Prayer for Wisdom and Guidance in Starting a Business:
Dear Heavenly Father, I am asking that you partner with me and help me in starting a business. I have diligently prayed concerning this venture. You tell us in Habukkah 2:2 “And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.” I lay before you my vision. My heart is to serve my customers with a heart of Christ–sharing the Word of God through my words and integrity.
I ask for your wisdom and guidance in this new venture. I pray for good judgment as decisions are made. It is my heart’s desire to serve my customers as well as provide for my family. I pray for prosperity to sustain my family and to plant monetary seeds into the Kingdom of God through my tithe.
Specifically, I am asking your favor for the finances to launch my business. Open the door to these opportunities to fully fund my business. In addition, please provide the physical assets I will need. Also, bring customers to my business, the customers who you have chosen for my services as well as the gospel. I pray for my family as this is a joint venture. Please give all involved the insight and patience needed to launch a business. Let me not lose sight of my highest calling to you and my family first. I want to honor them before pouring out my energy into starting and running the business.
I am standing on Romans 8:28: “All things work together for the good of those who love the Lord and are called according to His purpose.” I feel strongly this is the direction I need to take. I have total peace about my new business and ask you, Father, to join in to make it profitable and a joy to run. Please remove stumbling blocks. For those many hurdles that are going to arise, I pray I glean much from the experiences.
Zechariah 4:6 tells me “Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the LORD of hosts.” I humbly ask that you fill me with your Spirit daily so that I am equipped to perform your calling.
Asking in Jesus’ precious name.
