The Bible is God’s revelation of Himself to mankind. Each word is meant to transform your life so that you can reveal Christ to others. When you are changed from the inside out, people will notice. Your life will become a light to those who are living in a dark, dark world.
Before we jump into the Bible verses for business, I want to make one thing clear. These Bible verses are meant to be taken in context. That means, they must be read within the Bible in the middle of the text where it is included. Taking a Bible verse out of the Bible can mean something entirely different. That can be dangerous.
Let’s get on to the verses before I start preaching . . . hallelujah!
