GOD’S BLESSINGS (Jan. 6th)
Work principles in Proverbs

  • BEGIN with Colossians 3:23
    Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men (Colossians 3:23 NASB 1977)
  • Idle [Lazy] hands make one poor, but diligent hands bring riches. (Proverbs 10:4 HCSB)
  • Dishonest scales are detestable to the LORD, but an accurate weight is His delight. (Proverbs 11:1 HCSB)
  • “The integrity of the upright guides them, but the crookedness [perversity] of the treacherous destroys them.” (Proverbs 11:3 ESV)
  • “Whoever works his land will have plenty of bread, but he who follows worthless pursuits [fantasies] lacks sense.” (Proverbs 12:11 ESV)
  • “The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied [fully satisfied].” (Proverbs 13:4 ESV)
  • Wealth obtained by fraud will dwindle, but whoever earns it through [honest] labor will multiply it. (Proverbs 13:11 HCSB)
  • Commit your work to the LORD, and your plans will be established.” (Proverbs 16:3 ESV)
  • Better a little with righteousness than great income with injustice. (Proverbs 16:8 HCSB)
  • The Lord demands fairness in every business deal. He established this principle. (Proverbs 16:11 TLB)
  • END with Titus 2:7-8
    in everything. Make yourself an example of good works with integrity and dignity in your teaching. Your message is to be sound beyond reproach, so that the opponent will be ashamed, having nothing bad to say about us. (Titus 2:7-8 HCSB)

GOD’S HEART (Jan. 13th)
A heart after God in the workplace

  • Even on the jobsite we can be an example to our kids & grandkids. . .
    But from eternity to eternity the Lord’s faithful love is toward those who fear Him, and His righteousness toward the grandchildren of those who keep His covenant, who remember to observe His precepts.
    Psalm 103:17‭-‬18 HCSB
  • Remembering Christian business owners who put their trust in their own abilities. . .
    His throne is above the heavens and He is sovereign over all
    Psalm 103:19 (Paraphrased)
  • Sometimes, in the workplace, because of our previous actions, we need to remember God has forgiven us. . .
    As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.
    Psalm 103:12 HCSB
  • Business owners responsibility. . .
    Do nothing out of rivalry or conceit, but in humility consider others as more important than yourselves. Everyone should look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.
    Philippians 2:3‭-‬4 HCSB
  • Business owners motivation. . .
    Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord? Who may stand in His holy place? The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not set his mind on what is false, and who has not sworn deceitfully.
    Psalm 24:3‭-‬4 HCSB
  • When the Lord is with a businessman/woman. . .
    When his master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord made everything he did successful, Joseph found favor in his master’s sight. . .
    Genesis 39:3‭-‬4a HCSB
