Have you felt a pull in your heart to start a business, not just for profit, but as a way to honour God and serve others? If so, you’re not alone—that calling might be your God-given purpose waiting to unfold.
The Bible reminds us in 1 Peter 4:10,
“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.”
Your talents, whether they’re creative, strategic, or hands-on, were given to you for a reason. Starting a business is an amazing way to steward your gifts while shining God’s light in the world.
Imagine using your skills to solve problems, bring joy, inspire or create opportunities for others. A business can be a ministry in itself, by demonstrating God’s love and generosity in action. Whether you’re crafting, coaching, teaching, singing, dancing, solving or creating, your work reflects Gods creativity, love and care for others.
Honouring God with your business doesn’t mean being perfect, as we all fall short—it’s about staying aligned with His values.
Work with integrity, treat your customers with kindness, and trust God to direct you towards your goals. Regularly pray over your plans and remember that every small step forward is not to glorify you but a part of His bigger purpose.
“Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you – Matthew 6:33”
If you’ve been hesitating, take that leap of faith (no pun intended). Let your business be a platform to bless others and glorify God in 2025. The world needs what you have to offer—because through your work, people can see Him.
What’s your next step in making your business a reality?
