Like me, I am sure that you desire for something great to happen in and through your life? It is essential to understand that greatness does not come through a stroke of luck but a willingness to be faithful with what God has called you to do! It is easy to get caught in the trap of wanting to do something big for God while ignoring the LITTLE THINGS he asks us to do. Like being in the Word, tithing, being faithful in prayer, serving in his church, loving those around us, and just believing when life makes no sense. Listen to the words of Jesus; they are your key to breakthrough!

Luke 16:10-13 “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. 11So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? 12And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else’s property, who will give you property of your own? 13“No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”

With God, it is the little things that count! In this parable, God is talking specifically about money, but it applies in all areas. God tests our hearts to see if we will put him first in the seemingly insignificant things. When we give our full attention and utmost effort to the little things, God knows he can trust us with the big things. If you work hard for minimum wage, you will assuredly work hard for ten times that amount.

Your everyday life is where God tests you to see how far he can take you. The little choices of working out, showing up on time, being willing to give a little more than what is expected, etc., make all the difference. One of the key areas God tests us is in our money. Jesus said, “Where your money is, there your heart will be also.” Mat 6:21  We work harder for money than we do anything else in all of our lives; therefore, what we do with that money is an accurate thermometer of what is most important to us.

Does God have preeminence in your life? Does God come first in your time, your passion, your money, etc? The price of your future is your present! May you be faithful with the LITTLE THINGS God has given you, and watch the blessing of God overtake you. Are you ready for God to do something great through your life?.... Yes?  Excellent!
