A steward is a person who manages another's property or financial portfolio or resources. He is an agent who acts on behalf of the owner

Faithfulness is diligence. It is the degree of our commitment to the things committed to us
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
We ought to understand the things we are given so that we can know how best to manage them.
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward

The secret of stewardship is that we must learn to convert the things we have equally into the things we do not have equally
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
An example of the things we have equally is time. When we waste time, we are not just fools, we are unfaithful stewards.

One funny thing about life is that we would never have more time than we have now. We always become busier. Now, is the most time we would ever have
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
We must be good custodians of time. We must invest our time in the development of our spirit and sould.

A man is a spirit. He possesses a faculty called the soul. He lives in a body

When we came to the earth, God gave us an adaptable body to survive the conditions of the earth.
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
Our bodies are basically costumes we have to experience the earth. There is not much to our body. Excessive focus on our body is a distraction. If we spend more of our time on the body, we are not faithful stewards
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
Carnality is paying too much attention to the body. Whether it is spending time choosing what to wear or arguing about what not to wear. Wasting time on the body is carnality

The responsibility of each generation is to observe the world around them, understand it and govern it.

It doesn't matter what platform the Bible is, the important thing is when it is in us. A seed remains by itself unless it is planted.

Use your time to develop your mind well. You will enjoy God more.

We are poor not because of our background, but because we have not been taught. When we develop our minds we would create wealth

Lazarus had access to arguably the richest man in the community. But his only desire was crumbs. If we desire crumbs, we would not get more than crumbs.
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
We should not spend our entire lives looking for what God has called us to do. God is not stupid. If we are not clear what God has called us to, it is clear He didn't call you to do what you are thinking
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
Apart from time, God has given us all graces. Not all are apostles and prophets and evangelists and teachers and pastors. Some are called into other things and the 'other' things are in no way inferior
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
The 5-Fold cannot be effective without the ministry of help
A lot of amazing gifts and graces seems to have been lost as the past generation passed on because those with the ministry of helps to extract, document and publish their stories neglected their part

Music Ministry is part of the Ministry of Helps. They can open the heavens over a meeting. They can stir utterance for the speakers and faith in the people.
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
Prayer is part of Ministry of Helps. Charles Finney is reported to have the largest percentage of the converts to remain in the faith in Church history. His secret was Father Nash who would pray for the 2 weeks preceding the crusades
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
Giving is part of the Ministry of Helps. It is amazing how much funds can help the ministry. There are people graced to give. There are people who are graced to stir the hearts of people to give
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
We have all been graced by God. We would give an account of what we have been graced to do not what we felt like doing. There is nothing better than staying where God called us to be

Men like Hur may have never been known if not if mentioned in association with Moses. He helped strengthen the hands of Moses. He was not as popular, but he was the reason Joshua won
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
Some are called to assist. Aaron was called to assist Moses at first. When He tried to lead in the absence of Moses, He led Israel astray. Staying in our call is important

"Without me, you can do nothing" this does not mean we would become handicapped. It means, everything we do without Him will sum up to NOTHING - of no eternal value
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
Even when God called us to a ministry that will usher us in limelight, we have to be faithful in coming to limelight
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
We must all be faithful as Christians. Also, we must be faithful to our specific calls.
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward

Being faithful can be tough. But we may be raising the seeds that will become a mighty influence for the next generation

@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
If we are faithful, He will put us through a process that will help us be effective in our future. If we are faithful, He will train us for the future
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
People are God's training instruments. If we do not listen to people, we will miss our training.

There is no double promotion with God. If He loves you, you will repeat until you learn.

@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
Being a good steward takes more than just anointing. It takes labour. We must put God's resources to work
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
@Paito_Wa #IG2018 #FaithfulSteward
We are wired the way we are because of the way He wants us to serve
