Questions to ask ourselves are:
What are some things that hinder us from being
faithful to God?
What kind of outward or inward battles go on that happen that deprive us of faithfulness?

Here are 7 point we will look deeper into:

1. Faithful Servant.
2. Remove Self-Pitty.
3. Unjust Criticism.
4. Self-Judgment.
5. Righteous Judgment.
6. Eternity minded is earthly good.
7. Imminent Return.

We will look at the first 3 point:

1. The Faithful Servant
   • Consider yourself an under rower- the lowest of servants: No one is too good to serve and stay in the place where God has called us to serve. John 13:3-5; Mark 8:1-10
2. Remove self-pity
   • Don’t allow the BHPM (Boo-Hoo-Poor-Me) syndrome. Matt. 25
   • God brings us to a place where you will say:

I would not do this for myself,
I would not do this for another human being,
But I will do this for you Lord.
• This kind of attitude will carry us through the unthankful environment.
3. Unjust criticism.
• We need to be careful not to allow the critical opinion of others be a cause for ceasing the work of the Lord. Eccl. 7:21-22; 1 Cor. 4:3; 1 Co 1:17

In closing,
God empowers you to remain faithful!
