Summary: <br> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">4 Important<br> things that you must do consistently in this month of Stewardship. 1) Pray for<br> the pastor and church for 10 minutes every day. 2) Win one soul this month. 3)<br> Serve in the house of God faithfully. 4) Give your tithes and offerings faithfully.<br> Even when you after the tithes and offerings have been taken, take it upon<br> yourself to still give faithfully.  <b><i>2<br> Timothy 4:9-11 “<span class="text">Do thy diligence to<br> come shortly unto me:</span> </i></b></span><span class="text"><strong><em><sup><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">10 </span></sup></em></strong></span><span class="text"><b><i><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">For Demas<br> hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto<br> Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia.</span></i></b></span><strong><em><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span></em></strong><span class="text"><strong><em><sup><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">11 </span></sup></em></strong></span><span class="text"><b><i><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">Only Luke<br> is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for<br> the ministry</span></i></b></span><b><i><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">”.</span></i></b><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;"> The<br> only way up in the kingdom of God is the way through serving.  <b><i>Matthew 23:11 “<span style="background: #FFFFFF;">But<br> he that is greatest among you shall be your servant</span>”. </i></b>That means<br> the kingdom of God functions on stewardship, it functions of serving. Serving<br> is the secret code in the kingdom of God. The bible says “<span class="text"><b><i>For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present<br> world, and is departed unto Thessalonica”</i></b></span>. This means<br> that there are some people who forsake the ministry. If you allow your emotions<br> to govern your life, you will not go far. I believe that the reason Demas forsook<br> Paul was because one day Paul was preaching something that Demas didn’t like<br> and left. Any Christian that allows his or her emotions to govern them will not<br> go far. We are not lead by our emotions, we are lead by the spirit of God. If<br> this is the place God has called you to be delivered, you can go everywhere but<br> you will not receive that deliverance but from where God has made it so. </span></p><p></p>
