GIFT OF JESUS: NOW WE HAVE FULL STEWARDSHIP OVER OUR LIVES

Dear friends in Christ, many times we do not find ourselves walking in full stewardship of ourselves because either we do not believe we can or we do not see how powerful and freeing it really is. We must understand how this ability is actually a gift of Jesus by freeing us from the old man we used to be. We have so much to be thankful for regarding what Jesus did but it will be even better way to honor Him with our lives when we step into and walk on what He has died and rose to give us. To open our eyes to what is truly possible when we walk in this gift of Jesus, in this post we will look at some of the benefits of doing so.

Benefits of walking in full stewardship of our lives:

1) When we are walking in this we have the ability to teach ourselves and turn ourselves towards the truth.

2) Other people do not have any control over how we are going to take our lives in God. Imagine, if people around us are not living in the truth and had the control over our lives to make us do something that is not right in God’s eyes!

3) We are truly free as we have the power to say yes to what is right and no to what is not.

4) We can freely live as per what God wants out of our lives.

5) We can seek God as much as we want and the way other people seek God has no influence over us. We are free to love God as much as we want. We can live out His commandments and we would be on the right path in His own eyes.

6) Single mindedness is the mark of person with full stewardship over himself or herself. They know how to hold firmly to God’s word.

7) Because we will have worked out how to keep ourselves in order as per the truth, we will not be tossed to and fro in our thoughts and actions. Our yes will be yes and our no will be no(Ephesians 4:14).

8) We will not stumble in anything we speak and do with our bodies. When we are able to bridle our tongue such that whatever comes out of our mouths is only life of God then we will have come to place of perfection(James 3:2). And this is true power!

9) Just as when our Father in heaven speaks something and it does not return to Him void and without having done what He sent it to do, at such a place anything we speak with our mouths will have the same effect(Isaiah 55:11).

10) When we are walking in this fully we will not easily get weighed down by matters of life. Only a person who is not walking in God-given stewardship will be prone to easily get affected by a situation in life or by people’s behavior. Yes we experience many things in life but since we have the real life living inside of us we can already remain in that place and have a say what the external experience will have a say over us or whether truth will(Luke 21:34).

11) We will fulfill our individual ministries well. We can do a God-given task well only when we are strong ourselves(Colossians 4:17).

12) We can then build well and strong upon the foundation of great fathers of faith that have gone before us( 1 Corinthians 3:10-11).

13) We can ensure that we do not loose what we work for in terms of salvation and what we have been called to do here and thereby get our full reward what all is said and done(2 John 1:8-9).

14) We become a model in Christ for others to follow( 1 Corinthians 11:1).

15) We not only save our own selves but the ones who will hear us(1 Timothy 4:16).Strong are able to build up.

16) We will then we able to pay full and proper attention to the sphere of influence He has given us(Acts 20:26-28).

17) We will be able to help people from the right place because we will have overcome our own selves. If we ourselves have not overcome certain wrong mindsets or behavior patterns how will we be able to help those who are struggling with the similar things? (James 5:20)

18) Since we will be able to hold onto God’s word so strongly, any instruction or encouragement to another person going out from us will be sound and from a right place(Titus 1:9).

19) We will then have the ability to turn people’s actions if they are going towards destruction of themselves.
