FAITHFULNESS

” IF YOU ARE FAITHFUL IN THE LITTLE THINGS THEN YOU WILL BE FAITHFUL IN THE LARGE ONES. ” LUKE 16:10

Being good and strong at doing the little things in life are the keys to being successful. If you are starting a new job it is important that you learn from the ground up. It is the same with trusting our Lord. He gives us all the opportunities we need to learn from the ground up. It seems to be human nature to want to start at the top and be successful from the beginning. That is nearly impossible. God has made it clear that we must be successful in the smaller things and then we can be trusted with the larger things. It isn’t hard to see others who are setting back and believing God for a major healing in their life while at the same time cannot trust him for the smallest of details in their life. To our God in heaven trust is trust no matter the size. But to us, we must build trust and to build trust we must start small and work up. We must be faithful in trusting the Lord for our daily bread as well as healing for our bodies. We must be able to trust him for our finances as well as trusting him for a large miracle in our life. Proverbs 3:5-6 tells us: TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL OF YOUR HEART AND LEAN NOT UNTO YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING BUT IN ALL OF YOUR WAYS ACKNOWLEDGE HIM AND HE SHALL DIRECT YOUR PATHS. ” He says that we should go to him and trust him in all of our ways not just in some of our ways. It is important that we have great faith and with great faith we develop great trust in all of our Lord’s promises. Remember, if we are faithful in the little things in life we will be trusted with the greater things as well.
