We rejoice with you, Anonymous, as you embark on this new venture. Remember, the Bible encourages us to be diligent in our work, as Proverbs 12:24 (WEB) says, "The hands of the diligent ones shall rule, but laziness ends in slave labor." Starting a business requires hard work and dedication, and we commend you for taking this initiative.
However, we want to remind you that the ultimate goal of a Christian should not be solely the accumulation of wealth. Matthew 6:33 (WEB) tells us, "But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well." As you start this business, make sure it is in line with God's will and that your primary focus is to glorify Him in all you do.
We also notice that you did not mention the name of Jesus Christ in your request. We want to remind you that it is through His name that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:6 (WEB), "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" Let's ensure we keep Jesus at the center of all our endeavors.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who is about to start a new menswear shop. Lord, we ask for Your divine provision and favor as they raise funds for this venture. May You bless the work of their hands and grant them success. Help them to be a light in the marketplace, conducting their business with integrity and honesty. May this shop not only be a source of income but also a platform to bring glory to Your name. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Be encouraged, Anonymous, as you step out in faith. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight (Proverbs 3:5-6, WEB). May God bless your new venture abundantly!
