or unpleasant experiences. A shield prevents you from being seen or detected. It can prohibit or reduce the escape of sound, light, radiation, etc. A shield separates or divides you away from what is harmful. After an extreme battle, God affirmed that He was the one keeping Abram safe and secure. He said I AM also your exceedingly great REWARD. A REWARD is a gift given in recognition of one’s service, effort or achievement. It is fair return for good behavior that connotes being regarded or heeded. It’s as if God says to Abram, “I see your worship, who you are becoming and what you’re choosing. Your reward won’t come through Me…IT IS ME…and there is no greater reward.” We would do well to adopt Abram’s posture before God. In life and ministry we too often seek money, fame, accolades, opportunities, notoriety and the praise of men, but HE is the reward of worship.
