Luke 16:10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
What is faithfulness? What does faithfulness mean to you, and in your Christian walk? Faithfulness means that whatever you say you will do, you will do. When you are faithful, you are a trustworthy person and can be trusted with your word and when you are asked to do something.
Faithfulness as an employee, your Boss does not have wonder if you are going to show up for work. You just do, because that's what you do as an employee. And as a faithful boss/employer your employees don't have to wonder if they are going to get paid on payday. They just know, because they trust you in your faithfulness.
So what about as a Christian?
Faithfulness is found in the very heart of our Christian lifestyle. As leaders in the church we need to be able to be trusted. This comes by being faithful. First with little and more as we grow older in the Lord. We need to be setting the example to faithfulness to others in the church so that when they look at us or hear of us, they will know what faithfulness is, and that as a leader we can be trusted. This is what makes you a leader, that you have been proved to be faithful. First with little, then more. Only with faithfulness can we function properly as a team.
Comiting to faithfulness. Faithfulness does not come without commitment. You can only be faithful to someone or something if you are committed. If you are not committed then where is your motivation? Jesus calls us to be committed to our faith and our walk with him. When we are committed to Him we will be faithful in our walk as a Christian.
Luke 9:62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
It is only with commitment that we will be able to move forward and not look back. If you are not committed than how can you press on? So what Jesus is saying is... Be committed!
Continue on in your faith. This goes right with being committed. Which is why you must be committed first. Then you must continue on. Being committed to and attending the church meetings.
Hebrews 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. And continuing on just as Christ did...
Phillipians2:5-8 "Have this mind in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: who, existing in the form of God, counted not the being on an equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men; and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient {even} unto death, yea, the death of the cross."
So may I encourage you to be faithful in all that you do. In the work place, in your family, friendships, and in church meetings and fellowship.
