Be faithful!




Faithfulness is a must to continue to be led by the Holy Spirit. The Spirit guides us everyday not just every once in a while. We must be faithful to His leading. As we look at the early church we see faithfulness was a trademark!



1 Corinthians 4:2

2 Moreover it is required in stewards that one be found faithful.



1 Peter 4:10

10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.



If we are faithful in the small things the Spirit leads us to do then God will send bigger things to do knowing we were faithful in the little things! We must remember though that when God does give us bigger things to do remain humble because God does not need us to do anything! But He does want to use us!



Acts 17:24-25

24 “The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands. 25 And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else.



Let us be faithful my brothers and sisters in following the leading of the Holy Spirit in doing the work of the Lord!



Philippians 3:13-14

13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, 14 I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.



Jesus showed us the way!



Hebrews 12:2

2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.



If we are to be on fire for God through the Holy Spirit we must remain faithful and let our light shine!



Matthew 5:14-16

14 “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
