BEING FAITHFUL WITH LITTLE.

-
*WITHIN SCRIPTURE.*

 Matthew:25.21
 "His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'

  Practically, a boss doesn't promote a worker unless they have shown the ability of management. They have to show that they can control the little they have been entrusted with. 
The Lord cannot give you beyond what you may not control.

The servants who were given little and showed ultimate ability to control were given more. The servant who showed inability to manage the little he was given was left with nothing. The Lord gives us responsibilities, but what degree of control do we show.?

You want to the Lord to promote you at you workplace, but you have failed to take care of the five christians that He has put under your control.
You want God to expand your business so that you may have more stores, but you have failed to balance the time you spend in God's ministry and in your business; and so If He gave you more, meaning you totally have no time for him.... And to save you , He will preserve you with the small business He has given you so that atleast you can have time for Him. 

We limit God's blessing by the way we manage our few given resources including time. And especially failing to manage spiritual given responsibilities and our business. Jesus said of what value is it to gain this whole world and loose your soul; so If God realizes that you can't balance between your soul and body, He would rather let you have the little with your body and have the time for your soul. If you would like to progress further; like the wise servants, manage and fully control the little God has given you so that He can be convinced that giving you more will make you a better servant.

HOLD IT

SUNDAY SERVICE  SERMON:                           HOLD IT   INTRO :  It is easy to go through life and feel embarrassed. And because of such embarrassment, it also easy to feel like throwing out something to compensate for your bad feelings. You feel you should throw out a word at someone, you feel you should throw off the relationship, you feel you should throw off the patience.  There is something that happens behind the scene that we never know about. And if we knew it, we would understand the power of holding it to our selves.   PROB : The problem we have is that we want to seek for compensation in short times, for revenge within no times...and never want to hold reactions for long.   PURP :  To enable us hold our emotions and anxieties in a world of intolerance.       >>> Christ was a man who faced a lot of persecution. He was always sought for by his enemies. They wanted him dead at all cost. Reaching a point of shamelessly paying one of his disciple to bet

THE GREAT BLISS

THE GREAT BLISS Isaiah 42:9  See, the former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you.” -------------------------------------------- When there is something God is yet to do, He has to get tools within you to accomplish it. And one tool to use in you is the mind you got. God cannot accomplish great things when the mind and heart are stuck in former things...in former years. Before He made Mary have the great son He had to make her forget the former things and focus on the new things. When the Bible clearly says that God has a good plan for us and it assures us that God has no harmful plan for us; this means that what could be holding us back is not up to God!. He has the good plan already. But the nature of our minds may be holding onto the former and never letting it go. Because of the pains you had in the last year, you still revise that and experience pains again.  But there is something new. The Lord has tol
