Women in the Marketplace

When looking at starting a business, venturing into a certain career path or bettering that which is already there, it is paramount that we analyze ourselves. What is your motive going into this? Is it God’s will?

Mathew 6:33
But seek ye first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added to you.

Your assignment in the marketplace has Kingdom at its core. How does your business expand the Kingdom? Assuming you’re employed, is your conduct and competence good enough to evangelize without you opening your mouth?

Mark16:15
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.

The dispatching of Christians in the marketplace is part of God’s end-time strategy to ensure the gospel will be preached in all the world. Even the shepherd went into the wilderness in search of that one lost sheep. The marketplace is that wilderness and where the King’s wandering sheep can be found.
You are the light of the world, not the Kingdom. Constraining yourself to the four walls of the church is putting your light under a bushel. The candlestick in this context is the marketplace. Where men can see it.

Revelation 3:15-17
I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would that thou wert cold or hot.
So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

Lastly, you must be intentional about not compromising. The kingdom emissaries in the marketplace must be radical and uncompromising. The minute you shift your eyes from the assignment and begin pursuing unrighteous Marmon, he will possess your soul. The end goal is not money, the end goal is souls, it is Kingdom.
