The Number One Principle Week 2 centers on the maturation of faithfulness and its crucial link to God's strategic promotion. It emphasizes that faithfulness is not merely a concept but a way of life, essential for progressing in the Kingdom. Key ideas from the message include: •Promotion is a reward for consistent faithfulness, not for ego. It's God's method for strategically positioning individuals. •Rewards from God differ from gifts. Gifts are given due to God's nature, whereas rewards are based on one's actions and faithfulness. •Faithfulness signals readiness for greater responsibility. It involves both understanding the importance of faithfulness and actively living it. •God rewards, but does not pay. Payment is compensation for a task; rewards are recognition for doing something well. •Unfaithfulness can harden one's heart, making repentance more challenging. •God is a rewarder of those who earnestly seek Him. This implies that a casual search is not enough, rather a diligent approach is needed. The message details a life cycle of growing faithfulness: •Welcoming wisdom •Being realistic about resistance, recognizing that challenges don't indicate God's absence. •Prioritizing God over blessings. •Faithfulness prepares one to receive a reward and that a harvest will come for those who remain faithful. This message highlights the importance of stewardship, reminding us that everything belongs to God. It states that we should manage our time, finances, relationships, and work as if working directly for God.
