DAILY MEDITATION

Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to (limited to, consistent with) their kind: livestock, crawling things, and wild animals of the earth according to their kinds”; and it was so [because He had spoken them into creation]. So God made the wild animals of the earth according to their kind, and the cattle according to their kind, and everything that creeps and crawls on the earth according to its kind; and God saw that it was good (pleasing, useful) and He affirmed and sustained it. Then God said, “Let Us (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) make man in Our image, according to Our likeness [not physical, but a spiritual personality and moral likeness]; and let them have complete authority over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the cattle, and over the entire earth, and over everything that creeps and crawls on the earth.” So God created man in His own image, in the image and likeness of God He created him; male and female He created them. And God blessed them [granting them certain authority] and said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth, and subjugate it [putting it under your power]; and rule over (dominate) the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and every living thing that moves upon the earth.” So God said, “Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the surface of the entire earth, and every tree which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you; and to all the animals on the earth and to every bird of the air and to everything that moves on the ground—to everything in which there is the breath of life—I have given every green plant for food”; and it was so [because He commanded it]. God saw everything that He had made, and behold, it was very good and He validated it completely. And there was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.

Genesis 1:24-31 (Amplified)

Transformational Leadership is the vehicle for building out a well-lived and joy filled life that extends to every one and every thing in your space. God challenges us to approach the circumstances of our lives in the image of God. The image of God reveals the diverse nature, spirit, and moral character of God highlighting what is needed to advance the whole of His creation. It is this model that God challenges us to move forward in, fulfilling His purpose and plan for our lives. As we value and encourage differences we are better able to take the people, places, and things of our lives and leverage them for their best use and opportunity to move forward. We are all connected and God’s intention was for we, the things, the spaces of our lives and experiences to be connected creating a wonderful mosaic of God and His power. As we lift difference, we are challenged to an order, traffic control, so that all things will blend and work together for the good creating peace, the harmony with the will of God for our lives and every one and everything in it. God wants us to have peace and to receive peace, the harmony of God’s will that just does not lighten our lives and paths but one that helps the people, places, and things of our lives reveal the glory of God. We need not worry about the need in our lives, as we value difference and do so creating an established order that God is lifted, we will have everything we need to do and accomplish what God has ordained, declared, and promised for our lives. Occupy Your Promise by leveraging the differences, diversity of gifts available to you within an appropriate established order, allowing for all things with confidence you have the sufficient resources to live in God’s promise of life and life more abundantly!
