Everything good comes from God so you should be a good steward of all that God blesses you with. Why would you think that God would bless you with more if you're not practicing good stewardship over what you all ready have? The story of the talents given to the servants by their master are examples of good and bad stewardship.

Your own testimony and faith in Jesus Christ should always shine through these talents to sow or water seed so that the Lord of the harvest can give us all increase in the Kingdom of God. The harvest field is at the end of your driveway, in the boundaries of your property and beyond its boundaries. They overcame Satan by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony. Rev.12:11
