For every beast of the forest is Mine, the cattle on a thousand hills. I know every bird of the mountains, and everything that moves in the field is Mine. If I were hungry I would not tell you, for the world is Mine, and all it contains.

Matthew 25:14-30 (the Parable of the Talents)
For it is just a man about to go on a journey, who called his own slaves and entrusted his possessions to them. “To one he gave five talents, to another, two, and to another, one, each according to his own ability; and he went on his journey.

Immediately the one who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and gained five more talents. In the same manner the one who had received the two talents gained two more. But he who received the one talent went away, and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money. “Now after a long time the master of those slaves came and settled accounts with them.

The one who had received the five talents came up and brought five more talents, saying, ‘Master, you entrusted five talents to me. See, I have gained five more talents.’ His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful slave you were faithful with a few things, I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master.

’ Also the one who had received the two talents came up and said, ‘Master, you entrusted two talents to me. See, I have gained two more talents.’ His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful slave. You were faithful with a few things, I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master.

’ And the one also who had received the one talent came up and said, ‘Master, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you did not sow and gathering where you scattered no seed. ‘And I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what is yours.

’ But his master answered and said to him, ‘You wicked, lazy slave, you knew that I reap where I did not sow and gather where I scattered no seed. ‘Then you ought to have put my money in the bank, and on my arrival I would have received my money back with interest. ‘Therefore take away the talent from him, and give it to the one who has the ten talents.

’ For to everyone who has, more shall be given, and he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have shall be taken away. Throw out the worthless slave into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Luke 12:42-44
And the Lord said, “Who then is the faithful and sensible steward, whom his master will put in charge of his servants, to give them their rations at the proper time? “Blessed is that slave whom his master finds so doing when he comes. “Truly I say to you that he will put him in charge of all his possessions.

Luke 12:47-48
And that slave who knew his master’s will and did not get ready or act in accord with his will, will receive many lashes, but the one who did not know it, and committed deeds worthy of a flogging, will receive but few. From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and to whom they entrusted much, of him they will ask all the more.

Luke 16:9-11
And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by means of the wealth of unrighteousness, so that when it fails, they will receive you into the eternal dwellings.

“He who is faithful in a very little thing is faithful also in much; and he who is unrighteous in a very little thing is unrighteous also in much.

Therefore if you have not been faithful in the use of unrighteous wealth, who will entrust the true riches to you?

The definition of Christian stewardship

Lets look at the actual definition of stewardship.

Stewardship:

1: the office, duties, and obligations of a steward

2: the conducting, supervising, or managing of something ; especially : the careful and responsible management of something entrusted to one’s care

I how it says “managing of something.” To me this implies that we have decisions to make and are responsible for that which we are stewards over. Just a manager of business is responsible for his/her department and employees, so we are with all that has been entrusted to us.

So what are we actually stewards over?

Personally, I believe it applies to everything we have been given. Our time, our money, our God given gifts and abilities, our influence, it all comes from God. There are lots of stewardship verses that show us how we should act, but my favorite is the Parable of the Talents since it gives such a great illustration of what a good steward does.

Put simply, the good stewards were the ones who took “risks” and action in order to multiply what they had been given. The bad steward was the one who fear decided not to take a risk and was called lazy as well.

This reminds me of another scripture…

Luke 12:48

…From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.

How should “stewardship living” affect our lives?

Our finances tend to be the key area that people refer to when speaking of stewardship. I think the main reason is that often money is one of the most difficult things for people to give. At least for me that used to be the case. I was okay giving my energy, time, or sharing my abilities, but money was not something that I was interested in giving away. That is probably why God had to work on me for so long to help me lose my attitude!

After  you’ve meditated on these scriptures you can pray the following prayer and wait for the Lord to direct your steps regarding your business.

  You say I am to come boldly before your throne to receive mercy and grace in my time of need and I am in deep need at this time (Hebrew 4:16) I ask now that you will reveal to me all the things that I need to do to make some thing right regarding this business which you’ve given me (wait for a few seconds in silence and God will show you what you need to make right, write them down so that you don’t forget).  Thank you for the employees that you’ve given me and I pray that you will continue to provide for them through me.  Lord I lift up this business to you and I dedicate it to you to be used for Your glory.  I ask that you bless it financially and show me how to be a good steward with what you’ve already given me and will continue to give me (Matthew 13:12).  I pray that now you will release to me action steps that I need to take to get this business on track to prosper this year.  I am remembering Lord that you are the one who gives me the power to be successful.  Your word in Joshua 1:8 says that if I meditate upon your word day and night and do not depart from it You will make my way prosperous and successful.  I thank you for this truth and I thank you for the scriptures that you will use to impart wisdom and understanding. I move forward by faith in honesty being fair and balanced in all of the business affairs because I know honesty and righteousness brings you glory and sets me apart from other businesses (Proverbs 16:11).  Lord I pray you grant me and my employees favor to get new customers and that all the bills from this business will be paid according to the glorious riches in Christ Jesus.  I pray for your divine provisions and a miraculous financial breakthrough in Jesus name, Amen.

Top 7 Bible Verses About Stewardship

Prayer To Be A Good Steward of My Wealth

Every one of us have been given talents, time, and treasure so what have we done with these and what will we do with them since we are all stewards of God.

Matthew 25:29 “For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away.”

Parables are earthly stories that teach a heavenly concept and this is what Jesus was doing in the Parable of the Talents (Matt 25:14-30) and the man going on the journey is ly Jesus Himself Who gives His servants talents (Matt 25:14) and “To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability.

Then he went away” (Matt 25:15). It should be noted that the talent is a monetary value of money (as the Greek says) and is equivalent to about twenty years labor, so it’s a significant amount of money we’re talking about and this parable is about the stewardship that God has entrusted to us with what we’ve been given.

One servant doubled his five talents to ten (Matt 25:20) and the master says “Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master” (Matt 25:21).

The one who received two talents also doubled his talents and the master also said “Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much.

Enter into the joy of your master” (Matt 25:23) but the one who had been given one buried and or did nothing with it at all and the master says “You wicked and slothful servant! You knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I scattered no seed? Then you ought to have invested my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received what was my own with interest. So take the talent from him and give it to him who has the ten talents” (Matt 25:26-29). The point is that Jesus expects us to use our earthly wealth for His kingdom purposes as He is the Master, otherwise what we have will be taken away and given to others.

First Peter 4:10 “As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace.”

I believe that Peter is talking about gifts of the Spirit because of the context of this chapter (1st Pet 4) and the gifts are not for our own purposes but for the purposes of the church; to serve one another. If we don’t use our gifts, we might lose what we have, as referenced in Matthew 25, because we’ve not been good stewards with what God has entrusted us with.

Titus 1:6-8 “If anyone is above reproach, the husband of one wife, and his children are believers and not open to the charge of debauchery or insubordination. For an overseer, as God’s steward, must be above reproach. He must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain, 8 but hospitable, a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined.”

An overseer is a shepherd overseeing a flock and in this case, it is the church that the overseer (or pastor) is over and he is a steward, God’s steward, and must live a life that is above reproach, otherwise he is not fit to pastor a church at all. The behavioral expectations that are listed are prohibitions for a pastoral position as God’s steward.

First Timothy 1:3-5 “As I urged you when I was going to Macedonia, remain at Ephesus so that you may charge certain persons not to teach any different doctrine, nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies, which promote speculations rather than the stewardship from God that is by faith. The aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.”

The fact that this instruction from Paul comes from a pastoral epistle (letter) shows that, once again, the pastor is responsible for the flock but this is not about the pastor’s behavior necessarily but about the charge given to him by God to rebuke those who teach different doctrines than what is found in Scripture because some false teachings were devoted to myths, fables, and endless (and useless) genealogies that are only speculative at best. Once again this shows that being a good steward isn’t always about money nor is it only about the gifts and proper use of the Spiritual gifts God gives to every believer, including the pastor.

Ephesians 3:1-3 “For this reason I, Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles— assuming that you have heard of the stewardship of God’s grace that was given to me for you, how the mystery was made known to me by revelation, as I have written briefly.”

What does Paul mean by “the stewardship of God’s grace that was given to” him? This is the gospel itself and God holds Paul responsible for the revelation that he was given. Every one of us is also responsible for what has been given to us by God’s revelation, mainly from Scripture, and we are going to be held responsible for what we’ve done with the knowledge of God’s amazing grace.

Luke 16:11 “If then you have not been faithful in the unrighteous wealth, who will entrust to you the true riches?”

This verse returns back to the thought given in the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 25.

If we aren’t faithful in what God has entrusted to us, even if it’s little, then why would we ever expect that he would entrust us with true riches? Obviously He wouldn’t because to he or she who has been given much, much will be required or more specifically as Jesus said “Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required, and from him to whom they entrusted much, they will demand the more” (Luke 12:48).

Second Corinthians 9:6-7 “The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”

If a farmer sows sparing, the farmer must realize that he or she won’t reap much but if they sow bountifully, they can expect a more bountiful harvest. It is a cause and effect. God doesn’t need your money or want your offerings as much as He does your heart which is why a cheerful giver doesn’t give compulsion or give reluctantly but will give cheerfully or joyfully.

Conclusion

Jesus said “Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them.

” (Matt 13:12) so which are you? Are you a good steward? Then you will receive a great reward but if not, you will receive little or next to nothing. As for me, I would rather hear Jesus say “Well done, good and faithful servant.

You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master” (Matt 25:23). I suspect that if you’re a believer, that’s what you want to hear too.

Bible Verses About Stewardship That Will Challenge You!

Prayer To Be A Good Steward of My Wealth

One of my favorite Bible verses about stewardship is: And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. ~ 2 Corinthians 9:8

Since the beginning of time, God has been laying out the guidelines of good stewardship, when He gave man dominion over the whole earth.

All that was created was for man to use as resources to create, build, and invest in all for the glory and praise of our Creator. Sometimes we feel that what we’ve worked for and earned is ours, and that’s final.

In reality, that which we grow, produce, and make is only allocated to us as payment on a temporary basis. It is ultimately His and should be used for His purposes.

Being a good steward is an important Christian principal and does not just refer to money. It is a steward’s responsibility to manage or take care of something. It is not theirs, but they are in charge of handling it well. Since God is the owner of everything, we are the stewards who have been charged with managing everything he has placed in our care.

Bible verses about stewardship admonish us to be in control of our time, honor our relationships, be in integrity during our business dealings, and our value our personal finances as an act of worship.

By making God’s blessings a priority in all that we do, we glorify Him in how we conduct ourselves.

Living out what these Bible verses about stewardship on a daily basis takes planning, preparation, and patience, but once implemented, this discipline and good work is an amazing reflection of our faith.

May these Bible verses about stewardship help you in your life daily, giving you a guideline of how to manage all that you have been given. May God bless you abundantly!
