What makes a Christ centered business unstoppable?
Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be as wary as serpents and as innocent as doves.”
Matthew 10:16 NASB2020
If you’re a business owner walking in faith, Jesus gave you a heads-up. You’re being sent out as a sheep among wolves.
That means the world will often see your kindness as weakness, your grace as gullibility, and your integrity as an opportunity to take advantage. But Jesus didn’t tell you to become a wolf to survive. He told you to combine two traits rarely seen together: wisdom and innocence.
Be wise as a serpent: strategic, discerning, and prudent. Think ahead. Build systems that protect your business, your time, and your peace. Don’t let “nice” become “naïve.” Plan for the friction points before they happen. Set boundaries. Define expectations. Clarify consequences.
Yet remain innocent as a dove: pure in motive, righteous in conduct, and Christlike in every dealing. Let your reputation shine with integrity, even when others cut corners.
You can be both:Wise enough not to be deceived.
Pure enough not to deceive.
Love people deeply but run operations diligently. You forgive quickly but enforce boundaries clearly. You give grace but you also give thought.
You’re not being called to hide from the wolves! You’re being equipped to thrive among them without losing your witness.
So ask yourself today:
Where do I need to be wiser?
Where do I need to stay purer?
Because a kingdom business is both strategic and sanctified and that’s what makes it unstoppable.
