Align Your Business With The Love Of God

You must have enough clarity over your business to be able to state in a simple and clear manner, exactly how your business is contributing to the Kingdom of God on earth. In the realm of business, simplicity and clarity is key. There is no way your business can be aligned with the Father’s business if you can’t even define it. People now do business for a variety of reasons, including reasons unrelated to profit. However, a purpose-driven person (that’s you, by the way) should have a clear business mission.

There are many reasons why you want to start a multimillion-dollar company, but making money is not one of them. There is an obvious reason why money should never be the driving force behind anything a genuine disciple of Jesus does. Also, the Bible makes it clear that the love of money is the root of all evil. To someone who wants to watch the world and steer it in the direction God desires, you should have a “love statement” that guides your business. A statement demonstrating how your business and pursuits are motivated by your love for God and what He is doing in your community.

Christians have established purpose-driven businesses in all industries. From hospitality to tourism, and from education to trade and commerce. The key is to find a simple and straightforward way to connect your work to the Lord’s heartbeat of soul winning and fruitfulness. It is not about naming your company “Jesus is Alive Enterprises”; you must also demonstrate God’s love in every interaction with customers, suppliers, and stakeholders. Anything motivated by money or selfish ambition will inevitably lead to worldliness and corruption. May you not make money at the expense of losing your soul. May God have mercy on us all.
