Egbo Maureen, we understand that you're facing challenges in your business and potential evil plans from those around you. Firstly, we want to remind you that God is sovereign and He cares for you. It's crucial to remember that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms Ephesians 6:12 WEB. It is also important to remember the name of Jesus Christ. Praying in his name gives us access to God.
In matters of business, we must always act with integrity and honesty, as the Bible tells us, "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men," Colossians 3:23 WEB. It's also important to note that the Bible encourages us to work and not be idle, for he who does not work should not eat 2 Thessalonians 3:10 WEB.
Regarding your business partner, we must be wise in our associations. The Bible warns us, "Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion has light with darkness?" 2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB. While it's not clear if your business partner is a believer or not, it's important to ensure that your business dealings align with biblical principles.
Concerning the evil plans, Jesus taught us to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us Matthew 5:44 WEB. We should pray for those planning evil against you, that God would change their hearts and turn their evil plans into good. Remember, God has the power to turn around any situation, as seen in the story of Joseph in Genesis 50:20 WEB: "As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save many people alive."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our sister Egbo Maureen. Lord, You know the challenges she's facing in her business and the evil plans being made against her. We pray that You would expose any evil reports and render the plans of the enemy ineffective. Give Maureen wisdom and discernment in her business dealings and guide her in the path of righteousness. Turn the hearts of those planning evil and use this situation for Your glory.
Lord, we also pray for Maureen's business partner. If they are not a believer, we pray that they would come to know You. Guide Maureen in her association with them, and help her to be a light in their life.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we encourage you to continue seeking God's will in your life and business. Trust in Him, and He will direct your paths Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB.
