DREAM BIG. START SMALL NOW!
Jesus Christ said, “If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you won’t be honest with greater responsibilities. And if you are untrustworthy about worldly wealth, who will trust you with the true riches of heaven? And if you are not faithful with other people’s things, why should you be trusted with things of your own? Luke 16:10-12.

Great, realistic visions without daily, practical execution are just illusions. True progress requires aligning massive, long-term aspirations with a willingness to manage and optimize your current resources—no matter how limited they seem.

As long as we're ready to YIELD to the Holy Spirit and God's Word in absolute obedience, God is ready to BUILD and BLESS US. If we start from the top, the only way to go is down! The only way up is down. Every great vision that wouldn't start small is just a daydream and we need to wake up. Many great visions remain unfulfilled and die because they wouldn't get them started and keep them going! Start where you are, with whatever you have in hand and move upward and forward. Never stay small and never remain at the bottom.

If you wait for perfect condition, you will never get anything done. Ecclesiastes 11:4.

Trust in the Lord and His Word with all your heart, and never depend on your own understanding. Proverbs 3:5,6.

DREAM BIG + START SMALL NOW + KEEP ASKING GOD FOR WISDOM + BE FAITHFUL AND PERSISTENT= GREAT SUCCESS!

Great achievements are built on how well you handle your current responsibilities, finances, and relationships. Breakthroughs rarely happen overnight; they are the result of compounding small, daily disciplines.

Look around you, sell whatever you have that's not a necessity and raise and generate cash and capital to start from where you are. Keep asking God for wisdom and knowledge and courage to build and grow the business, ministry or vision. Before every great promotion, is the TEST of temporary demotion or humiliation. This humbles our hearts to the point where we can see needs to be met and turned into profitable ventures. This humble state also helps us to become willing to serve people selflessly with diligence, the secret for great success and the place for God to exalt us without limits. Read Philippians 2. When we're weak and helpless before God, we become most strong and capable because we can call on God's gracious, omnipotent help and supernatural abilities with all our hearts! Humility is God's nonnegotiable requirement for promotion.

Next, you need current information about your business, ministry or vision. You need at least a mentor. Someone already successful in your current pursuit that you'll need to listen to for guidance. You need to read good books that focus on your field of work. Attend conferences and seminars to sharpen and challenge your mind and also learn management principles for success and. to be current. Be liberal and generous, God and everyone loves a cheerful giver. Also, there's need for daily, faith filled and anointed praying, that reaches out to the Lord for regular help and guidance and blessings.

God wants you to succeed. Its your birthright! But great success is not found everywhere! Even Jesus' ministry failed in Nazareth! Not that He was lazy, dull or not anointed, but because of the people's unbelief due to familiarity! However, the situation in Capernaum was different and explosive! It was the same Jesus, the same needs He met, but different people! See Luke 4:14-44.

If we must succeed with that great, unique vision, we must be very bold to LEAVE OUR NAZARETH and PRAYERFULLY SEARCH OUT OUR CAPERNAUM to expand and explode! Our Family and Friends are good but too familiar. Go to strangers and put your gifts to work, you will be blessed with faithful Fans and Followers!

Fans and Followers are those who admire our influence. They Respect us, would Represent us, and are eager to Reward us for our valuable gifts. Great success in our work starts when our fans and Followers multiply. In ministry, our fans and Followers are those who believe in us and the gospel we're anointed to preach, and so they could easily be saved, healed and blessed. In the process our purpose is fulfilled, we get blessed by God for our obedience and faithfulness and God and His awesome Name is glorified.

Hallelujah!
