Words of Wisdom – Faithfulness

 

Proverbs 13:17, “A wicked messenger falleth into mischief: but a

faithful ambassador is health.” 

The above points out the fact that “a wicked messenger falleth

into mischief.” We see from this verse that we all are

messengers. The question is what message are we

communicating?

As believers we see in 2 Corinthians 5:20, “Now then we are

ambassadors for Christ,….” We are to be faithful representatives

for Christ.

We may not be able to be rich, but we can be faithful. We may

not be beautiful, but we can be faithful. We may not be

intellectual giants, but we can be faithful. When Jesus returns

He will say to those who have served as they should, Matthew 25:21,

“Well done, thou good and faithful servant:”

We read in Proverbs 28:20, “A faithful man shall abound with

blessings:”

Let us each one purpose within our hearts to be found faithful as

we go about the Lord’s work.

These words of wisdom: listening, control or discipline, work,

hate, generosity, hope, and faithfulness are all found in Proverbs

Chapter 13.
