House, business and office blessing: How to do them right

House blessing, office blessing and even the blessing of a new car are usually done by their owners to keep them away from evils and avoid bad lucks. We also bless our home and workplace to receive prosperity in business and in life. These activities are performed to receive blessings from God above and attain success in everything that is related to the object of the blessing ceremony. Other people spend a lot of money (ceremony fee, feast and party) to have the rite completed in a hope to achieve life’s good luck and fortune. However, are these rituals really push away evils and pull good lucks? Why there are many firms, from small companies to large corporations, which are still facing bad lucks and tragedies despite of having those rites completed well? Perhaps, those grand ceremonies, that include some priests sprinkling some claimed holy water all over your property, have nothing to do with the real blessings from the heaven. I write this article not to spread controversy but only to spread the whole truth about receiving God’s blessings for our houses, offices, businesses and for our entire lives.

So how can we really receive God’s blessings? Let’s find the answer right from the Holy book where His words are written.

Proverbs 3:33 (NKJ V)
The curse of the LORD is on the house of the wicked; but He blesses the home of the just.

How to become the greatest businessman?

At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Whoever receives one little child like this in My name receives Me. – Matthew 18:1-5

In this verse, Jesus taught His disciples that humility makes a man greater in the kingdom of heaven. Humility is difficult to do and only a great person who has a strong sense of righteousness, justice and self-control can do it. We all know that this virtue is good, but many people, even the most intelligent persons ever lived have failed to maintain it – instead they have been overcome by pride. Read more

How to become a healthy business person?

Busy… this is what describes most of business owners and entrepreneurs. Because of so much work and stress, they become physically unfit.  Some of them are craving to earn so much profit while earning different diseases. What is the essence of gaining so much money if you will just spend them in paying your hospital bills? What is the significance of becoming rich if you will only die soonest? Greediness makes people sick. This is because greedy people overwork and abuse their selves just to grab everything they can see. Lies make people stressed. This is because liars are not free and always have sleepless nights. Also, proud persons don’t have comfort. This is because they can’t do everything they need to do because of fear in losing their pride. In other words, what behind the sickness and wickedness of all people, especially the businessmen and entrepreneurs, are evils that are already residing in their hearts. Read more

The right way in doing business (Narrow Gate)

Like anyone who is facing any kind of decision, business owners and entrepreneurs need to choose the right business decisions. There are many ways of doing business and attaining its successes, but generally, these ways are only categorized into two– the right and the wrong ways. Now, you may ask how to do business in the right way? How that road looks like? Are you heading the right path to real business success? These questions are very important to be answered whether you’re just in the beginning, in the middle, or in the end of an entrepreneurial journey. If you have walked the wrong way and have failed one business voyage, don’t worry, you can start a new expedition and assure this time that you can arrive at the right place.

In choosing the right ways in life, most people take the easy ways. They prefer to enter in a wide gate were most people come in.  They favor the way which is easier, faster and offers lesser sacrifices. More humans are getting into the large gateway, probably because of the following:

1. No sacrifices

2. No tears and pain

3. No sweat and hardships

4. No waiting

5. No need to follow strict laws and rules

6. No need to think of other people

7. No heavy commitments, obligations and responsibilities

8. Instant money and other material rewards

9. Closer to fame

10. Farther from early humiliation

Are you one of the many people who have entered into the large gate and now walking in a wide smooth road to life? As an entrepreneur, do you think you are heading the right path? Now, read the following verse from the Bible.

“Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it.” Matthew 7:13

Now, do you still want to enter in a wide gate? Few great people entered in the narrow gate because it is the gate to life and the road to fulfillment. Sacrifices, which most people avoid, actually are the things that give us genuine and long-term rewards (think of sacrificing your gigantic profit for the wellness of your consumers). Tears and pain make us more emotionally and spiritually strong (think of defending and protecting an honest business). Laws, rules and policies put us in harmony and in the right positions (imagine a peaceful and a liability free company). Love, caring and unselfishness bring us more friendly customers, employees, co-workers and other people (reflect on customer care and emotional investments). Finally, patience and hardships help us achieve true success in life (believe in a great business that is built to last).

The right entrance to the business world is the narrow gate. And the correct way to entrepreneurial success is the tough road. Online entrepreneurship, for example, is known as an easy quick way of earning money. But actually, online entrepreneurs also need to pass through the difficult way of life to achieve long-term success. The Internet is a real time world of information. That’s why building a great reputation for you and your business requires constant patience and hard working. Most online business owners failed because they jump into instant money and fame. They forget to prioritize the values and qualities of being a great business person. The common infopreneurs also prefer to deceive people to earn instantly because they don’t have the patience to wait for the right time to earn. They also break internet laws and code of ethics just to win the competition. They indeed earn initially, but after a while, they failed and they lose their money, names and dignities.

Conclusion:

Enter into the narrow gate and walk into the tough road. Why? This is the way to God’s glory. Many people entered the wide gate and walked into the easy road, but have failed. On the other hand, there are only few people who became extraordinary by passing through the hard way and have attained true success. Is this not the reason why many businesses have failed and only few have succeeded?
