Biblical Faithfulness & Responsibility
Focus Word: Biblical Faithfulness & Responsibility
Focus Verse: Luke 16:10 “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much"
Today’s Declaration: I act responsibly in all things today; God entrusts me with greater influence
4 points to contemplate:
1. Responsibility:
Responsibility is faithfulness. Everything we possess is entrusted by God. Time, Skills, Family, Finances, Ministry – all these are entrusted(loaned) to us. Opportunities given to us should not be wasted. Seize every opportunity to help others.
Psalm 24:1 says, "The earth and everything in it belong to God."
1 Corinthians 4:2 -“Now, a person who is put in charge as a manager must be faithful.”
God is looking for faithfulness among His stewards (chosen people). When God created Adam, he asked him to manage His perfect creation. Similarly, we too are expected to be a good steward of all that He has given us in our lifetime & that includes family and church. It may be an institution, or a tuition centre, or even a cottage industry. Whatever it is, take care of it.
Matthew: 25:14-15 ….who called his servants and entrusted his wealth to them…
Stewardship begins the exact moment we receive this revelation that we are managers and not owners.
2. Small Responsibilities Prepare Us For Greater Influence: Jesus established an unchanging Kingdom principle – faithfulness in little things qualifies us for greater things. Joseph managed Potiphar’s house before he managed Egypt (Genesis 39). David was a shepherd boy before he became the King of Israel. Similarly, in the New Testament, we see Timothy proved his loyalty and faithfulness to the church before he was made a minister of the church.
Proverbs: 20:11 - Even small children are known by their actions…
Mathew : 25:21 - …' Well done, good and faithful servant!...
Proverbs: 28:20 - A faithful person will be richly blessed…
Great opportunities usually arrive disguised as small responsibilities.
3. Responsible People Take Ownership, Not Make Excuses: They do not make lame excuses and escape. Take ownership of a mistake & course correct. Making excuses started in the garden of Eden with Adam blaming Eve and Eve blaming the snake for disobeying God! On the other hand, in the Book of Nehemiah, we see him accept responsibility. Similarly, Paul accepted responsibility for his ministry.
Responsible people ask: What can I do, instead of who can I blame?
Proverbs: 28:13- He who covers his sins will not prosper…
Galatians 4:5 - For each one should carry their own load
Ecclesiastes 9:10 – Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all strength…
4. God Rewards Responsible Servants:
God notices every action of faithful stewardship. Nothing done for Him is insignificant.
Revelation: 22:12 - ….and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work.
Let’s pray!
