PST Dr David Nzekwe.
✅Stewardship is managing God's blessings, God's way, for God's Glory.
✅A steward is a manager, not an owner.
✅God only Anoints & empowers stewards who advance God's Agenda on Earth: Isaiah 6:8, Isaiah 45:1-5,13,
✅To be fruitful & experience increase in ministry, business, career etc you must understand & practice Stewardship.
•Matt 25:14-30 Parable of the talents.
✅David was faithful as steward of His father's sheep, even risking his life twice with Lion & Deer to save a Goat. God saw that, Anointed him & promoted him to be King over Israel. 1 Sam 16:1-14; 1 Sam 17:33-37
