Stewardship

Happy new week everyone, 

Stewardship! It's a Job, and that is what God gave man when He created him. Stewardship is the job of supervising or taking care of something, such as an organisation or property.

So, let me explain something. Man didn't create

anything when he was created. He met a completely created and perfect world when he was created, (ref.: Genesis 1:26-28). He was just given the key to manage the earth, period, which is Stewardship, (ref.: Genesis 2:15). But we see people craving things, begging God for things. I'm not saying asking God for situations to be settled is wrong, but when you getting the understanding that everything including yourself belongs to God, (ref.: 1 Corinthians 3:21, 23), it allows you to know how to submit to God, and be led by the Holy Spirit.

So, to be a steward is to follow a list of assignments given by the owner in order to properly manage what has been put in your care. And of course you would be properly taken care of, because even though you are His steward, you either His Son or Daughter, and He so loves you as Himself, (ref.: Matthew 6:33; Roman 8:14-16).

You are to ask the Lord what He wants you to do because you were created for an assignment, (ref.: Luke 11:9-13; James 1:5). The Lord God would then release what He has called you to do through the word of God (ref.: 1 Peter 3:12; 1 John 5:15). He ensures He gives certain signs of affirmation, and being a Son or Daughter of God, having the Spirit of Jesus in you, there is this conviction of the Holy Spirit in you, in line with the word of God to confirm what God wants you to do. And the Holy Spirit shows you the road map on what to do, and how to do it (ref.: Psalm 119:105). If there is anything that appears difficult, let Him know, and He would show you how to go about it.

Remember, nothing belongs to you, everything belongs to God. By being conscious of this, glorifying God comes first to your mind.

There is struggle in your life when you choose to do things by yourself because to do that you are already going outside outside assignment God gave you, and you feel the things you see belong to you, and you crave more, this is the sinful nature, and where we miss the mark, because we are not living the life God created us to be. So, it is sort like a sort of malfunction.

We all have been called into Stewardship. When you see your life as all things belongs to God, you allow humility to flow through you, and God uses those who are humble. Know your calling today, the new year comes with a lot of anxieties as we just want to achieve with having the original blue print from God. Know what He called you to do, and don't forget, you are His Steward, you all the stress leaves you because you believe He has paved the perfect way for your life.

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
