Prayerless Christians
I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 1 Timothy 2:1-2
Even though most people feel like prayer doesn’t belong in a business setting, that thought couldn’t be further from the truth. As followers of Christ, everything we do should be centered around God and opening up to Him in prayer concerning every aspect of our lives; not limited to our personal life but also our work life.
“The sanctity of prayer is needed to impregnate business. We need the spirit of Sunday carried over to Monday and continued until Saturday.” E.M. Bounds
Many aspects go into becoming financially secure, but including God in your business through praying is essential. Your success depends solely on Him and you trusting Him with your business. However, what God sees as success may be different than what we see. He wants to fill His kingdom with people who want to worship and honor Him, so make sure you include that as part of your business model. If you own a business, you are in charge. You can include people who are of the world, or you can include fellow Christians; you make that determination, but if you surround yourself with praying people, you and everyone in your business will be prosperous.
