Hi friends,
If you identify as a starter, you likely possess certain traits that set you apart. You tend to perceive opportunities where others perceive challenges, anticipate the future more effectively, and take action without meticulous details when success seems probable.
The principles I’ve shared may resonate with you. Regardless, it’s evident that you’re God’s partner in initiating remarkable endeavors on Earth!
Now, let’s delve into how you can effectively initiate action and inspire others to follow suit. I’m delighted to answer this question, and I’m even more excited to provide a biblical reference:
Then the Lord answered me and said, “Write the vision And engrave it plainly on [clay] tablets So that the one who reads it will run” (Habakkuk 2:2, AMP).
Starting well demands three essential skills:
- Record: The first instruction was to capture God’s revelation, or what God has shown you. The initial phase of your starting journey involves transcribing this message. While perfection isn’t the goal, persistence is key. Write until you’ve fully captured all that God has shared.
- Revise: The second instruction appears to be a continuation of the first, akin to engraving the message on a clay tablet. However, I’ll clarify the distinction between these two steps. Transferring the revelation to clay required time for contemplation before writing. This encapsulates the second phase of your starting journey. After capturing the main message, revisit and revise it to ensure its clarity and coherence.
- Release: The final instruction emphasizes the importance of ensuring that the message resonates with its intended audience. This is equivalent to sharing the message in a manner that excites and inspires those who will support it. It’s your “game day” speech, rallying the troops to take action that they might not otherwise undertake.
Adhering to the pattern outlined in Habakkuk 2:2 provides a simple yet effective approach to starting well. Record the message, revise and clarify it, and release it in an engaging and tailored manner to resonate with your target audience. As you follow this pattern, trust that God will provide the necessary support to make your vision a reality.
Speaking of support, I’ll be delving deeper into this topic in the coming days. In the meantime, if you need assistance in implementing this pattern to start well, feel free to reach out to me at info@induranceministries.com. Together, let’s transform what God has revealed to you into a message that others will eagerly embrace and follow.
