Behold I will do a new
thing. Now it will spring forth. Shall you not know of them? I will even make a
wilderness in the dessert.You have heard and seen all of this. I have showed
you new things from this time, even hidden things, and you did not know them.
Isaiah 43:19 and 48:6
If you think that God will only talk to you about Heaven, Hell and
spirits, think again. As believers, we serve a God who is more than able to do
abundantly beyond what we ask or think, and wants us to excel [Ephesians 3:20].
One way He does this is through giving us an idea, that when acted on in faith,
will allow us to prosper.
Genesis 41: 9-14
9 Then
the chief cupbearer said to Pharaoh, "Today I am reminded of my
shortcomings. 10Pharaoh was once angry with his
servants, and he imprisoned me and the chief baker in the
house of the captain of the guard. 11 Each of us
had a dream the same night, and each dream had a meaning of its own. 12 Now
a young Hebrew was there with us, a servant of the captain
of the guard. We told him our dreams, and he interpreted
them for us, giving each man the interpretation of his dream. 13 And
things turned out exactly as he interpreted them to us: I was restored to my
position, and the other man was hanged." 14 So
Pharaoh sent for Joseph, and he was quickly brought from the dungeon. When
he had shaved and changed his clothes, he
came before Pharaoh.
Notice, Josephs ability to interpret dreams brought him
from the prison to the palace in one day. Likewise your gift and talents have
to be shared with others if you are ever going to see promotion of any sort.
Here are three steps to get started.
1) Design
Jock down your ideas. But don't just use words, use images. Cut
and past and actually draw what you have in mind. The bible says that when we
make our ideas plain and clear, those who God will send to help us, are able to
do so even better [Habakkuk 2:2]. You should end this phase of development by
drafting an executive
summary.
2) Develop
Now you have to begin
adding substance. Make phone calls. Build your website, blog, and Twitter
profiles. You have to get your idea out there, so other people can begin to
have it. The scripture says, "They who withhold...the people shall
curse. But blessings are on the head of them who sell" [Proverbs 11:26].
One way we receive Gods blessing is to not only have a gift, but to
build a business around that gift. Be sure to take the necessary steps to
protect yourself from imitators beforehand, but, you have to get it out there.
3) Drive
Finally, it is your job
to begin driving more and more sales enabling your idea to grow. Are you
telling people about your site? Are you passing out brochures? Remember if you
do nothing, nothing will happen. But the opposite is true, if you do something,
something will happen.
