My name is Shaniece M. Wise, I am the host of this podcast and I am a Business Expansion Coach and Strategist. I teach business owners how to grow their visibility, increase their profitability and improve systems and strategies.
This week is titled "You Are God's Masterpiece." and guess what? We are going to dive into a profound truth: each of us is crafted with divine intention and purpose.
In our last episode, we explored "Uncommon Favor - The Deborah Principle vs. The Dawn Staley Favor." This week, we focus on recognizing and embracing that you are indeed God's masterpiece. Inspired by Ephesians 2:10, we'll explore what it means to be God's workmanship and how this identity influences our approach to business and life.
Ephesians 2:10 tells us, "For we are God’s masterpiece, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."
First, let's reflect on the significance of being called God's masterpiece. This isn't just a title; it signifies that we are uniquely created with talents, abilities, and purposes that are divinely appointed. Recognizing our value in God's eyes can transform how we view ourselves and our work.
Genesis 1:27 and its various translations remind us that God created man in His own image, male and female. Whether it's the King James Version, the Amplified Bible, or The Message, the scripture emphasizes our creation in God’s likeness, reflecting His nature.
Being God's masterpiece means we are created for a purpose - to perform good works prepared for us long before we even took our first breath.
Jeremiah 1:5 says Before I formed you in the womb I knew[a] you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
This means the Lord was thinking about you before you were formed. You are is Masterpiece.
Understanding our purpose not only gives direction to our lives but also brings fulfillment and joy to our entrepreneurial endeavors.
Second, Seeking God’s guidance in our ventures acknowledges Him as the ultimate source of wisdom and direction, just as Proverbs 3:5-6 advises us to trust in the Lord with all our heart and not lean on our own understanding.
Third, as God's masterpieces, our businesses are more than just means to an end; they are platforms for showcasing God's craftsmanship. Philippians 1:6 say “And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.” This perspective transforms how we approach business, from decision-making to employee and customer relations, reflecting the excellence, creativity, and integrity of our Creator. So sharing your gifts with the world is sharing how God uniquely created you to be you.
Fourth, being a masterpiece doesn't exempt us from challenges. Instead, it equips us with a perspective that sees obstacles as opportunities for growth and showcases God's strength in our lives. We'll share triumph stories that highlight the resilience and creativity bestowed upon us by our Creator.
As we wrap up today’s episode, remember, you are not just a business owner; you are a divine creation, meticulously crafted by God to reflect His glory through your work. Embracing your identity as God's masterpiece invites you to approach your business with a sense of purpose and mission, knowing that you are equipped with everything you need to succeed and make a difference in the world.
