DAILY BREAD OF LIFE

(KJV.)  LUKE 16:10-12

(10)  He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
(11)  If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mam-mon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
(12)  And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's who shall give you that which is your own?


FAITHFUL STEWARDSHIP

Brethren, as believers, whatever duties or responsibilities given to us whether on our secular jobs or in the faith of the righteousness of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, we are to show truthfulness and constant support and be loyal to those responsibilities; for all things awarded to us on planet earth came from the Father of all creation; if we acquire blessings from working secular jobs but waste them in vain and cannot account for how our fortunes were dispersed; we have not been faithful stewardship and our account abilities were wrong in the perspectives of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.

Case in point, in the above text, Jesus, speaks to us about accountability; he said, (i)  He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much:  that is, if we are given responsibilities on our secular jobs or in the house of the Lord; we are to be faithful in those positions and do our best to succeed in what we do; by doing our best, we receive promotions to higher and better positions; for promotions do come with abundance of blessings from the Lord if we do well in his eyes;  (ii) and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much; for example, if we receive earnings but are not responsible to keep our own pocket books in order at the end of the month, and cannot meet our financial obligations because we misuse our blessings, it will be more difficult for us to receive abundance of blessings from Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior; because he watches over blessings to see what we do with smaller amounts to know if we will be faithful stewardship in greater blessings.


WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT:  

Points to ponder,  whether we work hard in secular jobs to acquire blessings or we won millions in playing the lotto, we are to manage our blessings wisely or we will go bankrupt; Jesus said, (a)  If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mam-mon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?  that is, if we work to earn monetary blessings but could not handle our blessings wisely, but spend wastefully and as a result we live from paycheck to paycheck every week, we are not been faithful stewardship; though, we may think we earn our own money and can spend it willfully as we can; today, Jesus is asking, who will trust us with true riches, if we cannot manage whatever amount we bring in every week faithfully?  this is points to ponder!;  (b)  And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's who shall give you that which is your own?  that is, if assignments are given to us on our secular jobs, or in the faith; let us embrace them cheerfully, take ownership and perform our duties with our whole hearts, souls and bodies; though, some responsibilities may not be financially beneficial to us; regardless, we are to do our best to make all things successful; for through our faithfulness in other matters, Jesus Christ will reward us greatly with our own heavenly blessings.

Fruits of thought, our adversary, the devil knows how to torment lives by draining out pocket books; at times, before we get our pay checks from our secular jobs, demons are ready to infiltrate our minds on how to waste that which was given to us from hard work; therefore, *let us always pray on our earnings and plead the blood of Jesus on all our financial obligations; also, besides monthly reoccurring bills which we have to pay, when we receive our earnings, **let us cultivate the habit of paying tithes to the LORD of hosts, giver of all blessings first; it is the key to success and multiple blessings, ***let us save some for future use and spend the rest as directed by the resurrection power of the Holy Spirit, not by demonic infiltration spirits; let us be ware of their negative influences on humanity.


CONCLUSION:

Brethren, it is difficult these days to manage finances; businesses are struggling to make it, and are going bankrupt, households are hanging in there by the grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; however, as believers we are already rich and have abundance of blessings given to us by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; if we work out a plan for ourselves and faithfully pay our tithes to the LORD of hosts, Jesus will help us to manage the rest of our finances and be faithful stewardship; if we do well, Jesus, will count us worthy to receive more heavenly blessings from the throne of grace forevermore.  Amen and Amen!
