reward of All

None of these crowns represent the best reward. The Lord Himself is our exceedingly great reward. But what will we do with the crowns that we are given?

The twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying: “You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power; for You created all things, and by Your will they exist and were created.”

Revelation 4:10-11

After we receive our rewards humbly with gratitude, we’re going to see Jesus. We’re going to take the only thing we have in heaven, which is the crown He gave us, and we’ll fall down at His feet and give it back to Him.
