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.

TRIBE OF LENDERS

TRIBE OF LENDERS   Proverbs 19:17  He who is kind and generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward him for what he has done. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life with the mind of "it's not enough...it's not enough". By nature, we were created to recognize the fact that it's we first then .... We were created to survive and always know that there is not enough. Our genes have been made to think about ourselves alone and how we survive in the world of scarcity. This fact that thrives within us is not supposed to be proved true. There are several results that God has set for those that prove such rules wrong. You know, when you try to go against human nature and try to mimic the nature of God, you attract more of what God has set for the cause. As the human nature is self centered and self seeking, stepping out of such to pursue kindness and open hands attracts God's attention...it attracts the rewa...

OLDEN STRENGTH

OLDEN STRENGTH Psalm 77:1 I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life thinking about the future and forgetting the past. Craving for the future is one thing I have realized does not end. Even the very rich still have cravings. There can not be a moment where cravings end and the mind is inactive only thriving in gratification. Such a moment is only created by us. Anyway, that was a by- the- way. Our point starts from here. The future does not hold the roots but the past does. The roots are not from the sky but are from where the tree started. What makes the tree strong are the roots .  What makes the future strong are the roots. They are the past. You cannot know where you should go unless you know where you came from. How typical you may know where you came from is another factor.  Knowing that God is great is not knowing the future that holds. Knowing that Go...

FORWARD

FORWARD Luke 13:33  In any case, I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day—... --------------------------------------------    A Levite in the desert thought was cunning. After killing the Egyptian, he sauntered back to the community. Little did he realise that he was noticed by his fellow and that the news had gone about faster than it could. Knowing this, he fled to Midian where he met the Lord. And being asked by the Lord to rescue his people from slavery, Moses refused. He thought that role was better with someone more superior. But after the Lord insisting, he took the task. The people who were thought as slaves were no lesser to stubbornness and disrespect. They gave Moses hard time. But one thing that happened was forward movement.  Even the Lord used lots of wonders to sustain them through the journey and yet many died from their stubbornness. But regardless of their deaths, the journey went forward. God moved forward. Moses faced the worst of trial...
