Thank God for the Godly!


There were some good people in the Church of Thyatira. The Lord knew their works, all the hard work they were doing and the love that was the basis for it and their faithfulness to Him. He saw all they did even to their giving of a cup of cold water.


Some people are quick to spread a great banquet, but they are slow to give just a cup of cold water. The smallest deed of kindness done in our Lord's name will not go unrewarded.


There is too much today of the big showy things. Let us remember that God does not overlook the ministry of the little things.


The Lord commended some in Thyatira because they were hard working and the things they did increased in value. The last things they did were better than the first things.


We might well ask ourselves if we are growing in our spiritual lives. Were the works done after our conversion the greatest works for the Lord? Have we left our first love? Or are we progressing in our Christian lives to where we are more effective in what we do for the Lord as the days go by?


Apparently some in Thyatira had come back to their first love and were growing in grace and in the knowledge of Christ.


"For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister" (Heb. 6:10).
