*PROVE YOURSELF FAITHFUL*

_(You’re A Custodian Of Kingdom Resources)_

*TO THE BIBLE:*
*Luke 16:11 NLT*
_“And if you are untrustworthy about worldly wealth, who will trust you with the true riches of heaven?”_

*LET’S TALK*

Imagine being trusted with your parents’ car for the first time. They don’t hand you the keys just because you asked—they watched how you handled your bicycle, then maybe a scooter, then short errands. Trust grows with responsibility. God works the same way with us.

From the words of Jesus in our opening verse, if you’re not faithful with earthly riches, you won’t be entrusted with heavenly treasures. That tells us something important: how you handle money and resources really matters to God. Your attitude toward money is a test. God observes how you manage what’s already in your hands to know what more He can trust you with. In Christ, we are stewards—God trusts with His resources. Everything that comes to you—your allowance, gifts, skills, time, ideas, opportunities, and even favour—is a trust from God. None of it is accidental. God expects you to handle what He gives you with Kingdom purpose.

The Bible says, *“As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God”* (1 Peter 4:10 NKJV). This includes finances. Being a good financial steward means being responsible. It means understanding that what you have isn’t just for spending on yourself, but for making an impact for God’s Kingdom.

Financial stewardship is aligning your resources with God’s plan—supporting the Gospel, helping others, and advancing God’s work around the world. It’s not about hoarding or wasting, but about using wisely. Stewardship requires wisdom, planning, and consistency. Whether it’s a small allowance, a gift, or income from a business idea, treat it as something valuable. Honour the Lord with it. When God sees that you’re faithful in little things, He increases your capacity and entrusts you with more—both spiritually and materially.

*GO DEEPER*

*2 Corinthians 9:6-10* But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. *7* Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. *8* And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: *9* (As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. *10* Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;)

*Proverbs 3:9-10* Honour the Lord with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: *10* So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.

*PRAY*

_Dear Father, thank you for making me a steward of Kingdom wealth. I handle all you’ve given me with wisdom and integrity. I align my resources with your will, and I’m found faithful in little and in much. I declare that I’m a channel of blessings to my world, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.._

*DAILY BIBLE READING*

*ONE YEAR*
John 8:31-47, 1 Kings 22

*TWO YEAR*
Mark 11:1-11, Numbers 21

*ACT*
Intentionally use one thing God has given you—your money, time, or talent—to make a difference for His Kingdom.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

MONDAY AUGUST 26TH 2024 EXTRICATED FROM DEATH …who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel (2 Timothy 1:10).  PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  The Bible records that in ancient times, humans lived for exceptionally long periods with lifespans exceeding 900 years. However, as sin increased, lifespans diminished. Genesis 6:3 says because of sin, man's lifespan was limited to 120 years. Moses, in his psalms, made an observation that due to sin, the typical lifespan of man was seventy years or eighty for those who were stronger. Even in old age, man’s life was filled with toil and sorrow, ultimately ending in death (Psalm 90:8-10). The Lord Jesus, however, came to address the root cause of this limitation, which is sin. Through His sacrifice, He provided salvation from sin and made eternal life possible. Eternal life includes “deathlessness.” When you were born again, you passed from death to life (John 5:24). Recall what we read in our them...

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

TUESDAY, JULY 1ST 2025 CUSTODIANS OF A MESSAGE THAT WORKS For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  The Gospel of Jesus Christ that we preach is a message that truly works. It’s a message that produces undeniable results for everyone who believes it. It’s the reason you must be quick and bold to share it with others. I remember talking to a man who had a very severe heart condition. The doctors had diagnosed him with heart failure and said he needed a transplant. But as I shared the Gospel with him, I said, “While I’m talking with you, there’ll be a change in your heart. All you have to do is believe what I’m telling you; just believe and give me a few minutes of your attention.” He agreed. So, I kept talking to him, sharing with him the words of life. After about 15 minutes, I said to him, “It’s done.” And he replied, “Yes; it’s done.” The next test conducted on him ...
