Fast Day 19
Mountain of Influence: Business
Day 1 – Worship
Psalm 100:1-3 (TPT)
Shout triumphantly to the LORD, all the earth.
Serve the LORD with gladness; come before Him with joyful songs. Acknowledge that Yahweh is God. He made us, and we are His — His people, the sheep of His pasture.
In the beginning, Elohim – the Creator of the Universe – made everything we need for life. He placed everything in its proper place and order, like a healthy economy that sustains life. Once creation’s “economy” was set, He created us in His image and in His likeness. He even numbered the hairs on our head (except for Pastors Jonas and Shawn) and then told us to steward His creation. His plans for our lives are for our good. They are for our welfare and peace. He wants us to prosper and be in health, even as our soul prospers.
Now, consider His creation’s details, the intricacies of our minds, what we as human beings – created in His image – have been able to invent, develop, and comprehend. Even our own economies, our marketplaces, and our industries can reflect God’s design to multiply, to prosper, to improve our human condition, to steward His creation, wisely. In fact, in Deuteronomy 8:18, God says He is the one who gives us the power to make wealth, that He might confirm His covenant with us. Selah
As we consider the mountain of business, remember that Elohim is over it all, even our ability to make a single dollar or a million dollars. Even more, God wants to be involved in it all, with us, His creation, even down to the last penny. Let us worship!
Your Turn
Prayer:
Today I bless Your name, Elohim – the Creator of the heavens and the earth, who was in the beginning. It is You who made me, and You who crowned me with glory and honor. You are the God of might and strength. Hallowed be Your name! I recognize You are the Most High God. You are my Righteousness, my Peace, my Provider, my Healer, my Good Shepherd, my Victory. You are my ALL in ALL!
Fast Thoughts:
As you fast today consider God’s Creation – the intricacy of His detailed work. He did everything in excellence.
