Producing the Excellence you have Envisioned 

When you are pursuing an advancement, a task, or a project, a voice or one school of thought may come and tell you to just do the bare minimum. It says, “Do it anyhow. Use the cheapest products you can find. Do as little as possible, and just start with little.”

Yet, in your mind, you see a greater picture. You see a picture of excellence. You have a greater vision for the work you want to do and for the outcome you want to create.

Then another contrary opinion comes and tells you to simply use the easiest thing within your reach, the cheapest thing available, and just do a little, so long as you have done something. That is one of the voices that can speak to your mind. Do not listen to that voice.

A child of God should always produce according to the picture they see in their mind, exactly according to the vision God has given them.

Just like God said to Moses: 

““Be sure that you make everything according to the pattern I have shown you here on the mountain.”
‭‭Exodus‬ ‭25‬:‭40‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Keep meditating on the exact picture of perfection and excellence that God has placed in your mind concerning the thing He has asked you to do or produce.

Wait if you must. Reach out for the best experts you know, those who are at the top of their field. Deep within you, you know that this is what you need. You need people who are excellent in their craft and in their work, so that together you can produce the excellent vision God has given you.

God gave you one hundred percent, so you must produce one hundred percent.

Do not listen to the voices that say, “Second best is good enough,” or, “Just do as much as you can.” Those voices seek to reduce your standard of excellence and diminish the quality of what you produce.

Do not listen to them, no matter how loud they become. Other people may not yet be able to see the picture you see because they have not reached that level of vision. But those who can see it understand that this is the level you have reached and the level God is calling you to produce at in this season of your life.

Therefore, ignore the voice of the devil.
