Liderazgo con propósito y el mandato del Reino para el éxito sostenible

The Call to Occupy 

In Jesus’ parable, the instruction to “occupy until I come” is more than an economic directive—it is a Kingdom mandate. The word occupy carries the meaning of doing business, engaging, producing, and multiplying what has been entrusted to us. It is a charge to remain faithful, diligent, and purposeful until Christ’s return. 

For leaders in every arena—faith, education, business, government, or community—this principle challenges us not to shrink back in fear or idleness, but to actively steward our gifts, talents, and influence. 

This is not the time to drift into complacency. The world around us may present uncertainty, but Kingdom citizens are called to bring stability, creativity, and hope. To occupy is to engage fully with life, to use every opportunity wisely, and to keep building until the Master returns.
