We are often working very hard to make money to live the life we want.
Many work long hours, second and third jobs, trying to make enough to live comfortably.
We share our great ideas, our talents, learn new skills, work over time, etc.
in hopes of being promoted on the job.
Matthew 25;20,21 "And he who had received the five talents came forward, bringing five talents more, saying "Master you delivered to me five talents, here I have made five talents more."
His master said to him, " Well done, good and faithful servant. Yu have been a faithful over a little, I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master."
It is when we show our selves to be good and faithful stewards over what we have, that we are promoted to greater.
You will not find an employer promoting someone whom they cannot depend, nor does well in his current position.
The same holds true regarding our many prayer request for greater, opportunities, financial status, and any and all other areas of achieving greatness.
If you are not a good steward over what you currently have, right where you currently are,
why should you expect a God full of wisdom to promote you with something greater?
If we don't pay our debts, but spend frivolously, and don't care about those less fortunate,
we are showing God that we can't handle what has been entrusted to us already, so are not ready to handle anything more.
Luke 16;10 " One who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much, and one who is dishonest
in a very little is also dishonest in much."
If you are looking to be promoted to greatness,
how are you handling what you have, right where you are now?
