Use what you have in a way that can grow or produce more

Keep what you have unchanged so nothing can be lost

Wait for a bigger share before you do anything useful

Focus only on getting more, not on being faithful with what is already there

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I admit that I have sinned and have not used what you have given me faithfully. I need your mercy. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I turn from my sin and trust you as my Lord and Savior. Please make my life fruitful for you. Amen.

Lord Jesus, Receive Me

Lord, wake up your Church to handle your gifts with care. Renew our diligence, free us from laziness and fear, and teach us to multiply what you entrust to us for your glory and for the good of others, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Revive Your People to Be Faithful

Father, thank you that you notice small beginnings and are able to grow what is placed in your hands. Thank you for every opportunity, resource, and responsibility you entrust to me. Teach me gratitude instead of envy, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Thanks for Small Beginnings

Name one responsibility, skill, or resource God has already placed before you. Ask him for wisdom to use it well, courage to act, and patience to keep working faithfully even when growth is slow.

Pray Over What You Already Have

Pray for workers, parents, leaders, and students to use time, money, talents, and opportunities wisely; for honesty in small duties; and for fruit that honors God rather than self.

For Faithful Stewards

Father, help me not to bury or waste what you have given me. Give me steady hands, wise choices, and perseverance so that my ordinary work becomes fruitful and pleasing to you, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Make My Work Bear Fruit
