“It All Comes with the Territory”
Philippians 1:27-30
Luke 12:48 reads, “….When someone has been given much, much will be required in return; and when someone has been entrusted with much, even more will be required.” (NLT) This verse records words spoken by Jesus to his twelve disciples. Throughout the Word of God, there are various accounts of people who were good stewards of what the Lord had graciously given to them. All believers can do likewise by appreciating and prioritizing their heavenly citizenship. This lesson is designed to share aspects of being a Kingdom citizen.”
