This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24 As we ponder Psalm 118:24, I believe it sets us to wonder if God wrote this scripture for such a time as this. There is much evidence that end time prophecies may be coming true. This can create fear and dismay for many, but it can create another level of anxiety for those of us in business. There is an added complexity now to our planning for our daily and long-term business systems and structures. As times grow darker our enemy knows Read More

Romans 1:20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So, they are without excuse. Have you ever almost missed being in a car accident? One of those accidents that you perhaps didn’t shoulder check when switching lanes, and you nearly side swiped the car beside you?  In that moment did you feel your heart skip a beat or have a flutter? Did you chide yourself, “next time I need to be more careful?” Are there other times you Read More

Matthew 7:26 Everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. Have you noticed, as of late, that the marketplace is evolving at lightning speed? What we once knew is gone, or we have had to change how we do our tasks. Younger entrepreneurs are immersed in the things of today, yet I am sure they, too, find the constant change difficult. As we try to mold our businesses to model this new world of economic and technological change, we as Christians, must Read More

What is the fear of the Lord? In a nutshell, the fear of the Lord is to hate evil and everything God hates. (See Prov 8:13) But, it’s a lot more than that. It’s also forsaking every evil way in our lives. When we do that, the Bible tells us we have true wisdom and real understanding. (See Job 28:18) Why should I fear God? If God is love, and if He is merciful, why should I fear Him? Well, Jesus Himself gave a pretty clear answer…  Don’t be afraid of those who want to kill your body; they cannot Read More

Matthew 10:32 “Therefore, everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father who is in heaven.” It is tough enough competing in the secular business world without adding any labels that may deter the chances for you to succeed. I have, on occasion, not been as strong in my stand for being a Christian in business as I should. But I have a feeling this year is our year to stand up and wear that label proudly as a badge of honor! I hope you will join us. What does the business world think about Read More

Matthew 6:33 NIV But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Great words for a business owner “You’ve got to know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em, know when to walk away”. I wonder if Kenny Rogers knew those words would matter to us. I would never gamble; the Lord is very clear this is not on His list of actions appropriate for His followers. However, this sneaky little act of gambling is so prevalent in most, if not all, types of business ventures. You buy Read More
