Playing Hopscotch with Our Liberties

Sabbath: Struggling With All Energy
Image © Pacific Press
Sabbath Afternoon
Read for This Week’s Study: John 16:5-15; Colossians 1:28-29; 1 Peter 1:13, Matthew 5:29; Genesis 32:1-32.
Memory Text: “To this end I strenuously contend with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in me” (Colossians 1:29, NIV).
A man and woman sat together on a talk show. Both had experienced the murder of a child. The woman’s son had been murdered 20 years before, and her anger and bitterness were as great as ever. The man was totally different. His daughter had been murdered by terrorists a few years earlier. He spoke about forgiveness toward the killers and about how God had transformed his hurt. However terrible the pain, this man had become an illustration of how God can bring healing to the darkest moments of our lives.
How can two people respond so differently? How does spiritual change occur in the life of a Christian, enabling that individual to mature through life’s crucibles rather than being completely overwhelmed by them?
The Week at a Glance: What is the role of our wills, and willpower, in the battle with self and sin? How can we avoid the mistake of letting our feelings rule the decisions we make? Why must we persevere and not give up when in the crucible?
Study this week’s lesson to prepare for Sabbath, August 6.
Amen!

Belief #21: Stewardship [What is It and What Does God Teach Us?] – Pastor Ted Wilson
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Mt0he4IRNE?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en-GB&autohide=2&wmode=transparent&w=1280&h=720]
In this episode, Pastor Ted Wilson talks about stewardship, which constitutes the twenty-first fundamental belief of the Seventh-day Adventists.
We often hear this verse: “It is more blessed to give than to receive” (Acts 20:35). Yet, in today’s world, so much is focused on what one gets. Nevertheless, the saying is true. It directs our attention to something bigger than ourselves and encourages us to look to the Giver of all good things.
The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines stewardship as “the conducting, supervising, or managing of something, especially the careful and responsible management of something entrusted to one’s care.”
When we think about stewardship, we realize that all that we have—time, money, abilities, health, and life—come from God. And He asks us to be careful stewards of these gifts.
Our twenty-first fundamental belief explains: “We are God’s stewards, entrusted by Him with time and opportunities, abilities and possessions, and the blessings of the earth and its resources. We are responsible to Him for their proper use. We acknowledge God’s ownership by faithful service to Him and our fellow human beings, and by returning tithe and giving offerings for the proclamation of His gospel and the support and growth of His church. Stewardship is a privilege given to us by God for nurture in love and the victory over selfishness and covetousness. Stewards rejoice in the blessings that come to others as a result of their faithfulness.”
When we give all that we have to God, He accepts it and puts us back in charge of it as stewards or caretakers. Accepting this stewardship responsibility breaks the tendency of selfishness and reminds us of the example He has given us.
Now, these are four areas in which God has entrusted us to be good stewards:
1. OURSELVES
By developing our physical and mental powers to the best of our ability and opportunities, we bring honor to God and become a blessing to others.
2. ABILITIES
God has given each of us special abilities. Whatever they are, they can be used to benefit other people and glorify God.
3. TIME
As faithful stewards, we glorify God by using our time wisely. “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart as working for the Lord” (Colossians 3:23).
We are also admonished to not behave “as fools but as wise, redeeming the time because the days are evil” (Ephesians 5:15, 16).
4. MATERIAL POSSESSIONS
Our material possessions and financial resources are gifts from God.
To help us remember this, God instituted a system of tithes and offerings wherein we are to return 10% of all our increase and give faithful offerings to Him.
As this system provided the financial means for supporting the priesthood of the Israelite temple, it finances today’s worldwide outreach of the gospel.
We can never outgive the Lord. He has placed us in the role of stewards for our benefit. One reason He asks us to consecrate our lives to Him is to help us grow spiritually and develop our character.
As we are kept aware of God’s ownership of everything and the love He bestows on us, our love and gratitude are nurtured. Faithful stewardship is a safeguard against covetousness and selfishness. It leads to the development of economy and efficiency.
True stewards bless others as they are involved in serving others and are willing to share what God has graciously given to them.
Through stewardship of time, talents, and resources, we become a blessing to the church, resulting in a strong church body ready to respond to the needs of God’s cause. With this, the church will have adequate funds to support the ministry and expand His kingdom.
In closing, let us be reminded to “give and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you” (Luke 6:38).
