In the past couple weeks, I met with someone starting a new business. It was fun to pray for that new venture and talk about what the future would hold.
After our time together I decided to build a list of my top 10 Bible passages that relate to work and business. Most people will spend more time doing work-related stuff than anything else in their lifetime. With that in mind, it is exceptionally important to know the wisdom and promises God’s Word has to offer!
These are my top 10, but there is no shortage of great Bible passages that deal with the topic. Feel free to post one of your favorites in the comments below!
- Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9 (NIV)
- They were all trying to frighten us, thinking, "Their hands will get too weak for the work, and it will not be completed." But I prayed, "Now strengthen my hands." Nehemiah 6:9 (NIV)
- It is well with the man who deals generously and lends, who conducts his affairs with justice. Psalm 112:5 (ESV)
- Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent hands bring wealth. Proverbs 10:4 (NIV)
- Dishonest money dwindles away, but he who gathers money little by little makes it grow. Proverbs 13:11 (NIV)
- “For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
- No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money. Matthew 6:24 (NLT)
- Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. Luke 16:10 (NIV)
- I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. Philippians 4:13 (NLT)
- Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men… Colossians 3:23 (NIV)

These are great. One I really like reminds me to consider carefully my partnerships with others knowing that they may either drag me down or undermine my integrity or reputation. This is from 2 Cor. 6.14:

ReplyDeletebizop Before you even begin trying to make online income you have to make sure you choose the business opportunity that is suited best for your needs. That means you have to first evaluate what you are seeking from an online business and what skills you have to bring into a business. It is also important to determine how much time you are willing and/or able to put into building your business. All of these factors will have a direct bearing on which business is right for you and will allow you to generate the most success.
