1. God Has A Plan For Your Life

He’s Preparing You For What He Has Prepared For You.

2. Little Is Much In God’s Hands

What Do A Coin, A Cake, And A Boys Lunch Have In Common?

They were made available to God.

A Coin - Luke 19:15-19 ““And so it was that when he returned, having received the kingdom, he then commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.

Then came the first, saying, ‘Master, your mina has earned ten minas.’

And he said to him, ‘Well done, good servant; because you were faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.’

And the second came, saying, ‘Master, your mina has earned five minas.’

Likewise he said to him, ‘You also be over five cities.’”

A Cake - 1 Kings 17:13-16 “And Elijah said to her, “Do not fear; go and do as you have said, but make me a small cake from it first, and bring it to me; and afterward make some for yourself and your son.

For thus says the Lord God of Israel: ‘The bin of flour shall not be used up, nor shall the jar of oil run dry, until the day the Lord sends rain on the earth.’

” So she went away and did according to the word of Elijah; and she and he and her household ate for many days.

The bin of flour was not used up, nor did the jar of oil run dry, according to the word of the Lord which He spoke by Elijah.”

A Little Boys Lunch - John 6:9-13 ““There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they among so many?”

Then Jesus said, “Make the people sit down.”

Now there was much grass in the place.

So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks He distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those sitting down; and likewise of the fish, as much as they wanted.

So when they were filled, He said to His disciples, “Gather up the fragments that remain, so that nothing is lost.”

Therefore they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.”

Faithfulness Stewardship Pays

One mina = 10 Cities

One Cake = unlimited oil

7 Loaves + 2 fish = 5,000 fed

3. Faithful With What We Have Been Given.

Luke 16:10–12 “He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much.

Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?

And if you have not been faithful in what is another man’s, who will give you what is your own?”

Stages Of Preparation

Faithful with little, and you’ll also be with much.

Faithful with another's, and He’ll give your own.

Faithful with mammon, and He’ll commit to your care the true riches of the Kingdom.
