Be a Faithful Steward of God
Memory verse: - Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful. (1Cor 4:2)
Bible Reading: - Numbers 29: 1 – 40
Message
Moses as the steward, agent or overseer in the household of God was faithful to God in delivering every message of God to his people, Israel. And such way of his life was found in the concluding verse of our text today And Moses told the children of Israel according to all that the LORD commanded Moses. (verse 40). Notice the word “ALL”, he did not diminish from it or told the people what they love to hear; He declared the whole counsel of God to them, Oh what a reliable minister of God.
Every believer is a steward of God and it is required of thee that you must be found faithful at home and abroad like Daniel in Babylon, Joseph in Egypt and Paul withersoever he went.
As a believer you have your children as heritage of God to care for physically and spiritually, students as a teacher, relatives as the only saved one among them; church of God as a Pastor. The list is endless; you just have to be faithful in discharging your God given responsibilities to every category of human being under your care for that is what God wants. Give them the spiritual and physical nourishment needed by them as at when due.
Do not be a man pleaser, but endeavour to please God alone and that by declaring the whole counsels of God everywhere you find yourself.
Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men. For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God. (Acts 20:31 – 32)

It pays to faithfully live by the word and also declare it in its totality to them that hear thee; you will be free from the blood of men and be justified by God of heaven who will give to everyman according to as his work shall be. Henceforth, determine to become a faithful minister or steward of God like Jesus Christ who is also faithful to God the father even till the point of death.
You have no excuse to do less in this better covenant of ours; if Moses can be that faithful in the old testament, we can do more in this dispensation of grace.
As you decide to become a trustworthy and faithful steward of God henceforth, I pray God gives you all the needed support to be faithful to the end.
Confession of the Day
I will be faithful to him that had called me till the end, whatever the devil and his cohort may do and the faithful God will not leave or forsake me; I believe he will support me to the end.
Prayer Points

Lord, keep me firm in thee to the very end; help me not to meddle with them that are given to change. Let me not cringe or shy away from my duty post; make me as the mar clay to that which seems right unto thee.

STERLING LEADERSHIP

Image
D.C.L.M. DAILY   MANNA WEDNESDAY 9TH MAY, 2018 STERLING LEADERSHIP TEXT: GENESIS 47:13-31 KEY VERSE: “And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we shall be Pharaoh’s servants” (GENESIS 47:25). “No one needs aspire to leadership in the work of God who is not willing to pay the price greater than his/her contemporaries and colleagues are willing to pay. The more effective the leader is, the higher the price to be paid”, said J Oswald. Joseph stands out as an enduring proof of what the grace of God can do for a perfect, upright and diligent child of God. The expected season of the lean kine finally came. Pharaoh was prepared only because of Joseph’s astuteness in the management of the trust conferred upon him. He started to alleviate the suffering of masses by exchanging corn for money, then corn for land. In an uncanny display of shrewdness, he ultimately transferred the national wealth and citizens to the crown and saved ...

WELL OF LIFE

March 3 WELL OF LIFE The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life . . . . — PROVERBS 10:11 Immediately after the birth of our son and daughter, I took those little ones into my hands and said, “Lord, I thank You for this child. Because I know the Bible, I realize it is my responsibility to train up this child in the way it should go, and when it is old, it will not depart from it. “I realize Your Word says to bring our children up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, and I’m going to do that. I know that children are taught in two ways: By precept and by example. So I’m going to live right in front of this child. I will set the right example. Then, too, I know that you can have what you say, so I say over this child that it will grow up strong physically, without sickness and without disease; it will be alert mentally; and stalwart spiritually.” Our children grew up without sickness and disease. I never prayed a prayer that they would be saved. I never prayed a prayer that they...

PARALYZED

April 15 PARALYZED Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil. — HEBREWS 2:14 . . . That He might paralyse him that held the dominion of death, That is the Adversary. — HEBREWS 2:14 (Rotherham) Jesus put to naught the hosts of darkness! He paralyzed their deathdealing power! And when Jesus met John the Revelator on the Isle of Patmos, Jesus said, “I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Rev. 1:18). Keys represent authority. Jesus conquered Satan and stripped him of his authority. Jesus was the Master of all hell! But Jesus did not conquer Satan for Himself. He conquered him for us. It was as though you and I personally had met Satan and had conquered him, stripped him of his authority, and stood as master over him. Confession: Jesus is my Head. Jesus i...
