Does your life seem like one giant setback right now? Be still and know, God knows what’s in you. He is turning things around right now. Joy will be yours again, you will rise again, you will breathe again, and you will dance again. He’s worth the wait. Why do we praise God? Do we praise him just on the good days, or do we praise him for the rain too? What I know is that joy and pain are both temporary, so we must see God in all seasons and situations. What is the lesson he wants you to learn? What is the enemy trying to get you to give up on? Embrace the change God is doing in your life. An unexpected blessing is coming. We all want to quit sometimes, but who does it help if we quit? Stay the course; God needs your testimony.
This verse teaches that joy comes from alignment, not achievement alone. As you walk the path meant for you, clarity replaces confusion and confidence replaces striving. Business ownership often reveals who you really are, your strengths, limits, courage, and capacity to lead. When your work aligns with your purpose, joy becomes sustainable, not situational.
This verse warns against ignoring wisdom until a crisis gets your full attention. In business, storms don’t usually arrive without warning; there are signs we overlook when we rush, cut corners, ignore unopened mail, or refuse wise counsel. Preparation, discipline, and humility protect you long before trouble shows up. Wisdom isn’t just spiritual; it’s strategic.
3. Job 13:15 (KJV)This signifies a deep, unwavering faith that endures even in the face of immense suffering. It expresses Job’s resolve to trust in God’s goodness and purpose, regardless of what happens. Job endured a series of horrific tragedies, including the loss of his family, wealth, and health. Despite his pain and confusion, Job’s faith remained intact.
This acknowledges the possibility that even if God allows the worst to happen, we will still trust him. Despite his suffering, Job’s fundamental belief in God does not waver. The verse is a powerful example of the fact that faith is not based on visible circumstances but on a deeper belief in God’s promise. It is a testament to unconditional trust in God, even when His actions are not understood.
Social media is a tool we all use, but it invites comparison, which can steal clarity and confidence. Someone else’s success is not your assignment. Your timing, resources, and calling are unique. When you measure yourself against others, you risk making decisions that don’t fit your life or business. Focus brings peace, and peace leads to better judgment and sustainable growth.
This verse reminds us that loss is not permanent. God can restore in one season what took years to lose. In business, this means setbacks, bad decisions, or slow seasons do not disqualify you from future success. Momentum can shift quickly when preparation meets opportunity. Your responsibility is not to replay the loss, but to stay positioned for restoration when it comes.

Not every challenging experience was meant to break you. Some were meant to prepare you. What felt like failure, betrayal, or delay can become the very credibility that attracts clients, capital, and confidence. Many leaders are trusted not because they avoided hardship, but because they survived it with wisdom. Your story doesn’t weaken your leadership; it strengthens it.
This verse encourages perseverance in good works, assuring that there will be a reward for those who do not grow tired and quit. The verse is a reminder to stay committed to doing good, even when it’s hard. You will face challenges when your results are not immediately apparent. There is a time for reaping the benefits of our actions, and giving up too soon can prevent us from experiencing that reward.
As business owners, it’s easy to get caught up in strategy, numbers, and the daily hustle. But this verse is a reminder that success isn’t just about hard work; it’s about alignment. When you commit your work, goals, and ambitions to God, you’re not just asking Him to bless your efforts; you’re inviting Him to shape your vision, so it aligns with His purpose. When you surrender your plans to God, He establishes them. That doesn’t always mean things unfold the way you expect, but it does mean the foundation of your business and your life rests on something unshakable. Work diligently, but let God be the CEO. When you build your business on faith, your vision expands beyond profit; it becomes a calling. Be purpose-driven; that’s the kind of business that lasts.

Habakkuk reminds us that vision requires clarity and patience. For business owners, this means writing your strategy down plainly so you can act on it consistently, not emotionally. Growth and breakthroughs don’t always happen on your timeline, but at the right time. Your job is to prepare, stay disciplined, and keep moving forward until the results catch up with the vision.
Fear is not a leadership strategy. This verse reminds us that, as business owners, if we flip into panic, hesitation, and constant second-guessing, these are not the tools God gives us to lead or decide. Instead, you are equipped with the power to act, the love to lead people well, and the self-discipline to make wise, steady decisions. When fear shows up in business, it’s a signal to return to clarity, not retreat. Always remember who you are and whose you are. God will never turn away from you; his love never changes.
I pray for you God’s best in 2026.
