Bible Study – Luke 16

S – Whoever is faithful in very little is also faithful in much, and whoever is unrighteous in very little is also unrighteous in much

Luke 16:10 CSB

O – Commentary:

 If one is faithful in his use of money, then he can be trusted with greater things. True riches (v. 11) seem to refer to the kingdom’s spiritual riches of which the disciples will partake.

“Luke,” in The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures

– Like all relationships, trust is foundational to their growth.  If we our actions build trust, more will be given.  Like a parent giving their child more responsibility as they grow, God is doing the same with us.  Righteousness follows a similar path.  Both stem from the heart and overflow in our thoughts, words and actions.

R – Heavenly Father, you are the Alpha and the Omega and hold all that is in between.  Please help us to grow in our faithfulness and righteousness.  To do this, reveal the things in our hearts that do not line up with your word.  Empower us as we grow in both of these areas so you will trust us with more.
