    Former CEO here. Seek God, not business or money. It’s not about you. It’s about His Kingdom and your role in it. If He calls you to start or lead a business, wonderful. He will have prepared you and the fit and timing will mesh. You’ll also see His power because…you’re operating in His agenda, not yours. I sought money and pursued business for decades. It was MY agenda and God was my “turbocharger” so to speak (I’m a car guy, sorry). Doesn’t work like that. He directs US - not vice versa. Seek Him. Find out what He wants you to do. He funds, equips, protects, and grows His plans and agendas.

    The Lord told me to start a business. I surely didn't want to back them when I was in full time ministry. I actually just did it half heartedly and made almost no money. Then last year I got convicted on exactly the commandment in Colossians to do everything as unto the Lord. I had no idea why I had to run this business but now I know why much more: serving people and reaching them. Since then my business made way more money, has way more customers, is getting known and recommended. The way how I deal with money and my invoices has left many people impressed because they are used to some level of dishonesty. When I get asked why and how I started the business it's deeply connected to the Lord so that I can give testimony. It's still many leaps of faith in a row to run this business. I am changed in my mindset and character through it.

      I heard Kevin Zadai share recently that Jesus told him that God never intended for pastors to leave the marketplace. Our religious traditions try very hard to pull pastors out of the marketplace, but now reflecting on Kevin's comments, I find it interesting how many pastors and "full time ministry" people the Lord actually calls into the marketplace. To me it seems as though God is calling many ministers from the church into the marketplace for a number of purposes, but one of them is Psalm 51:13 "Then I will teach transgressors Your ways, And sinners shall be converted and return to You." The people faithfully going to church are the righteous. To teach, disciple, and then convert "transgressors" you have to go outside the church. Doing this in the marketplace is the perfect place. To use business terminology, you first develop warm leads by establishing relationships, and then you get them in the sales funnel by beginning to gently teach them God's ways and paths. The Holy Spirit will then work on these people's hearts and in time they will result in sales or conversions.

      Jesus said " I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE"
      Hell is real, you can't scape, specially now that you heard about JESUS. If you ignore JESUS you will surely burn 🔥 in the like of fire. But if you accepted HIM as LORD GOD and Savior of your life, and follow HIM consistently, you will surely see HIM in HIS KINGDOM. 2024 years ago, HE offered HIS BODY to saved us from our sins on the cross and this is a gift. Every person just need to accept HIM.

    As followers of Christ, we should support each other businesses. In Christianity, currency does not circulate among communities. We earn and we spend wherever we get the best deal. On the other hand, Jews will go to their own barbers, solicitors etc etc. They know the money they spend in their brethren business will stay in the community and will support it. In Muslim and Jewish communities each dollar circulates 9-12 times before leaving somewhere else. In Christian circles, it's gone right away. That's why they are way wealthier than us, we don't do business in God's way we look for shortcuts and free stuff. Shalom and blessings from Ireland

      One reason a Jew will go to a Jewish barber is because use of LAWS prescribing how hair is and is not to be cut ( no razors are to be used on the head) for food, because the LAW instructs us that our meat has to be slaughtered in a specific manner and food has to be in line with what God told us is clean and unclean. And many decisions Jews make are around these laws. It is the foundation of the culture. Jews have also learned after thousands of years of living among Christians & suffering persecution and violence and forced conversions to Xianity, that if we don’t support each other, we suffer more and DIE.

      Yes, I heard quite a lot on Sid Roth's channel - at times depending on who the guest was and what was talked about - that the Jewish people followed all these laws of God and is why they have done so well financially.

    Eric that really helped. I run a micro business from home and its ticks over - just. However, I felt that I was being selfish and greedy running this business although I know God has blessed it as its a baby store for mothers and babies. Now I can see his hand a little more in it. Its costing me a lot - so its a BIG struggle. At least I will have a better idea of why I am doing it. I am serving his other children. Thanks again and God Bless.

    Your video beautifully articulates the spiritual dimension of entrepreneurship, drawing on biblical principles to highlight the deeper purpose behind starting a business. It's refreshing to see a perspective that doesn't just focus on financial gain but emphasizes service, stewardship, and aligning with God's plan. Your insight into using business as a means to serve others and glorify God is spot on. It's a reminder that in whatever we do, including business, we should work as if working for the Lord, not just for human gain which changes how one views the purpose of a business and transforms the entrepreneurial journey into a spiritual calling.

      that’s amazing!
      where’s the property?
      Father I pray that you continue to bless this project, that your loving hand is covering it. I pray that you bring in the rest of the funding they need… so they can do Your work in the world. Thank you Father… we honor You, and love and praise You… in Jesus name, Amen! 🙏🌟

      @@goldsteineric, the property for Christ on the River is in Providence Arkansas on the Little Red River (just North of Searcy). It’s a true pearl of great price. So many amazing people have been attracted to this vision, which is one of several evidences that it is not of us but of God. We’re leaning into helping couples - especially those where one or both spouses serve in ministry - restore the temple that is marriage. Thank you for joining us in prayer as we seek to faithfully follow this calling of business as ministry.

    I'm glad I came across this, I'm an Evangelist from Nigeria I also run a digital marketing agency from home with just my smartphone, however, I don't have the right knowledge and tools. I would love to learn more so I can serve God more and glorify Him

    Wow, awesome content! 100% on point. Refreshing and so relevant. Just stumbled upon your channel and have downloaded and subscribed to your channel. Makes perfect business sense..
    "God created business so we can serve his other children. If someone buys your service or product, it's just not the financial transaction, you are adding value to them. You are improving their lives, you are basically serving them."
    As a new business owner (super-small business). When I go through challenges, this is what encourages me to press on. I 100% agree and believe in adding value to people's lives through our services and products.
    Thank you for creating such unique content, you have added true value to our business. I feel really encouraged! God bless 🙏

    This video is the message I needed to hear! My wife and I are struggling with rebuilding my photography business. I was doing well and after COVID we lost everything. Since then we have been stuck, stressed and overwhelmed working for companies we are not happy about at all. We have been working on rebuilding the business I once had so we can move to full time with the photography. Thank you for this message. We will pray with better intention and make God the CEO. I love that!

      Rob, thank you for sharing so vulnerably! God always supports and brings us what we need through others.
      Sometimes our circumstances don't look / feel the way we want, but God will always use everything for good.
      His ways are not our ways, His thoughts are not our thoughts - He has GOOD plans for you and your wife!
      Keep leaning in - these are the moments that test our faith, and God is looking for people that He can "put weight on"... so you're in the "Gym Of Faith" right now.
      Heavenly Father I lift up Rob and his wife to you today. I pray for supernatural strength to continue walking it out. Father I know you have good plans for them, reveal your plans to them... speak to them, give them vision to see what you see for them. I break off any fear, anxiety and unbelief.. we bind and break that right now in Jesus name... release your peace Father over them... and I pray for a year of blessing and increase... and acceleration! Thank you Father - we love, hone and praise your name... in Jesus name, Amen!
