When you mention the word  Stewardship most people think of money.  However, God calls us to stewardship in other areas of life.  Have you ever thought about stewardship of your faith?  The above scripture from Romans gives us good instruction on how to handle our day to day life and how not to be conformed to this world.  Stewardship of our faith comes down to this, managing what God has given you according to God's instructions.  We actually have a responsibility to walk in, and grow in the knowledge of God.  (2 Peter 3:17 & 18)

 

How about stewardship of our families?  Raising our kids to know God and teaching them according to God's Word.  How about honoring our fathers and our mothers.  Maybe you have spiritual fathers and mothers, step fathers and step mothers, or others who are not blood but are like our real parents.  We have a responsibility to steward those relationships according the the Word.

 

Here it comes...Stewardship of our money.  The Word tells us to tithe..  that is a 10th.  Did you know that 10 in God's number system is the number of testing?  The tithe is a test of trust.  Do you believe that God can do more with 10 percent than you can do with 90?  Malachi 3:10 tells us that if we obey the Word about tithing that God will open the windows of Heaven and pour you out a blessing that there is not enough room to contain it.  I'll take that!

 

Consider Stewardship of your faith, family and finances. God can be trusted and His promises are true.
