The Bible's Business Planਨਮੂਨਾ

“Who then is the wise and faithful steward?” Luke 12:42 NIV

BUSINESS BIBLE

The Bible says more than what you think it says about stewardship. You may have heard that good stewardship is giving money away. It’s not uncommon to hear: “You can’t take it with you,” “Give it all away,” or “Die broke!” If you don’t know what the Bible says about stewardship, you may give too much money away instead of multiplying it.

The Bible says stewardship is managing (and multiplying) money, not giving it all away. Stewardship is saving, investing, and giving. It is the good and faithful process of saving 1/5th, tithing 1/10th, and investing the rest so money multiplies. Jesus’ stewardship question is “Who is the wise and faithful steward?" His answer: “I will reward him with all my possessions!”

The Bible reveals that good stewardship is saving 1/5th (20%), giving 1/10th (10%), and investing the rest. Be a good steward—put your money to work and experience joy!

PRAY

Lord, help me to be a wise and faithful steward.
