WHO ARE KINGDOM BUILDERS?
Kingdom Builders
is a way of leading the great commission through a community who faithfully give above and beyond. From the kids to adults, the profile of a Kingdom Builder is the same. This community is built of individuals and families that prayerfully commit to give, over and above their tithes, to global missions, local church expansion and future Christian leaders.
It is easy to assume Kingdom Builders are those who are able to give $1M and above, but this is not the reality! Every person in your church has the ability to be a Kingdom Builder. God does not use superstars to do this. It is not about the money people have, but the sacrifice they are willing to make. The way we teach this at River Valley is anyone who gives above their tithe, no matter how little or how much, they are a Kingdom Builder!
One of the ways we help individuals in our church become Kingdom Builders is through this process of Plan, Vision, Dream:
Plan:
First, make a plan to give. When you have plans that are diligent, it leads to plenty (Proverbs 21:5). Whatever the amount is - have the plan in place, work the plan and be obedient with it. Start there.
Vision:
Next, ask God to give you a vision for what He could do through you with His help. This is beyond what you can do in your natural income. This requires you to take a step of faith. Additionally, Habakkuk 2:2 tells us to write that vision down and pray about it! God will supply all your needs according to His riches in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19). Stepping out in faith pleases God.
Dream:
Lastly, what would be a dream amount you could give? Hold onto it. This number is only between you and God. Watch as each step of faith you take, God moves you closer to that dream. God can do exceedingly, abundantly more than all we can ask for or imagine (Ephesians 3:20).
