TRUST IS CAPITAL-2

Text: 2King 22:7

But don't require the construction supervisors to keep account of the money they receive, for they are honest and trustworthy men."

So many are stranded in life simply because they have depleted all their 'Trust-capital'.

To break the Trust people have in you, is like breaking the pillars holding a house.

In our text, account was not required of the construction supervisors because they were honest and trustworthy men. This goes to say that, they must have had a track record of honest dealings in the past.

These men had wisely invested their 'trust-capital' in all their relationships.

One of the benefits and dividends of their past faithful dealings with people was that account was not being required from them anymore. Whatever they do is received in good faith by all . No one doubts whatever they say or do.

They have proven themselves worthy of unconditional trust by all.

When there is a mistrust in any relationship, check it- there must have been a breach in trust somewhere in the past.

*Trust is built and earn over time, but it can be shattered within a second.* And, Once it is destroyed, you will need more time, energy and wisdom to gain it back, if it can be gained back at all.

Settle it in your heart that from now on you will be dealing faithfully in all your relationships (both with God and man).

Trust is your currency, build it and invest it wisely. It is the only currency that must not be spent at any point in time.

Even Jesus had to come into trust with the Father before all things can be committed into his hands. He declared that all power on earth and in heaven has been given to Him (Mathew 28:18-19) after He had died and rose again. He gained and kept the Father's trust to the very end.

He got the name that is higher than every other name after He gained the Father's Trust. (Philippians 2:9-10).

Stop breaking trust everywhere and be expecting Grace to speak for you, rather receive grace to keep trust, just as our Lord Jesus received grace in the garden of Gethsemane and He kept the Father's trust in Him.(Mathew 26:39).

Bible Reading :

2 Kings 22:1-7.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text: 1 Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things. *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy 4:8. You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy 4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy 6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life. When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text : Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware. However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called believers. That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew 7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.* Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
