Prov 28:20, “A faithful man shall abound with blessings”. Do you want to abound with blessings? Then be a faithful man or a faithful woman.
A faithful person shall abound with:
The blessings of great responsibility. See these faithful men and consider the great responsibility God gave them. Moses, Num 12:7. Samuel, 1 Sam 2:35. David, 1 Sam 22:14. They each had humble beginnings and advanced to great responsibility because they were faithful. The same is true of Deborah, Esther, and Mary, Martha’s sister, to name a few women.
The blessings of great answered prayer. Ps 99:6 Moses and Samuel “called upon the Lord, and he answered them”. See 1 Sam 7:8-10, 1 Sam 12:23, and Jer 15:1. The Psalms are loaded with David’s prayers and God’s answers. We can’t do anything for God in the ministry without prayer. Consider Paul’s epistles.
The blessings of a good name. Prov 22:1 “A good name is rather to be chosen…”. There are hardly any names in the Old Testament that compare with the names of Moses, Samuel, David, Rahab, Esther, Ruth, etc. Don’t bring reproach to Christ’s name and soil your own name in the ministry. Be faithful.
The blessing of a great reward. Prov 28:20 also says, “but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent”. Faithful people abound with blessings when they are rewarded at the judgment seat of Christ. One sign reads, “Work for the Lord. The pay may not be all that good, but the retirement plan is out of this world”.
Moses is “one of the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth”, Zech 4:14. David shall be king over Israel in the millennial reign of Jesus Christ, Ezek 37:23-24.
Will the Lord be able to say to you, “Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over…”, Lk 19:17, for example? He will if you are faithful.
Conclusion: a faithful man shall abound with blessings. Therefore, be a faithful person and you will abound with blessings here and hereafter.
