Faithfulness in God’s Design | Stewarding Singleness & Marriage | Risen Church

Описание: FAITHFULNESS IN GOD’S DESIGN

“Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful.”— 1 Corinthians 4:2 (NIV)

Faithfulness is not just about what we do—it is about how we live within God’s design.

God’s design refers to His original intention, structure, and purpose for something—how He meant it to function, flourish, and reflect His glory. It carries:
• Divine intention (planned)• Divine order (structured)• Divine purpose (directed)• Divine authority (not negotiable)
The moment we step outside of God’s design, alignment is lost, confusion increases, fruit diminishes, and peace disappears. A life disconnected from its Designer cannot function as it was created to function.

📖 Jesus reminds us that the heart is the root issue:“For out of the heart come evil thoughts…”— Matthew 15:18–19

Transformation begins with a renewed mind (Romans 12:2). Faithfulness in God’s design requires inner surrender, not just outward behavior.

💡 Key Areas of Faithfulness in God’s Design:

1️⃣ Stewarding Singleness

Singleness is not a waiting room—it is a stewardship season.
God places us in singleness for:
• Spiritual growth and intimacy with Him• Preparation for future roles• Service and influence• Stewardship of time, gifts, and resources.

Your singleness is God’s personal training ground—shaping your heart, sharpening your character, and aligning your purpose.

2️⃣ Honoring Biblical Roles in Marriage

Marriage is not cultural it is covenantal.

📖 “A man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife…”— Genesis 2:24

Husbands are called to lead and love sacrificially.
Wives are called to respect and support as partners in covenant (Ephesians 5).

Kingdom marriages are built not on public applause but on private obedience.The strength of a marriage is proven in unseen moments.

Faithfulness in God’s design is about alignment with His structure, His purpose, and His authority.
