IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL
TOPIC: GOD IS LOOKING FOR FAITHFULNESS
Matt 24:45-46
"Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time? It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns.
Therefore, whether in big or small ways, we must do what God has entrusted us. We must share Christ - directly, bringing them to church, or praying for the unsaved.
Paul tells them in his second letter - 2 Cor 5:18-20
"All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation and He has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us"
If you are a boss or master, what one quality would you look for in a worker or servant?
- reliable, trustworthy, integrity, loyalty Do what I tell them and do it well.
The one quality that God looks in us is faithfulness.
Notice what Paul says about being faithful -"it is required." As servants of God, as God's children entrusted with the Gospel, we are required to be faithful to this cause.
From the parable of the talents we saw earlier - God is not going to see your success in terms of quantity, output no. of converts saved under you (you can't save anyone unless HS works) but you must be faithful - whether God has given us 5, 2 or 1 talent. We don't have to compare our accomplishments with wrong measurement. Important question: How faithful are you?
God is looking for faithfulness. He has entrusted the work of His Kingdom to us,
LET US PRAY
DEAR LORD JESUS CHRIST, HELP US TO BE FAITHFUL TO THE END IN JESUS NAME
