Have you ever thought about what it must have been like to have such clarity of vision that despite sitting in the presence of absolute darkness, void, and emptiness, still the creative energy that flows within you is like an UNSTOPPABLE storm about to change the landscape of the future as we know it?
Can you imagine believing in your vision so much that you speak to it, hover over it, meditate on it till eventually it is manifested into reality?
This morning during my devotion, I was meditating on Genesis 1 when the pages came to life as if in a 4D movie. Absolute darkness, complete emptiness, zero reflection, total silence and YET……astronomical entrepreneurial energy!
Let’s look at the first known creation in Genesis 1. It says that in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and void and darkness covered the face of the deep. AND YET…The Spirit of God hovered over the face of the waters, over the darkness, and over what seemed like NOTHING!
At this very early stage of the Ultimate Entrepreneurial venture, there was nothing but the vision of God. There was NO SIGN that would dictate his plan would work, nothing to even make is seem possible. There was no proof that such a world of systems could work. Even though the Bible says, “In the beginning WAS….the heavens and earth”, they did not even exist yet! They were nothing but a plan, an idea, an entrepreneurial vision of GOD to make SOMETHING out of NOTHING.
Point #1: Every entrepreneurial vision begins with the hope of something that has not yet been created.
Point #2: Every great entrepreneur does not let current reality define their ultimate destiny. No matter where you are right now or what your current circumstances may be, you are the incubator of greatness. Your current reality is nothing more than preparation for your ultimate destiny.
Point #3: Darkness, silence, emptiness and even loneliness are the perfect pH balance for miracles to happen. They were the soil for God’s creation to be manifest. The darkness, void, and empty moments of your life could very well be the time when you are to begin speaking to your creation, hovering over it and start expecting it like never before to appear before your very eyes.
Point #4: God SPOKE to his vision, “Let there be light.” The bible says light appeared, even though it was eleven scriptures later (vs.11) when the stars, sun and light were actually made reality. You must believe in and speak to the vision in your heart even before it is a reality. Call it into being. Prepare for it. Make way for it’s arrival and then wait with earnest expectation and faith.
When God innovates, He does so in the midst of the most uncommon, unnatural and seemingly impossible climates. With David, He saw a king when others saw a sheperd. With Mary, He saw the womb of the Savior when others saw a little girl. With Jesus, He saw ULTIMATE REDEMPTION when others saw a carpenter.
When God looks at you, He sees so much more than the world around you could ever see in you. Do NOT be despised by small beginnings. Do not be disheartened when those around you see your dream as small or insignificant. Do not be swayed by only what is seen. For it is that which is UNSEEN awaiting birth that will be the greatest inventions of our future.
“Oh the creative, entrepreneurial energy that surrounds us! Even in the midst of the Garden of Eden, little did Adam know that a chair existed in the tree. Tomorrow’s greatest ideas, inventions, businesses, and discoveries are resting in the things that already surround us today. The catch is…..will you see them? Will you be the ONE to bring them out of the tree and into the world as we know it?
Point #5: NOW is the time. THIS is the place. And YOU are the one to bring into reality that which has never been done, never been heard and never been conceived. You are the Sons and Daughters of GOD, created in HIS image.
