David Jeremiah Devotional 4 September 2019 – FAITHFUL IN LITTLE

David Jeremiah Devotional 4 September 2019

Theme For David Jeremiah Devotional 4 September 2019 – Faithful in Little, Faithful in Much

His lord said to him, “Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.”
Matthew 25:21

 Recommended Reading: Genesis 41:41-43

Prior to the modern age of education and opportunity, it was understood that starting at the bottom, and working your way up, was the norm. It was called apprenticeship, the period in which a young person would demonstrate talent, skill, and potential for the future. Today, few people want to start at the bottom. They sometimes leave college or graduate school and expect to be given the corner office.

Joseph eventually made it to the top in Egypt—he was “set … over all the land of Egypt” (Genesis 41:42). In modern terms, Pharaoh was the president and Joseph was the vice-president. Not bad for someone who entered Egypt as a teenaged slave. Joseph was promoted because of his faithfulness at two lesser jobs: steward of Potiphar’s house and “warden” of the prison (in which he was incarcerated). Because Joseph was faithful in small things, he was made “ruler over many things” (Matthew 25:21).

Let God be responsible for your promotion while you are responsible for your faithfulness. Faithfulness in little things leads to responsibility for many things.

When faithfulness is most difficult, it is most necessary.
