St Matthew, Chapter 10, verse:41b, The Reward.

Our paragraph topic is:  (Blessings for the Apostles' benefactors) Part 4. 

There are still more rewards that Christ tells is disciples about.  Receiving the prophet brings the prophet's reward.  For the prophet is blessed to hear the voice of God speak to him that he may speak to the people.  He does not speak of his own but only the words that God gives to him.  There is no hesitation in him.  There is no deceit or lie in him.  There is only truth in him, the truth that God has given him.  Christ tells his disciples that he who receives a just man will receive a just man's reward.  He says,  "He who receives a just man because he is a just man, shall receive a just man's reward."  

Who is a just man?  How are we to determine a just man from an unjust man?  Both speak justly.  One speaks complete justice and the other speaks partial justice.  Hear and understand!  Justice calls you to her beckon.  Justice comes from God, the father of all justice.  From God justice comes forth to live among men, in their hearts.  Those who know and accept God will know his justice.  They will be blessed by the justice of God because they know that God is a just God and all injustice will be repaid. 

So a just man walks with Justice.  She, Justice, walks with him, consults with him, guides his judgements, provides insight to the issues of justice, and lives within him, being one with his being.  The reward of being a just man is to have Justice abide within you.  For she is fair.  She is honest.  She is not blind but sees all.  And God is her judge who executes the penalties of her wisdom.  OH the joy that she brings.  OH, the peace that is hers.  OH, the love that is within her heart for those who love her.  The reward of a just man is to have Justice with him.  And the reward of those who receive a just man is to become the children of Justice.  

Do you know Justice?  Is she your mother and you her child?  Christ said blessed are they who hunger and thirst for Justice for they shall be satisfied.  Mother Justice, your children call for you.  Mother Justice your children hunger for you.  Mother Justice your children thirst for the cool milk that feeds them to satisfaction.  Many a man claims Justice as their mother.  Many a man desires to have her at their call.  Many a man speak in her name.  Only those who know the truth in God come to know the Justice of God.  For God is a gracious God.  He is a loving God.  He is a forgiving God.  And Justice is his balance that right may equal wrong, that evil may suffer justice, that injustice may be balanced with the wrath of God.

Come children of Justice.  Receive your reward.  Gather around mother Justice and listen to her voice that you may speak her truths.  For God loves the just.  Do you walk in justice?  Have you received her gift.  Receive a just person and receive the gift of the just man.  God will reward you!
