7 Benefits Of Being A Kingdom StewardSample

The seventh benefit of being a kingdom steward is receiving the opportunity to co-reign with Christ in His kingdom. There is a lot of misconception about heaven. You’re not going to be sitting on a cloud playing your harp. Heaven is civilization. He talks about cities. He talks about ruling. Earth is the only known civilization, but when God recreates the heavens and the earth and the whole universe can now be expanded, it could go beyond that. We know it does include earth but it could go beyond that. The Bible promises different levels of rewards based on your stewardship.

But understand that going to heaven and not ruling with Christ is a reality. In the parable of the master and his three slaves in Luke 19, the first two slaves are promised authority over a number of cities in accordance with their good stewardship with what they had been given. However, the third slave received nothing but wrath. The point is that ruling with Christ comes as a reward for those who live as stewards of His kingdom.

So, devote yourself daily to living as a kingdom steward. Be mindful that all you have been given belongs to the Giver. His desire is that you will serve Him enthusiastically and see Him as the Lord of your life. By committing to using the talents and resources He provides, you will position yourself to receive a great reward and experience an eternity of rich blessing in His present and future kingdom.
