Christians at times struggle with the ideal of success and business. The main thing that you must look at as you grow your Christian Home Business is, who gets the Glory? Do you take pride in your success or do you praise God for giving you the ability and resources to achieve success?
Your Christian Home Business belongs to God and not that of yourself. He has blessed you with the gifts that are necessary to create success in your Christian Business. It is important to always keep a close eye on the condition of your heart. Often the personal growth and development within a home business can cause pride and self exultation.
We are called into vocation or business to be going about The Fathers business. Our business is His business. We are called into our business as believers in Christ just as Christ Jesus was called to go about His Fathers business. Luke 2:49 Jesus Said, “Why were you searching for Me? Didn’t you know I that I must be about my Fathers business?” Christian Home Based business is like any other part of our lives and should be looked at as a platform for the world to Glorify God as we go about the works of a Home Business.
Who receives the Glory in your business? Jesus said in Matthew 5:16 “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and Glorify your Father in Heaven.” God should receive the Glory of our busness. Success in business just as success in any part of your life should be rooted in a foundation that Glorifies God for that success.
What are you doing with the resources of your business? The Lord has blessed us as Christian Business owners with the responsibility of stewardship. Remember that property ownership and stewardship was ordained by God. He blesses us with what we can be stewards of in our business as well as in our lives. Take note of your heart as you continue to build your business and determine your goals.
