1. Start with Gratitude
Kickstart your prayers with a heart brimming with gratitude. Thank God for your business, the opportunities, and the lessons learned. After all, gratitude is the secret sauce that opens the gates to His presence.
Psalm 100:4 – says, “Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.”
Ingratitude is spiritual blindness.
Your success in business will be limited except you’re grateful. It’s smartness in business to be grateful, so go ahead and be grateful!
1 Thessalonians 5:18: “give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.“
2. Seek Divine Wisdom for Decision-Making
Pray for wisdom in decision-making.
Ask God to guide your thoughts, choices, and strategies. Remember, He promises wisdom generously to those who seek it.
Proverb 4:7 –Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: And with all thy getting get understanding.
Wisdom is KEY to breakthrough in business!
I love how Amplified version of Proverb 4:7 put it – “The beginning of wisdom is: Get [skillful and godly] wisdom [it is preeminent]! And with all your acquiring, get understanding [actively seek spiritual discernment, mature comprehension, and logical interpretation]“
Need a breakthrough in business? Ask!
James 1:5: “If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.”
Prayer of enquiry is the best approach when seeking God for wisdom to guide your thoughts, choices, and strategies in business.
Ecclesiastes 10:10 – “If the axe is dull and he does not sharpen its edge, then he must exert more strength; but wisdom [to sharpen the axe] helps him succeed [with less effort].” AMP.
Proverbs 3:5-6 – “Trust in and rely confidently on the LORD with all your heart And do not rely on your own insight or understanding. In all your ways know and acknowledge and recognize Him, And He will make your paths straight and smooth [removing obstacles that block your way].” AMP.
Prayer of enquiry is your access code to drawing out secrets from God’s depth, which will birth breakthroughs for you in business. Remember the foolishness of God is wiser than men. – 1 Corinthians 1:25
3. Protection and Favor in Business Ventures
Seek God’s protective shield over your business ventures. Pray for His favor to surround you and your endeavors, knowing that He’s your ultimate protector and supporter.

It’s the favor of God that terminate struggles in business!
Micah 6:8 – “He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.”
Remember Micah 6:8? It’s all about acting justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly. That’s a pretty cool business motto, don’t you think?

Pray for divine guidance in financial stewardship. Ask God for wisdom in managing resources, making wise investments, and being a good steward of what He has entrusted to you.

Business comes with challenges; we all know that.
When challenges come knocking, turn to prayer for strength and resilience. Let God be your fortress and refuge, knowing that He’s always there to uphold and support you.
