"MAKE SACRIFICES AND BE REWARDED"MASTURGUIDES CHALLENGED.

Master Guide James Mtupanyama has advised Area 47 Church to work towards attaining the heavenly kingdom by making sacrifices.

"There is no sacrifice that goes without being rewarded," said Mtupanyama referring to the sacrifice that Jesus made in order to save humanity as a model to be emulated.

Reading from James 15:13, Mtupanyama asked the church to sacrifice their time and treasures for God's work because there is a bigger reward awaiting those who sacrifices.

He told a story of one Bryan Anderson who, after helping a stranded lady one night by changing her flat tyre, he did not charge the lady but asked her to help another needy person when she encounters one. Little did he know that the lady would end up helping his own wife by giving her a token of US$400 when she met her at a coffee shop where she worked whilst heavily expectant.

"That is how God works when you sacrifice, He brings rewards in many other forms and through many other channels," said Master Guide Mtupanyama.

Area 47 church is undergoing a church building project which requires its members to sacrifice a lot in order to finish the project.
