Secrets of the Abraham Model of Wealth Creation

I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Stan Bullis, CEO of Unbridled Solutions.  As I’ve been exploring the theme of “getting back to the garden” I noticed something interesting in the details Stan shared with me about how he built his company.

Stan has seen his company expand again and again into six or seven new profit centers. About 90% of these sectors were birthed out of his own employees exploring their gifts and their dreams and waiting for the right time to walk in those dreams.  Think about that!  Stan Bullis is modeling Abraham’s method of supernatural wealth creation. With a small group of 300 “household” servants Abraham expanded into seven or more areas of supernatural prosperity. If you looked at him in the natural you would not see it, but there were angels engaged in the prosperity of this patriarch’s life. They were all working in Abraham's garden, his territory, his assignment.
Why am I bringing this up? Because there are some frequently missed keys in the Bible that help us understand God’s plan for supernatural wealth creation.
It begins in Genesis.
1. It started in the garden. The first model of increase shows us that the original building block was a couple.  The first business enterprise didn’t require 300 household servants—it was Adam and Eve in the garden. In time, like Abraham, this enterprise was designed to grow. Eden was meant to be a family enterprise!
Here is a prophetic word for many of you – “God has already given you and your family a sphere—or an Eden—that you are to cultivate. There is new territory in ministry and prosperity for you if you will slow down and listen to what each other is saying. Your children are ready to step into new responsibilities. Explore each other's dreams and look for the overlap. Be open to family callings and assignments.”
2. Your Eden or garden is the space God has given you to occupy and cultivate.  Every garden is designed to expand!  Each garden starts in your apartment or home. It will expand to your work. This garden will touch your business or may be an expansion into a new area of ministry. Explore this space. I almost missed a MAJOR area of ministry by overlooking the next generation. My WIFE had the burden and a staff member suddenly came alive with the vision. We discovered there is a calling on us to impart to the sons and daughters of those who listen to my teaching.  We call it the “7m Gen.” God had this expansion project inside of us for years but it came alive when I stepped out of the way and honored the burden my wife had and the gifts others were given to make this a reality.
3. The key to discovering new areas of divine expansion lies in cultivating relationships with those God has planted in your garden. Abraham’s model of wealth creation (like that of my friend Stan Bullis) involved exploring the gifts and dreams that are in the people with whom God has blessed you. It starts with husbands and wives exploring what each other is called to do.  The next step is to explore what each child is dreaming right now.

  1. I love this Lance!! Kingdom stuff ? I will be exploring this, Sharing with my family and talking to the Lord about this. This kind of ” creating a new model of life” ( always wanted to break out of the western culture life-style. Knowing there’s more..) has been on my heart for years but didn’t know how to start? Thanks!!!!!

  2. So good!
    I came home from Convergence to a middle child struggling. He tjought he was in for ‘a talk’ but instead we sat down for a couple of hours and ended up walking him theough the passon process. NOTHING he has been aiming at (defaulting to) ever came up. When I pointed that out he was amazed. No wonder he was fruatrated, he was spending all of his time and energy on things that werent even his passion!! We dug a little deeper and now he is so excited about his new direction. This also led to him wanting to go to your 7mGen camp, so he will be seeing you in a few days! Im SO excited for him and all that is in store

  3. Lance,
    Interesting phase ‘supernatural wealth creation’. Wealth sometimes can be limited to thinking in just money terms, in my humble opinion. Really liked what you are saying, but greatest wealth is in relationships as far as I am concerned. Being a business steward in Scotland, I am pleased and encouraged with folks like you and Os Hillman (friend) who venture into the 7 mountains of influence. First two commandments, Jesus says keep these two and life’s journey might not be too bad even in the market place.
    Appreciate your dedicated encouragement to the wider body of the kirk. Your ‘as one’ does ring true with me. We are called to be one, but unfortunately man splinters lots, so His church has suffered through all the ages with many names. If we are the living stones then it’s the church at home or Starbucks or the office or the church building or wherever two or three meet. Maybe the Revelation passages referenced to the churches are supposed to be interpreted as the church at ……., not many different name churches. In my opinion wherever one goes being a carrier of the Holy and Holies (deposit placed on all believers in the heart) then there’s two, so church is 24/7, it’s a way of life, no one can really turn it off, but we can choose to ignore it, which we all do from time to time (guilty as charged).
    Be encouraged, be blessed and be expectant.

  4. Great word Lance- as usual. No one person can build a family garden. It’s better if they come together ‘ as one’ and add their God given talents. The family wealth is stronger, wider, and deeper than personal wealth. This is awesome. Therefore we must cultivate that relationship with others “God had planted in the garden ” Wow!!! This word has awaken ideas in my head??. Than you Lance

  5. To develop a market place ministry through health and nutrition touching life’s through health products developing relationships and whispering to those cultivated relationships the good news about the divine life!

  6. Hi Lance! Great word. My husband and I enjoyed being at Convergence in Redding. I received a prophetic word the next day about God giving me grace for family and business. It was such a relief to hear this and lightbulb moment of why I had run away from business before – my upbringing of family owned businesses were us kids left to raise ourselves.
    This post is fascinating and timely. I just took the kolbe test yesterday and told my husband he should consider taking it too…today I can already see a difference in how I do business at home (I also homeschool) because of knowing my strengths from the kolbe test and why it felt like I was going against the grain in other areas previously.
    I would like my eldest, 9 yrs old, to take the test as well. I think your question poses some amazing possibilities. With social media and the ability to reach many, I would love more insight on how to organically create a unique platform with what God has uniquely given us as a family.

  7. A few years ago the Lord showed me the the basics of of a way to harness a vast amount of electric energy that is now totally overlooked and wasted. As of yet I have no clue how to make this happen.

    I am divorced & have been serving the Lord since 11/99 my daughter Nicole ( & her husband & 3 children) have chosen to be estranged from me due to betrayal, b/c of my own parents & my son David is still struggling with the demon of Heroine. Both of my children gave their hearts to the Lord, were water & Holy Spirit baptized 16 years ago. I know the call on both their lives, I continue to walk mine out! I serve where I used to be…drug addicts, prostitues, anti sex trafficking, the poor & destitute & the wealthy, I go where ever & when ever the Lord sends me. Been to many Nations, stepped out of the business & work world when I got saved, because everything I did, I did illegally, due to my up bringing! I stepped out of the business world b/c my god was business power & success, but illegally!

    Hi I have had on my heart to filter resources into those building His kingdom on the earth that are struggling financially and/or to get the basic resources for their ministry, at minimum. For a long while Ive asked God to show me the ability He has given me and to show others, to produce wealth. Firstly, He showed me how I had limited wealth to monetary when it is so much more than that. Then other things began to unfold such as exposing me to ways others in the body were producing wealth and how in my own journey He was accumulating wealth on the inside of me to bring me to the strategies that were there all along. At first it was too good to be true I will admit and I laughed thinking is it really that easy (don’t get me wrong it still requires something of me I know). The strategy is still unfolding but He showed me that we can have a series of wananga (which in Maori means workshops, conferences). He showed me that there are alot of flakey teachings out there that are weak in its essence and that people are wanting knowledge that is sound and I spose you could say Jesus mentions it in the parable of the wise and foolish builder. He has shown me that He wants to build something of a higher quality and that He wants it to be lasting for generations to come. Hosea says, “My people are destroyed because of a lack of knowledge,” and He showed me the church age that we have come out of is a thing of the past, its irrelevant to where He wants to take us today, but its also good to have had the lessons. My strategy is to have a series of workshops and conferences because people are hungry for wisdom, understanding, and knowledge. Anyway its still unfolding and its been gestating for a long while now and I arent sure if I have gone off the track.
