Top 10 Biblical Business Success Principles
10 BUSINESS SUCCESS PRINCIPLES
In this post, I share a link to all previous business tutorials, and a breakdown of the verses I shared on YouTube video called, "10 "FAIL PROOF" Business Success Secrets (I Learned from the Bible)."
PS: At the bottom of this post, I've also attached a downloadable PDF with additional scriptures for business success!
"A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children, but the sinner's wealth is laid up for the righteous." - Proverbs 13:22
10. DIVERSIFICATION
“Cast your bread upon the waters, for you will find it after many days.” - Ecclesiastes 11:1
Diversification is key in finance. "Never put all your eggs in one basket." Whether you work for a company or work for yourself, find ways to create at least one additional form of income.
Reflection: Think of at least one way you can diversify your income starting today.
9. WORK SMART, NOT HARD
“Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist. When your eyes light on it, it is gone, for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven." - Proverbs 23:4
Relying on our own mind, strength and will power is hardly ever the most productive way create substantial income. Always consult with God in regards to your business, career & finances. Don't be hasty, and don't toil.
Reflection: Think of a task you do for work or income each week. How can you do it in a more efficient way?
8. DO WHAT YOU LOVE
“There is nothing better for a person than that he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his toil. This also, I saw, is from the hand of God,” - Ecclesiastes 2:24
We all have natural gifts and abilities. When we do what we genuinely love to do, our gifts create abundance in our life. No gift is better than the other. What's yours?
Reflection: What do you do naturally do so well, you don't even realize you do it?
7. KNOW YOUR WORTH
“Bad, bad,” says the buyer, but when he goes away, then he boasts.” - Proverbs 20:14
Business is business. Know your worth, and never budge on your prices.
Reflection: In the absence of the opinion of others, what would you say is the true value of your product(s) and/or service(s)?
6. MONEY DOESN’T BRING HAPPINESS
“He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves wealth with his income; this also is vanity.” - Ecclesiastes 5:10
The truth is, there is no amount of money that can buy happiness. Money is only a tool.
Reflection: Do you subconsciously believe that more money, or income would make you happier? If so, re-examine this belief. You can have happiness now, regardless of your financial situation.
5. MEDITATE
“Better is a handful of quietness than two hands full of toil and a striving after wind.” - Ecclesiastes 4:6
Meditation is an integral component to success in all areas of life --- and especially in business. Meditation clears the mind, and allows us to receive clear guidance from God.
Reflection: Take time to quiet your mind and meditate today, for at least 10-15 minutes. If you make time to incorporate a daily meditation routine, your life will shift and improve significantly in a relatively short period of time.
4. YOUR ACTIONS REVEAL YOUR FAITH
“For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead.” - James 2:26
Our actions reveal our true level of faith. When we have faith in a goal or vision, we also take the necessary steps to achieve it.
Reflection: Does your actions match your faith? Think about this question in regards to relationships, finances and health.
3. CONSISTENCY IS KEY
“A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want like an armed man.” - Proverbs 24:33-34
Consistency and a strong work ethic, trumps talent any day.
Reflection: How can you be more consistent with using your gifts?
2. TRUST GOD, YOUR PROCESS & BLESSEDNESS
“He who observes the wind will not sow, and he who regards the clouds will not reap.” - Ecclesiastes 11:4
God's abundance never stops flowing. Trust God in all aspects of your life, including your finances. Do what God is leading you to do, and trust your process. Everything will fall in place at the right time.
Reflection: Do you believe that your personal finances are at the mercy of the global economy? If so, it's time to reevaluate that belief. It's not true, and it won't serve you well.
1. GIVE IT TO GOD
“Commit your work to the LORD, and your plans will be established.” - Proverbs 16:3
Dedicate everything you do to God. Let your gifts serve and benefit of others.
Reflection: How do you honor God in your work? How can. you be of more service to others?
BONUS: SEEK YE FIRST
“But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” - Matthew 6:33
