Scripture- Hebrews 11:32-39 (I encourage you to read the whole chapter)
The Hall of Fame are for those who are in sports, music, literary arts or some other kind of profession. This person has gone above and beyond in their area of expertise and domain. The ceremony for this Hall of Fame is a time set aside to honor these outstanding individuals.
It is a tedious process, particularly for the Football Hall of Fame- for choosing the inductees.
But I have to ask- what is the criteria to get into God's Hall of Fame? Hebrews 11 verse 6 tells us- “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”. So- 1st believe and 2nd have faith!
Now who is on God’s selection committee? – Who is making the decision about our performance and faith? Well- it’s not 50 people-—there is only 1. The One in who you believe gave His life so you can have access to the tree of Life—-our Savior- Jesus Christ!
When you and I get inducted into God's Hall of Fame- we get a crown and robe of righteousness. We will walk on streets of gold, see Jesus face to face and our name will be in the Book of Life!
Can't wait to hear Him say- "Well done!!
Be blessed!!
