Recompense and Reward
There is a law in the Kingdom of God that is similar to the Law of Sowing and Reaping. This morning, while reading a devotional, I saw a perfect example of this Law of Recompense and Reward. In the book of Genesis, chapter 42, verses 21-22, it speaks of how Joseph's brothers realized that the actions they carried out against Joseph had come back upon them. Every action that we carry out has a corresponding recompense or reward. If we do something bad, we can expect a recompense. If we do something good, we can expect a reward. This is a law which corresponds with the Law of Sowing and Reaping. Every action brings about a reaction whether for good or bad. We must take these laws and apply them to our daily lives. Since the Kingdom of God is ran by God's law which is His Word, if we consider ourselves to be Kingdom citizens, we must have an understanding of these laws.
