REWARD FOR FAITHFULNESS!
Evangeline Paul Dhinakaran
My dearly beloved,
The Lord desires to bless His children with more and more talents and give them everything in abundance. That is why the scripture says, Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him (Matthew 13:12).
Let us be willing to use our talents for the Lord in addition to praying, filled with the Spirit. In Mark 12th chapter verses 41-44, we read about the poor widow who put two mites into the treasury. All the rich people had cast into the treasury out of their abundance. But, the widow put in all that she had. Jesus was watching this. He says, Assuredly, I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all those who have given to the treasury (Mark 12:43).
The Lord has spoken about the talents in the same manner. The one who received five talents gained five more. The one who received two talents gained two more. But the man who received one talent, dug a hole in the ground and hid his masters money. When the master returned and asked him as to why he did it, he answered, Master, I knew that you are a hard man. So I was afraid and hid your talent in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you. The master commended those who gained more talents. He said, You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your masters happiness. But he threw the one who hid his talent in the ground into the darkness where there was weeping and gnashing of teeth (Matthew 25:14-29).
God will certainly bless all those who use their talents for His glory and spend their time for Him just as He blessed those who received the five talents and two talents. Because they are sowing their money in Gods ministry, He will certainly bless them in an abundant measure. My dear ones, our Lord Jesus loves the faithful heart. When we are faithful in the little things, He will make us rulers over many things. He will do great wonders through us. Now is the time to arise and shine for God. May the Lord bless you according to Proverbs 28:20, A faithful man will abound with blessings...
Prayer:
Loving Lord Jesus,
You are the Living Lord Who fills me with Your abundant blessings. I surrender my life to You. Thank You for the talent and the blessings You have granted to me. Help me to use my talents to wipe away the tears of others, Lord. Fill me with Your strength and goodness. Give me the grace to depend on You and to experience Your blessings all the days of my life. Give me grace to be faithful to You at all times. I thank You for all the blessings that You have for me.
In Your mighty name, I pray.
Amen.
