THE UPPER ROOM DEVOTIONAL 9TH OCTOBER 2022
Topic: Faithful in all Things
Jordan Zúñiga (California, USA)
TODAY’S READING
Luke 16:10-13
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Even my smallest decisions reflect my faith to others.
Better the poor whose walk is blameless than the rich whose ways are perverse. – Proverbs 28:6 (NIV)
I am currently homeless, and my situation has taught me how much faithfulness and character matter. For instance, I once purchased a coffee and drove away before noticing on my phone that the debit card transaction never went through. When I went back to the coffee shop to explain the situation, I no longer had money on my card. But I promised to pay them after earning some money by trading in recycling. The owner insisted there was no need, but I was determined to pay what I owed, even if this meant skipping a meal.
When we are faithful with the little we have, we demonstrate to God that we can be trusted because we put our faith into action. We show the world that it is better to have an honest character than to be dishonest, whether we live in poverty or possess riches. Not only do we glorify God with our faithfulness, but we share God’s love with those we encounter.
God has shown me the importance of being faithful despite poverty and desperation. With Jesus, we can be honest in all things.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Abba, we thank you for your loving discipline. Teach us to be honest in all things so that we can live in accordance with your word. Amen.
