Sunday’s broadcast ‘The Pioneer’s Blueprint was eye opening and revelatory.
I spoke about four principles that creates effective intersection between pioneering and stewardship.
1 Stewardship precedes expansion
God rarely entrusts new territory without proven faithfulness. We see this in the life of David where he is anointed as King in 1 Samuel 16 after serving effectively as a shepherd.
2 Pioneering requires stewardship discipline
You need structure in order to sustain new ground. A vision without stewardship leads to collapse.
The purpose of the blueprint is to create structure for the vision and a system for the vision to thrive.
Biologically when you think about your body, your body has a skeletal system that provides structure to your body. Your body also relies on 11 primary systems in order to maintain health and homeostasis.
3 Risk is part of faithful stewardship
Ecclesiastes 11:1 says “cast your bread upon the waters…” when it comes to stewardship, you cannot be passive- it includes calculated faith and risk.
This is where fear tends to creep in. God has not given you the spirit of fear. Failure must not be feared. How are you seeing failure? Failure is success turned inside out.
In order to pioneer effectively, you have to be okay with the fact that there are times you may fail. Failure is just an opportunity to learn how to do it next time.

4 God gives the increase
In everything you do, you must remember that God gives the increase and He multiplies. As you go forth and you sow, God will raise up others to water what you sow and He will provide the increase. 1 Corinthians 3:6.
Prayer: Father in the name of Jesus, Lord I praise You and I bless Your holy name. Father I pray that You will empower me to know and discern the blueprint that You have curated for the ordained vision that You have released to me.
Lord deliver me from the spirit of fear and fear of failure. Help me to stop worrying about what others think of me and help me to take more calculated risks in Your name.
Lord I pray for strategy to create the structure that is specific to what You have ordained for me to do. Lord I receive grace to walk out the vision in excellence in Jesus Name I pray amen.
