Prayer
As a business owner you may feel the need to separate your business from your personal and spiritual life. It may seem that your business should be be “all about business” but that just cannot be the case if you truly want it to be successful, especially as a Christian business owner but it also applies to non Christians.
Many people believe that you can’t mix business and personal life,
however, I beg to differ. I believe that if your business is important
to you then it is going to have to mix with your personal life and
become a part of you to truly be successful.
One of the areas of your life that will greatly influence and can
make or break your business is the area of your prayer life. Do you
pray for your business?
Prayer can be a powerful tool in business. Praying about the
decisions that you must make in your business, praying about how to
handle difficult situations and problems, praying about where to begin
when just starting out in business, all these things are areas where
prayer can be useful in catapulting your business towards the road to
success.
A set time of prayer each day should be an important part of your
everyday business life if you are a Christian business owner. You will
certainly be surprised at what a difference it can make in your
business. In fact, starting your day with prayer can be a smart
business move.
Another way to make prayer a useful tool in your business is to
secure for yourself and your business a prayer team. A prayer team is a
group of people whom you know and trust that you specifically request
to pray for your business. It is a great way to go the extra mile to
put your business on the right track.
When selecting your prayer team you will want to find those who
understand you and your business, your goals and also those who you
know are diligent in their prayer life. After finding them, you will
want to keep them up to date on how you and your business are doing as
well as notify them when you have special prayer requests about your
business.
So, before you take another step in your business, take time out and
do the one thing that can ensure that your business either remains
successful, becomes successful, or is a success as you launch it, PRAY!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS...
Yep, prayer is very essential in business as a believer. I remember d first work I did after high school which was marketing a syrup. Was always going out everyday and making the least sales among my colleagues 4 abt 2 weeks, not until I decided 2 pray one morning b4 going out, and jes like magic, my turn out was awesome. I could remember selling 2 cartons of d syrup that day dt even my colleagues and boss were surprised as 2 how I did it. But only me knew dt it was God dt came tru 4 me. Since then prayers and businesses goes hand in hand 4 me
