JOHN DAVIDSON ROCKFELLER
John was born on the 8th of July 1839 to the William Rockefeller ’ s family . Though born into a family where the mother was religious yet having a “ dubious ” doctor as a father , John turned out a great Christian whose religious lifestyle has become a notable example to many Christian business men of the now . At age 12 ( 1851 ) John had successfully saved up to $ 50 which he loaned to a local farmer at a 7 % interest rate payable in 1year . Little wonder why he died a billionaire . At age 16 he got his first job as a clerk and by 19 he started his first partnership with a friend . John is the founder of standard oil He is in fact regarded as the wealthiest American that has ever lived . John died on May 23rd 1937
Moral lesson : John didn ’ t become a billionaire at age 90 or at death ; he became a billionaire right from when he started living a life of purpose which in this case is in the business world . He understood what was ahead of him no matter how faint it seemed else he would never have thought of saving at little age .
What are you called to do and what steps are you taking towards that call of purpose you have received ? Start taking the practical steps of faith now .
