Be Trustworthy In Little Things - All The Word for Today Daily Devotionals for 2024

‘Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much.' Luke 16:10 NIV (2011 Edition)
JESUS SAID: ‘Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much. So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else's property, who will give property of your own?' (vv. 10-12 NIV 2011 Edition). God won't promote you beyond your current level of competence and commitment. Indeed, He'll keep bringing you back to these two things until you get them right. As you walk with Him, He'll increase your faith by testing you in settings that require only a little faith. And if you pass, He'll expose you to circumstances that require more faith. Each time you prove your willingness to trust Him at a higher level, He will reveal a little more of Himself and entrust to you a greater measure of blessing. That's how it works. Every small step of faith leads to a deeper, richer and more rewarding relationship with Him. When Michelangelo was painting the frescoes in the Sistine Chapel, he spent endless hours lying on the scaffolding perfecting the details. It was a miserable job. A student, curious about why the renowned sculptor took such pains with details that could only be seen from a distance, asked, ‘Who will know whether or not it's perfect?' The master artist replied, ‘I will!'. And so will your Master - Jesus! What you're doing today matters. It's the determining factor in what God will call you to do tomorrow. So be trustworthy in little things.
