If your heart is in the right place, and you have evolved your spirit beyond hedonistic pleasures. You should increase your influence over your world. You should set a watch over it. One of the ways to influence your world is to own a (small) piece of the economy. You need to understand two things for this to make sense to you. First, you have to realize that your world is shaped by socio-economic forces that must be controlled by someone. Second, you need to know that if people with good intentions do not exert themselves, the worst of humans will.
You have to desire to own a piece of your local economy. If your job is to watch the world, you require economic powers to do so effectively. Start a farm. Build a high quality school. You should be thinking about supplying the cement and blocks for every building project in your area. Run the biggest bakery or grocery store in town. You should invest in real estate. This is not about the money. This is about the influence you will build in the community. You can then leverage this influence to do even more. When you have economic influence over your community, it is easier to steer your world towards where God wants.
Abraham Lincoln once said, “Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith, let us, to the end, dare to do our duty as we understand it”. The Holy Bible agrees with this view, as it is written; “he gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength” (Isaiah 40:29 ESV). God can increase your economic might over your world if you have faith. And ready to do your duty as you understand it. So, do not exempt yourself from this because of any financial handicap. Your faith in God is good enough to empower you to do the impossible. What you have or do not have is not relevant. You can own a (small) piece of the economy of your world. You should.
