Scriptures: Romans 2:6-8
God “will repay each person according to what they have done.” To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger.
Hallelujah! I pray that all of you will be filled abundantly with the love of the eternal Holy Father God and the peace of the Holy Son.
The reason people fail to gain [things] as they live their lives in the world is that they live without purpose, and they live having forgotten the purpose. However, no matter you may be, if you take 100% with purpose, you are 100% certain to gain.
Hope is fulfilled in ‘two ways’. Firstly, it is fulfilled through taking action, and, secondly, it is fulfilled by obtaining [things] through taking action.
Food will not be eaten just because you look at it with your eyes. You must actually eat food. Then it will be eaten. The visible physical things are obtained by taking action in reality. You can also obtain the invisible things of the spirit by your ‘body’ taking action.
You must take action, so how will you take action in order to gain? You must do your best. Then you will gain the ‘best things’. If you cannot do your best, you cannot enjoy the ‘best life’ and the ‘best sense of satisfaction’.
It is to do your best with all of your skills by putting forth effort and studying [how to do better].
Having acquired the ‘best things’ means having acquired the ‘finest among the given things’. The ‘best things’ are things like pure gold, treasures, and diamond. The ‘next [best] things’ are like copper and iron. You must do your best. Then you can gain the ‘finest things in that area’.
You have to do your best every day. Then you will gain the ‘best things’ within your domain, and you must gain the ‘best things’. Then you will come to live rejoicing and being perfectly satisfied. If you want to gain the ‘best things’, take action 100%.
People who do not do their best and live with ‘incompleteness’ always fail to reach ‘completion’ and end at ‘incompleteness’.
May all you who heard the Word today do your best within the Lord and thus live acquiring, using, fulfilling your hopes, and enjoying a sense of satisfaction by doing so!
