If you're searching "trusting God in difficult times," "how to trust God" or "economic uncertainty," this episode is for you.
Trusting God When the Economy Shakes Your BusinessYour clients are buying slower. They ask for discounts. They take longer to say yes. Your software, contractors and internet all cost more. You tell everyone you're trusting God with your business, then you open the bank app, close it, and open it again ten minutes later.
Statistics Canada, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics and the National Federation of Independent Business all tell the same story. Prices are rising, and small business owners name inflation as one of their problems. So when a client hesitates, it might not be your offer. It might not be your faith either.
What Hezekiah Can Teach Christian Women in Business About Trusting GodHezekiah trusted the LORD God of Israel. Then Assyria took the fenced cities of Judah, and a great army came anyway. Assyria's messengers sent him a letter aimed at his trust. Here is what he did with it:
"And Hezekiah received the letter of the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up into the house of the LORD, and spread it before the LORD." (2 Kings 19:14, KJV)
He read all of it. Then he took it to God and laid it open.
How to Trust God With Your Numbers, Pricing and Slow SeasonsTrusting God in difficult times has a shape. Look at your real numbers. Tell God what you see and ask Him for the wise next step. Then make the decision you've been putting off.
We walk through three real situations: a client asking for a discount, a $1,200 month followed by a $280 month and why that's a slow season, not a failed business, and whether raising prices is greed or faithfulness. I also share my own story of putting myself through university on my own, and what it taught me about budgeting.
Your One Step This WeekBefore you open your bank app or your analytics, stop for sixty seconds and tell God what you're about to look at. Then write down three things: one way this economy is hitting your business, one way it's hitting your home, and one number you've been avoiding.
Trusting God with your numbers starts the way it did for Hezekiah: read all of it, then spread it before the LORD.
