(Reworked SOAP from 2012)
SCRIPTURE: Luke (NIV) 16:10 “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.
11 So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?
12 And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else’s property, who will give you property of your own?
OBSERVATION: Here we see a progression from being faithful with little to becoming faithful with much. We see the progression from being faithful with temporary worldly wealth to becoming faithful with eternal wealth. There is the progression of working for others to working for one’s self.
Two words that have no limit: little and much. There is no amount too little to start. And these verses put no limit on much.
APPLICATION: I must be willing to start where I am and use what I have. I must keep aware that my future opportunities depend on my faithfulness today.
PRAYER: Lord, help me not to become discouraged about my present circumstances but keep faithful knowing that today is preparation for my future. Amen.
