Every God-given calling has the potential to change the world. But to move from potential to impact, you need capital. Many people receive a vision from God but never move past the idea stage because they never quite realise that they require capital. At the end of the day, one realises that Christianity is practical. Your visions are spiritual, but it has to manifest in the real world. Your ability to put things in place, and influence your world boils down to the extent to which you’re able to leverage capital.
So, you are watching the world. And a certain problem catches your attention. You can not stop thinking about the teenage pregnancy epidemic for example. To change that “flaw” in your community, you need capital. You need capital in the same way an entrepreneur seeks capital to build out their dream business. Your mission works best when you build an organisation around it. Never underestimate the resources needed. Jesus said in Luke 14:28 that no one builds a tower without first sitting down to count the cost. In the same way, you must realise that your calling needs money, people, systems, and other resources to become real.
If you’re serious about fulfilling your calling, start thinking like a builder. Think about your mission in terms of building something. Ask yourself: what do I need to move this from vision to reality? Please think beyond money. Do not stop at thinking you need fifteen million or whatever. Rather, consider what you need the money for. You want to think in terms of needing maybe an office, such equipment and devices, and staff in the office for example. Your faith in God makes you a more efficient planner. As you pray for manifestations of the things you want to do. You have to also consider the capital required.
