Jay Shaw uses Genesis and Romans 12:2 to argue that success comes from releasing control and letting God's word reshape your mind. He points to creation itself as the model: God spoke formlessness into form, and you can do the same by visualizing that power and trusting rather than anxiously gripping your problems.
It's hard to let go and let God when you staring at the problem. You got to get from under the influence of the problem and get under the influence of God. That's why the Bible say don't be conformed to the ways of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Stop looking at that. Close your eyes. Stop letting that hypnotize you. Close your eyes. Take your attention off of that so that you can start to— in the beginning it was black void and without form, and God starts literally using his words Like, God put so much game in Genesis. It's like he wink at you and go, yo, even if you don't finish the whole book, if you just can read this first page of Genesis, you're gonna understand creation. You're gonna understand how to create. Like, it's so much game just in that first— it was black void and without form, and God started using his words to create what he wanted. Close your eyes and tell me what you see.
