The contrast between the two comings of Jesus explains why many failed to recognize Him. The first coming was marked by humility, sacrifice, and subtlety—He came not with outward power or attraction, but in a quiet, easily overlooked way that required faith to truly see and believe. His mission was centered on forgiveness and redemption, like a lamb offered for sacrifice. In contrast, the second coming is portrayed as unmistakable and powerful—open, loud, and centered on judgment. This time He comes not in weakness, but in authority, like a lion, making His identity undeniable.

Let's have some real talk. The entrepreneurial calling God has placed in your heart will likely take time to come to fruition, which means you may be tempted to quit because it feels like it's taking too long. You might even feel like God has forgotten about you, but rest assured, He hasn't. Everyone's dreams take time to manifest, and there are no magic pills or secret techniques to speed up the process. The key skills you need are simply trusting in God and having patience. Each day brings you closer, and after persistence and faithfulness, you will find yourself just one day away from seeing your dream come to life.

God desires for you to live in total abundance, with nothing missing and nothing broken. Whatever you need or desire, God is big enough to take care of it—and He wants to take care of it. You might think your reality doesn't match this concept. Here's the thing: just because your current reality isn't abundant doesn't change God's desire for you to live in abundance. Listen to this message to increase your faith and walk in the total abundance God desires for you.

Many entrepreneurs hesitate to believe God intends for them to prosper through their calling. However, Scripture shows that those who labor have a right to partake in the fruit of their work. In 1 Corinthians 9, Paul explains that just as soldiers are supported and farmers eat from their crops, those whom God has called into entrepreneurship will have their lives provided for through the success of that calling. Just as the Levitical priests lived from the temple offerings by God's design, it is likewise ordained that those who serve in their calling should be supported through it. Rather than being stretched across many pursuits to survive, God's desire is for focused, faith-driven work, trusting that if He called you to it, He also intends for you to prosper through it.

Yes, wait on God for direction when you are unsure about your path. However, if God has given you direction, go forward and don't hold back on your calling. Too many believers are tiptoeing down the road of their calling because they are afraid of making a mistake, or fearful they are being greedy. This timidness hinders or slows down success and reduces the magnitude of success.

In the days following the resurrection, Jesus steadily built the faith of His followers through personal encounters and undeniable evidence of His life. From meeting Thomas and calling him to believe, to appearing to over 500 people and revealing truths about God's Kingdom, Jesus strengthened their confidence and understanding. His ascension reminded them that His mission was not over, but would continue with a promised return. Then, fifty days after the resurrection, the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost empowered believers with boldness and ability, marking the beginning of the Church era.
