"When the son of man comes, will he still find Faith on the face of the Earth? This is a deep question asked by Christ Jesus out of concern for believers across the world. He asked this because he was aware of the numerous challenges believers are faced with on a daily basis and to make things worse, we don't seem to get results for our commitment as fast as we may desire.

But perseverance is key. Answers to our prayers may be delayed but delay is not denial and if we lose faith because the result is delayed then it may never come again. You never can tell how close you are for your prayers to be answered and for you to finally succeed. You may just be a week away from breakthrough or a few days away from winning and then you decide to quit. You lose faith. You follow the way of the world. You may never see that breakthrough again.

In the gospel of Luke 18:1-8 where Jesus tells the parable of the Unjust Judge, imagine if the widow had decided to quit the night before the judge finally accepted to help her. She wasn't sure if help was going to come or if she will get vindicated soon. But she was persistent and got rewarded for it. This is the character of someone who has faith. Keep praying, keep pushing untill something happens and don't get distracted by other people's result. Focus on yours. Keep praying and waiting on God for your time will surely come.

In a time where people do all kind of vices just to gain the vanity of this world. Selling their bodies in reality and on social media, ritual killing, internet fraud and so on. Please don't lose faith. Hold onto God and wait for him to bless you. I promise you, the gifts of the devil never last. He give you things that make you smile temporarily then he steals your soul permanently.

The reason why God lifts Men is so they can be a blessing to mankind and have enough resources at their disposal to spread the gospel all over the world and gain souls for Christ. Apart from the aforementioned, any other thing you do with your Wealth is irrelevant to God and if care is not taken, it can affect your relationship with him.

So if the primary reason why you've been praying for breakthrough is to have enough resources to oppress people and show them you've arrived or to come to social media and flaunt vanity, then I'm afraid you might never get there.

What have you done with the little he has given to you? For this to be mentioned both in Luke 16:10 and Matthew 25:21 you can agree it's not a joke. If you're not faithful with the little you have now will you be faithful in plenty? People around you are literally weeping because of the small position and authority you yield today. How then do you think you can make it to the top and even if you make it up there, how long will you last?

Stay humble, remain valuable and always be faithful. Never underestimate anyone, your subordinate today can become your boss tomorrow. Your worker today can be your biggest client tomorrow. Don't think it's only in heaven our reward is. Even while on earth, we shall definitely reap what we sow. Don't expect someone you rejected in the past to suddenly turn up for you even when it's inconvenient for the person.

Life is tough and unfair so you have to hold onto Christ firmly and allow him transform your soul.
