Work As Worship

Sep 5, 2024

At the core of ‘God Bless the Entrepreneur’ lies the understanding that God is the source of our ability to create wealth. It’s not by our power alone that we achieve success, but through the gifts and talents He has entrusted to us. Colossians 3:23-24 reminds us, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.”

This verse is a constant reminder that whatever our hands find to do, we should do it with all our might, not just as a means to an end, but as an act of worship. We are called by God, equipped with unique gifts, and given the power to fulfill our purpose. When we understand this, we realize why it’s essential to give our all—because our work is not just for ourselves but for the glory of God.

Work ethic is crucial, especially since we are bound by time, never knowing our expiration date. This sense of urgency is something I deeply admire about Tupac. His work continued to impact the world even after his passing. This thought motivates me daily, whether I’m writing blogs, recording podcasts, or working on any project. I strive to leave a legacy that endures, driven by consistency and dependence on God.

However, it’s important to remember that our work is not just about producing results; it’s about working as unto the Lord. The world might tell you to grind relentlessly, but God commands us to take a day of rest, to make that day holy. While we work diligently with everything we have, we must also recognize that it’s God who gives us the power to create wealth. Our success is a partnership—God provides the power, and we respond with submission and effort, working as though every task is an offering to Him.

Perspective is everything. When we view our work as a holy endeavor, it changes how we approach every task, every challenge, and every opportunity. Remember, it’s not just about working hard—it’s about working with a heart fully committed to the Lord.
