Stewardship
"THE EARTH IS THE LORD'S AND THE FULLNESS THEROF; THE WORLD, AND THEY THAT DWELL THERIN." PSALMS 24:11
A Steward is actually a manager or superintendent of another s household. We are called to be stewards over all that God has blessed us with. Nothing that we have actually belongs to us. We are to be managers of these things until such time as Jesus comes again. We will have to give an account of our stewardship. Therefore, we must be careful of how we utilize our blessings. These blessings are mainly our time, our talent, and our treasury (money).
Time
Our time here on earth is very short, we must use it wisely. We must be prayerful concerning the use of the time that God has given us (Psalms 90:12, James 4:14)
Talent
As Christians we must recognize that all of our abilities come from God. We have natural gifts as well as spiritual gifts. We must willingly surrender them to God for His glory and honor. We all have at least one spiritual gift. Pray that God makes this gift (or gifts) known to you (1 Cor. 12:11-27, Eph 4:11-16). We need to develop the right attitude toward our spiritual gifts (Rom. 12:3-8).
