Topic : Faithfulness.
Memory Verse : Luke 12:44. Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.
Bible Reading : Luke 12:41-43 NIV. Key Verse : v43.
Peter asked, “Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everyone?” The Lord answered, “Who then is the faithful and wise manager, whom the master puts in charge of his servants to give them their food allowance at the proper time? It will be good for that servant whom the master finds doing so when he returns.
Jesus Christ was teaching about the need to live conscious of his imminent return in order for men to live prepared to receive him, since he will return to reward his faithful servants and judge those who vowed that he will never rule over them. The fact that Jesus Christ who was received into the heavens in the presence of his disciples is coming back again is not negotiable. As many as think they don’t need him in their lives will regret rejecting him and his work of grace when it will be too late. That is a time when there will be no room to make amends. ”“What should we do then?” the crowd asked. ohn answered, “Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.” Even tax collectors came to be baptized. “Teacher,” they asked, “what should we do?” “Don’t collect any more than you are required to,” he told them. Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?” He replied, “Don’t extort money and don’t accuse people falsely—be content with your pay.”” Luke 3:10-14.
As for believers we have to live with the understanding that there are things the Lord committed to our care in his kingdom. And that how we will treated at his return will be determined by how we handle those things. There are things Jesus wants to do in every generation. Because he has given the earth to man, he can’t come and do those things by himself. Even his angels on assignment are helpless, except men align with God. He therefore depends heavily on ordinary men like us to get his tasks accomplished daily in the lives of men here on earth. That is the reason he asked us to occupy till he returns. “He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.” Luke 19:12-13 KJV.
Every child of God has been endowed by the Spirit of God resident in us to be useful and productive in his mighty hands. This becomes possible only when we consciously pay attention to what the master has given us as to make them active and functional in order to deploy them to use. We have a responsibility to discover whom we are and the area the Lord desires we should be a blessing to others. When we are intentional about it, the Spirit will always be there to help us. Every man’s reward will be determined by how faithful we were in handling those things the Lord in his wisdom committed to our care. Today find out who you are before God and the value you should be adding to his kingdom wherever you are. Your faithfulness in handling those things will determine your promotion or rising in the kingdom. On a very important note, same faithfulness will be the yardstick that will determine your reward at the end your journey. ““The first one came and said, ‘Sir, your mina has earned ten more.’ “ ‘Well done, my good servant!’ his master replied. ‘Because you have been trustworthy in a very small matter, take charge of ten cities.’” Luke 19:16-17.
Prayer : Thank you Father God for saving my soul and counting me worthy to represent you here on earth. Help me to to be faithful in everything you committed to my care in your kingdom. Thank you because your Spirit will always be there to help me in Jesus precious name… Amen 🙏🏿.
Yearly Bible Reading : Luke 9:28-45.
