Building An Organization

I believe the easiest part of building an organization is having the idea or vision about what you might want to do. It's the execution that will trip most people up. In Habakkuk 2:3 it says for the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. Sometimes it takes years for something to be birthed and other times it could happen suddenly. In 2 Chronicles 29:36 says and all the people rejoiced that God had prepared the people, since the events took place so suddenly. With God things can accelerate quickly. There are many steps to truly start a business such as registering with the secretary of state, getting your EIN number and if applying to be a nonprofit there are additional documents that must be submitted to the IRS. The Holy Spirit can also provide wisdom of the steps to take which means you would need to stay very prayerful about your idea or vision. God has a way of speaking to us in our spirit to give us instruction. Sometimes it may be hard to wait until that vision is fully birthed as well.

Vanessa, thanks for sharing. I agree we must stay prayerful. This is important throughout the entire process. We must also allow the Holy Spirit to direct us and I love how you mentioned we must wait until the vision is fully birthed. The waiting can be hard and in the waiting we can miss key components of the vision if we move to swiftly.
