Running a business carries real weight — livelihoods, decisions, and risk. This prayer is for the owner and the enterprise: wisdom to lead, integrity to hold, and God's blessing on the work.
The prayer
Father, I commit this business to you — its books, its people, its future, and the sleepless nights it sometimes costs me. Except you build it, I labour in vain.
Give me wisdom for the hard decisions and integrity when a shortcut would be easier and no one would know. Let honesty mark every deal I make.
Provide the customers, the income, and the timing only you can arrange. Help me treat every employee and supplier justly, and to be generous as you prosper me.
Whatever I build, let it be built on you. Commit my works unto you, and establish my thoughts and plans. To you be the increase. Amen.
Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established.
Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established — a business held with open hands is a business he can bless.
