Start Business with Faith

In business there should be a level of faith. Faith that God will do what He said. Faith that you have the ability to do what God has instilled in you to do. Faith that everything will work out for the good of those that love the Lord and are called according to His purpose. Faith in our business, that it will work.

Often times in entrepreneurship, discouragement hits us. We don't have the support of people we count on, family and friends. Things don't seem to be coming together. We hit every opposition possible it seems. There will be times that we feel like giving up on our dreams and passions, destinies. The thing about that is, you can never really run away from our passions and destinies. Everywhere we look we will see something that reminds us of those things. When God places a purpose on our lives, no matter how hard we try to forget, avoid, or ignore it, it will always be there. We will know that we have something to do. But sometimes it gets hard. God never promised that walking in His will and walking out our purpose would be easy. But He did promise that He would be there.

We have to remember that to be successful challenges such as these are going to arise. We have to overcome those challenges. In doing so our faith is being strengthened. We are sharper, more business minded. We are growing in God. Before we know it we have progressed so much in areas we weren’t even thinking about.  But we have to hold fast to what God has put inside of us to do. No matter whose support we have or don't have or what goes wrong, we have the Word of God. Stand on that promise.

That's where our faith comes in. Believing things will work out even when it seems like they won't. Hebrews 11:1 says, 'Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.' Meaning, we believe that what are hoping to happen with and for our business will happen even though we see no signs of it now. 'For we walk by faith, not by sight.'- 2 Corinthians 5:7

So when it comes to our business let's depend more on the Word of God and our faith rather than the opinions of others and what may be happening around us. There will be challenges, but that is when we grow and progress. Be willing to do the work to see the promise come to pass which is the success of our business. With God at the head of our business, it has no choice but to prosper. Jeremiah 29:11 says, ‘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.’ That future is our business.

If God said it, that settles it. That’s enough for me! Have faith and believe!
