The Parable of the Faithful Servant is a story told by Jesus in both Matthew 24:45-51 and Luke 12:42-48. In this parable, a master goes away on a journey and puts his servant in charge of his household. The servant is given the responsibility to manage the household and to take care of the other servants.
The master warns the servant to be faithful and wise, for he does not know when he will return. If the servant is found to be faithful when the master returns, he will be rewarded. However, if the servant is found to be wicked and unfaithful, he will be punished.
This parable challenges us to be faithful and wise in our service to God, to use our time and resources wisely, and to take our responsibilities seriously. It emphasizes the importance of being prepared for the return of Jesus and of living a life that is pleasing to Him.
