All Christians will stand before Jesus and give an account of their life and be rewarded for what they have done with their life while on this earth. Very few Christians think about this future judgment much, because it isn’t taught much in the church. There is such an emphasis on grace, forgiveness, imputed righteousness, God’s unmerited love, and mercy that God’s judgment of Christians gets lost in all the nice, positive stuff.

Bible truths that convict us or make us nervous usually get left off of our list of things to investigate or study about. We tend to do the head in the sand thing. We secretly hope that if we stay ignorant that our ignorance will bring about God’s mercy into our life.

Certain activities in this life will get extra attention in the judgment room of Christ. One of those actives is prayer. Prayer is not hard, God the Father does all the work we just ask, but the results of prayer are as significant as anything else we do. Most of the activities that keep us to busy to pray much will get very little if any attention at the judgment seat of Christ. Sad that we tend to have such a poor sense of value.

There will be a huge difference in Christians in eternity because of the great rewards some will have and the lack of rewards others will have.
