Luke 18:1 - Now Jesus was telling the disciples a parable to make the point that at all times they ought to pray and not give up and lose heart (AMP).
When was the last time you prayed about your business ventures? If I'm to be honest I pray about a lot of things but I don't give my business life as much prayer attention as it deserves.
This is despite the fact that my businesses are a major part of my daily existence. And yet, I'm deficient in praying. I confess that I don't faithfully follow the instruction from Jesus to pray and not give up in the face of the entrepreneurial challenges that rear their ugly heads.
Sure when things go wrong, I'll pray, but based on His own words, Jesus wants us to consistently and tirelessly pray. My business life should therefore be no different and I shouldn't wait until something goes wrong to zealously lift my ventures to the Lord.
There is one verse I tend to use when praying for my business, however. Psalm 90:17 - May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us— yes, establish the work of our hands. I pray that the Lord our God will not only bless the works of my hands in business but that He will bless yours as well. IJMN Amen.
So, do you regularly pray about your business ventures? And if so, do you have specific scripture you use?
