John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

John 10:30, 34-35 “I and my Father are one . . . Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? If He called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken“

Psalms 82:6 “I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are the children of the most High “

Genesis 26:12-14 “. . . And the man Became great, and went forward, and grew until he Became very great . . .“

The Act of Believing is made available to all mankind. It is an integral default in men. Man’s existence today has a lot to do with whom and what He believes in. Whom and What you believe in determines how your destiny is being shaped and moulded. It’s for this cause people of all races, nations, genders and generations are in one conflict or the other, either on personal levels or general levels. God wants us to exercise Faith in whatsoever we Believe Him for. Believing God is a characteristic of Faithfulness, but exercising Faith on what you believe Him for, it is your human spirit responding on your belief on the word of God. That is, your human spirit acting on the word of God.

FAITH: Is acting on the Belief

BELIEVE: Is the characteristics of Faithfulness

Faith must be acted. God’s blessings upon your life depend on your Faith. Fear is a demon spirit and is the opposite of faith and the devil’s instrument to paralyse your Faith in God.

2 Timothy 1:7 “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”

By Faith, you become whom and what you Believe. Abraham believed God and it was counted or reckoned unto him for righteousness, he became what he believed of himself in God. Faith is the seeing eye of the act of Believing - Galatians 3:6-9 (Romans 4:17-25). The two blind men believed the Word of Christ, they become (had) what they believed in Faith for - Matthew 9:29 (27-31). The act to believe and exercise faith is spiritual – Take time to Think or Ponder or Meditate on these things (Philippians 4:8).

Luke 18:1-8 “. . . And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?”

Luke 16:1-13 “. . . He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much. If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man’s, who shall give you that which is your own? No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon”.

As we turn into the eighth month of the year, I call to remembrance that God made all things in six days – on the seventh – He rested and on the eighth day, the empowered man with dominion mandate began to function in achieving the reason for His creation.

Today we live in an age where faithfulness to ourselves and to others is in great demand for creating an atmosphere that we can enjoy. Unfortunately we are so eager to demand faithfulness from others while we may not be faithful ourselves even in the least of things.

Hence I am grateful to the Holy Spirit that this month He has constrained me to challenge us on the need of achieving life goals through faithfulness. Hence the reason to set tasks and targets for oneself in making it be.

We need to know that our God is a faithful God. This is just one basic nature of God – FAITHFULNESS. We being His children cannot afford to live in any other way and expect to achieve greatness in life.

The Results of Being Faithful

Great admirable marriages, homes & businesses are not achieved merely from structural design but from faithful human hearts. The results of being faithful are the prosperity and good success that we all desire. When we make faithfulness an avenue of achieving life’s goals, we promote honesty, decency and healthy lifestyles.

In the scripture quoted at the beginning, Luke 18:7-8, Jesus asked a question about faithfulness. The word FAITH is translated ‘pistil’ in Greek, which denotes faithfulness in English. Jesus wondered how many would be faithful – to trust God and wait upon His Word – without seeking alternative solutions to life’s challenges. The 2^nd main text, Luke 16:1-13, shows the reason that many of us cannot achieve our goals. It is because we are not faithful in matters entrusted into our hands by others.

God’s Faithful Nature

In achieving life’s goals, it would be great for you to look at the nature of God regarding faithfulness.

1. God is faithful to Himself. 2Tim 2:13
2. God is faithful to His Word and promises. Heb 10:23
3. God is faithful to His relationship. 1 Corinth 1:9
4. God is faithful to forgive. 1 John 1:9
5. God is faithful in agreement. Deut 7:9
6. God is faithful to establish and deliver. 1 Cor 10:13, 2 Thess 3:3
7. God is faithful to accomplish His part in the assignment that he gives to us. 1 Thess 5:24
8. God is a faithful creator. 1 Peter 4 4:19 . . . and many more of our God.

Know full well that we are the offspring of God, the sheep of His pasture. Acts 17:28-29, Psalms 100:3. It then means that we can live a faithful life and achieve good successes. The other reason that we can achieve success is because we are the seed of Abraham – who was faithful and prospered. The same grace is available to us today in spite of our challenges to be faithful and to prosper. Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29. (See Genesis 13:2, 24:1)

Faithfulness Applied

1. A faithful employee – Whatever position you hold, God requires you to be faithful. Matt 24:45-51, Ephesians 6:5-8, 1 Peter 2;18-20, Col 3:22-25
2. A faithful employer – look after your staff well whatever the business. Ephesians 6:6-9, Col 4:1, Prov 11:24-26, Deut 10:17-18, Acts 10:34-35, Romans 2:11
3. Faithful in your relationships. This is a vital ingredient in enhancing a healthy society.
   

• Faithfulness in the kingdom business. As a minister, pastor, ministry worker etc, you cannot afford to attend to ministry work in the way that pleases you and at the same time want God’s backing. No adulterations of any sort will make God be a part of it. Faithfulness to God’s Word and commands is a prerequisite to achieving desired goals. 1 Cor 4:2, 2 Tim 2:1-2, Prov 27:23, John 21:15-17 (Numbers 12:7, Heb 3:2,5.)
• In marriage one cannot afford to be unfaithful and achieve with God. (1 Tim 3:11, Prov 31:10, Prov 20:6, Eph 5:21-33, 1 Peter 3:1-12).
• Faithfulness is also vital in a parent – child relationship. Eph 6:1-4, Col 3:20-21, Prov 22:6
• Faithfulness in friendships. Prov 27:6,10, Prov 17:17, Prov 18:24

Faithfulness Rewards

1. Abound with blessings. Prov 28:20
2. Abound with health. Prov 13:17, 2 Cor 5:20
3. A refresher for others. Prov 25:13
4. There will be increase and promotion. Matt 25:21,23
5. There will be eternal reward. Matt 25:21b, 23b

Finally, as one with an achievers’ mandate, I beckon on you to set task and target this month on how to walk in faithfulness if you want to partner with God. I pray you be found faithful in every area of your life through this month and thereafter.

Be Augustly PROSPERED!

In His World For His Glory
