DAY 3 — STEWARDSHIP

Consecration is not withdrawal from the world—but engagement with it under heaven’s order.

Section: Discipleship

There comes a point in discipleship when belief is no longer the question—
nor even commitment.

The question becomes stewardship.

You have learned to hunger.
You have felt the pressure of being molded.
Now comes the daily work of living for the cause—not as an idea, but as a consecrated life.

This is where many hesitate.

Not because they do not love God,
but because they still want to build something that belongs to them.

From Desire to Stewardship

Hunger initiates becoming.
But stewardship sustains it.
Stewardship is hunger submitted to God’s will.

To live for the cause is not to abandon effort—it is to redirect it.
Not toward self-exaltation,
but toward alignment with God’s purposes.

This is the difference between:

• WIIFM (what’s in it for me radio) and consecration (tutorship of the Lord’s Spirit)
• self and Truth
• personal finite empire and eternal infinite inheritance

The same discipline.
The same intelligence.
The same labor.

But a different master.

The Cause Is Not Abstract

The cause is not a movement.
It is not a brand.
It is not even your calling.

The cause is the work of God—
and your life becomes meaningful as it is placed within it.

Christ did not come merely to be admired.
He came to do the will of the Father.

And He invites you—not to spectate—but to participate.

In the Fire with You

I write this as someone still learning to live consecrated.

I have known seasons of striving—trying to build something meaningful for God while quietly keeping ownership of the outcome.

That tension always revealed itself eventually.

Exhaustion.
Restlessness.
A narrowing of peace.

What changed was not effort—but yielding.

Stewardship began when I stopped asking, “How do I succeed?”
and started asking, “What is required of me today?”

The Daily Offering

Consecration is not proven in declarations.
It is proven in patterns.

In how you:

• choose
• respond
• speak
• work
• remain faithful when no one is watching

Living for the cause looks ordinary most days.

But it carries weight.

Because when your will is aligned with God’s,
your effort becomes multiplied rather than consumed.

Living Forward

The Lord does not ask you to abandon your life.

He asks you to place it on the altar, to govern it by His Law and then He preserves, prefects, and sanctifies:

Your work.
Your relationships.
Your trials.
Your growth.

Nothing is wasted when your life is yielded.

This is not about shrinking.
It is about being prepared—to receive more.

Invitation

Today, do not ask to mimic Christ. You are not meant to replace His atonement, nor take on His personality.

Rather, ask: What have I been entrusted with today?

Honor the stewardship in front of you.
Put your talents to the exchanger.
Offer your best, your all, and watch the Lord multiply your gifts for good.

Tomorrow, we continue.

For now—
live faithfully.
Walk humbly.
And keep offering your life to the cause of all righteousness.
