Be Found Faithful

Moreover it is required in stewards that one be found faithful. (1 Corinthians 4:2)

 

While the Lord never instructs us to trust in men, He does expect men to become trustworthy – and He has every right to expect such, because He’s given us His Holy Spirit to accomplish that work in us. Yes, God has entrusted us with much, and He expects much in return. The scriptures make it crystal clear that we will give an account for our lives, therefore the Lord expects us to live well and walk by faith. Are you being trustworthy and faithful in God’s mind? It’s a matter of great importance, so you need to be sure.

 

"Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?" (Luke 18:8)

This is the essential question we must ask ourselves, "When Christ returns for me, will He find me being faithful to Him?" Some think that Jesus will be looking for great works, prosperity, successful ministries and ministers, revival, wealthy and victorious saints, and the like. Yet, Jesus is coming back for a church without spot or wrinkle, set apart to Himself, not one entangled in the web of worldly concerns and enterprise. We are called to be faithful — that is, faithful to Him and Him alone. That is an entirely different message than what is so often preached today. May we seek more and more to be found in Him, and may we be found faithful when He returns.

 

Let's Pray - Father God, thank You for Your Spirit who makes me faithful in all things. I will walk in a way that honors You, and I will give You glory in everything I do. In Jesus name, Amen.
