Here is something to think about: we know that revelation is progressive. There are many things we do not know about the natural world around us. However, if a discovery is made, we can use that concept to create products. It’s not absurd to believe, for instance, that there are thousands of applications for the cassava that we haven’t yet considered. The big question now is this: Who will wait upon God to reveal the thousands of untapped cassava uses that no one has thought of before? The world is full of hidden opportunities waiting for diligent minds to bring them to light.
You will need patience and faith to work out these inventions, step by step, until they are fully developed. Innovation is a process of listening to God’s guidance, putting in the work, and trusting that new doors will open at the right time. If you’re willing to wait and work, the rewards of discovery and creativity are limitless. Once these inventions come to life, it’s not enough to stop there. You must seek out people with the experience, perspectives and skills you lack to help take your ideas to the next level. Collaboration is a major key to success. Two are better than one.
Whether in business, technology, or agriculture, collaboration maximises the value of your creativity. The expertise of others, combined with your vision, results in something far greater than you could accomplish on your own. It’s a powerful reminder that none of us are designed to work alone; we thrive when we collaborate. So, wait for the Lord to reveal new insights, ideas, and concepts that could forever change your world. Something that solves a problem faster, better, or easier than currently available methods. With that idea, you can do so much good and make a greater impact.
