Scripture :“His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.” — Matthew 25:21
Devotion: Do you feel like you deserve bigger and better right now? Maybe it’s more money, a bigger house, a promotion at work, or a leadership role at church. But before asking for more, ask yourself this:How well am I managing what I already have? How grateful am I?Your honest answer to these questions may reveal why you don’t have more yet.
If God handed some of us a million dollars today, it might be gone before the year ends; because we struggle to manage even $100. Some are late to the jobs they already have, but want to be the boss. Some haven’t learned to save or budget, but are praying for financial overflow. The truth is, God blesses us with more when we prove to be good stewards of the small things He has entrusted to us.
Gratitude is part of stewardship. We don’t want to act like spoiled children; asking for seconds before we’ve even finished what’s already on our plate. Instead, we must learn to thank God for what we have right now. When we do, He sees our faithfulness and prepares us for greater blessings. As today’s scripture says, if you are faithful over the little, you will one day be made ruler over much.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for the blessings You’ve already given me. Forgive me for the times I have been ungrateful or careless with what I have. Teach me to be a good steward and to show gratitude daily. Help me to be faithful over the small things so that I can be trusted with greater. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Amen 🙏🏾
Thank you God for what I now have and for what’s to come🙌🏾🙌🏾
LORD teach me your be faithful over what YOU have entrusted to me. I repent for not being a good steward. In JESUS name. Amen🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
