Faithfulness 01/13/2010
 
Faithfulness We’re in the hour when it will require our faithfulness.

Matthew 25:21

God wants us to be faithful in the smallest things first. Then He gives us more. The problem is that our flesh always wants more and better. We’re never satisfies or content. Why? One reason is self deception. We think the little things do not matter. The truth is that they are the most important. The small things are what holds the key to our freedom. Do not despise small beginnings.

Cleaning the church, and keeping the grounds outside may not seem important. But it is one of the little things we need to do as church members. Even if you didn’t make the mess.

1 Corinthians 15:57-58

We know through the scriptures that all we do for God is not in vain because it is a finished work. It was successful in the kingdom. We have victory because He did. All we have to do is to be steadfast and unmovable in the work of the Lord. People are always watching us.

Tithing, if you are not tithing on what God is giving you then you can expect not to have a harvest in a time of famine. If you owe everyone and you don’t pay those you borrow from the word calls you an evil person. If you are bouncing checks all over town what kind of witness is that? Be steadfast in what you have learned.

When you make good habits it will cause you to see results if you do not give up. If we give up too soon we’ll lose faith in the word that God spoke to us. We try things and when tey don’t produce in our time frame we quit, then we lose.

Ephesians 4:11-15

We can’t be tossed about by every wind or everything that sounds good. We have to make a decision. Our flesh wants us going here and there and never accomplishing anything. Things of this world is vanity and it will all burn up. Sow into spiritual things that moth and rust cannot destroy.

We cannot grow weary in our mission for our city. We must continue our prayer rides and prayer walks.

Ezekiel 22:30

The Lord is looking for a steadfast person who will really lay down their life to fast and pray for salvations, healings, and restorations. We’re too busy we say or we’re not called to do that. How can we ever stand in the gap for another or get up in the middle of the night to pray if we don’t learn to be faithful in the little things first? We don’t like the little things. But what if you that by being faithful in what you know to do is pleasing God and that is all that He is requiring of you. Wouldn’t that be better?

Can God save half a man? God cannot save a whole man who is only half obedient. But God can save half a man whose whole heart is obedient.

1 Corinthians 10:31

Everything that you are doing people are watching. More importantly God is watching. Are we bringing Glory to God through the little things? This is how you are rewarded. This is how He uses you in ministry.
