TEXT: Matthew 25:26

"But his lord answered and said to him, 'You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed. 

Today we shall be looking at the second servant that our Lord Jesus Christ referred to as being wicked.

In another parable, Jesus called a servant who has refused to multiply the talent committed into his hands, a wicked servant.

In the same vein, the Lord expects that you would also multiply Whatever gift He has deposited into your life.

If you do not profit with the gift you have received from the LORD  for His kingdom, then you may also be described as a wicked servant. 

A wicked servant is one who digs the ground and hides away the gift of God upon his life. He is one who sees the LORD as an unjust and unfaithful master who reaps from where He does not sow. He sees the LORD as one who gathers where He has not scattered seed. A wicked servant is a fearful servant, who is not willing to go on an adventure for the Lord and with the Lord. 

Such is not willing to take any risk for his master. He is not occupying  till the LORD returns.

Matthew 25:24-25 sums up the story of the wicked servant thus: "Then he who had received the one talent came and said, 'Lord, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed. And I was afraid, and went and hid your talent in the ground. Look, there you have what is yours.' 

 *There is a high tendency for people with seemingly negligible gifts to abandon such.  They forget that the gift multiplies through active trading and not by mere keeping it.* 

 *'For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away.(Matthew 25:29)* 


 *BIBLE READING:* 

Matthew 25: 14-29.

 *PRAYER FOCUS:* 

Father God, please give me the grace to trade with all the gifts you've given me for the gain of your kingdom in Jesus name.

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
