Young plant

Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin…” – Zechariah 4:10
Small business growth is a development process that simply begins with a tiny seed, ?. In the development phase, seeds must be carefully sown to build a firm foundation. Businesses that flourish consistently are cultivated by sowing and reaping a healthy harvest.
When you think of seeding a small business what usually comes to mind? For many business owners it’s seed money, ??. Seeding a business is about more than merely money, it’s about ground-breaking strategies! One plant, some water, but it is God who does the increase! This means: each person has an assignment to do. One person plants the seeds and another adds water. Then God grants favor and blessings, causing the business to grow.
“The Ambitious Entrepreneur”
An entrepreneur has good ideas needed to start a new business. He/ She launches the business, but encounters problems preventing advancement. After not seeing a consistent harvest, discouragement creeps in. “Be not dismayed,” replied the marketing consultant. Properly seeding your business takes proper planning! Simply believing your business will grow is not enough to produce a bountiful harvest. You have to implement the work. Planting seeds for healthy growth involves strategies written down in your business and marketing plans. The combination of having both seeds of faith and taking action are key ingredients needed to properly seed your business.
Simply put, Faith without Work is Dead!
Faith = Seed (+) Work = Growth. The seed is the evidence needed to prove there is potential for Small Business Growth.
Business and Marketing plans are typically created before the business breaks ground. Many business owners symbolize the start of a new business construction by having a groundbreaking ceremony, inviting other business owners, and dignitaries.
Some History: Ground-breaking ceremony is a traditional event held in many cultures. The action of breaking the ground (earth) represents the importation of a sacred deposit, transitioning from faith to work. Symbolizing the establishment of a firm foundation and a good example of a biblical concept.
Zechariah 4:10 “Do not despise small beginnings…”
What you do for God may seem small and insignificant at the time, but God rejoices in what is right, not necessarily in what is big. Be faithful in the small opportunities. Begin where you are and do what you can, and leave the results to God. – Source: Life Application BibleDream big, but start small, business owners, entrepreneurs, and students. Your ability to consistently plant healthy spiritual seeds is the main source to what you receive in the physical. Simply put, your business will reap what you sow. So now the question is, “What kind of seeds are you planting?”
