A steward is a person that has the responsibility to take care of things that
belongs to another. Did you know that God gave you something that belongs to
Him, that you must give account for?
Genesis 2:7;
Ezekiel 18:4;
Hebrews 9:27.
Accountability means to be liable to be called on to explain your actions or
behavior. We’re all accountable in some form or fashion. Children are
accountable to their parents. Employees are accountable to their employer, and
most importantly we are accountable to God -
Matthew 12:36-37;
Romans 14:12.
IT IS REQUIRED IN STEWARDS OF GOD, THAT A MAN BE FOUND FAITHFUL
In I Corinthians 4:2, the Word of God teaches it’s required in stewards that a
man be found faithful. Which means the servant of God is unwavering and not
compromising when it comes to doing what God has said -
Hebrew 11:6. The
faithful won’t allow circumstances to separate him from God’s –
Romans 8:35-39.
Being a faithful steward will require much consistency, steadfastness, and the
never give up attitude – John 8:31-32;
I Corinthians 15:58.
There will be some that will not desire to fulfill their responsibility. There
will be people that want to do whatever they desire and forsake their duty to
God, and expect everything to be alright in that day of accountability –
Proverbs 14:12;
Matthew 7:13-14.
EVERY ONE OF US SHALL GIVE ACCOUNT OF HIMSELF TO GOD
All of us, it doesn’t matter who we are, or what position we have in life,
we
will all stand before God and will either receive a reward or punishment
according to your work at you have done -
II Corinthians 5:10. Therefore, let us
straighten up and perform our duty that God has called us to –
Ecclesiastes
12:13-14.
When you give account to God, you want to be able to tell God how you suffered
continually to teach the Word of truth, and how you extended love and compassion
to all. We want to be able to say what the Apostle Paul said in
II Timothy
4:7-8.
Jesus suffered and died on the cross that you might have life. Why not come to
Him by submitting you life to Him, having your sins washed away, never
remembered by God again –
Matthew 11:28-30.
