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.’

Prayer

Faithful God, thank You for all that You have done for us. We are so blessed by You. Day in and day out, You fill the whole earth with Your mighty works. You continue to fulfill Your promises written in the Holy Bible. Praise be to You for who You are, O Lord. Be honored and be lifted on high. May Your blessed will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Scripture Reading

Read aloud (together if applicable).

R-40 FAITHFULNESS 忠心

Matthew 24:45-47; Luke 16:10-13; Revelation 2:10; 1 Corinthians 15:57-58 (NKJV)

 

Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season? Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing. Assuredly, I say to you that he will make him ruler over all his goods.

 

He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much. Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? And if you have not been faithful in what is another man’s, who will give you what is your own?

 

"No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon."

 

Do not fear any of those things which you are about to suffer. Indeed, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and you will have tribulation ten days. Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life.

 

But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

Song of Response

Worship Through Prayer

  1. Lord, let me live a faithful life for You. Help me not to waste the limited time You've entrusted to me each day doing nothing or unnecessary things. Teach me to value this short life on earth by making it meaningful and pleasing to You always. 

  2. Remind me that I only have this moment. I do not know what later will bring. My life may end sooner than I thought. Teach me to keep eternity in mind and strive to be faithful in this short earthly life. 

  3. Lord, the harvest is still plentiful. There is still so much work to be done. Help me to remain faithful and diligently do all the work that You have entrusted to me. May I also be able to encourage my brothers and sisters in the Lord to be faithful as I live and serve You faithfully.
