As a businessman, one of the things you should always have at the back of your mind is that you cannot succeed on your own. You need the grace of God and a mighty hand to always see you through.
This is why it’s important that you do not take God out of your business deals. You need him to stand by you, both in good times and in bad times. Also, it’s a very smart thing to pray before you begin any of your business meetings.
Do not think praying is unnecessary in a situation like that. You have no idea what the power of prayer can do.
The book of Deuteronomy 30:9 says
“Then the Lord your God will make you most prosperous in all the work of your hands and in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your land. The Lord will again delight in you and make you prosperous, just as he delighted in your ancestors,”

Lord, please encourage and strengthen us to keep going until we have achieved the agenda of this meeting.
Thank You, Lord, for answering our prayers, Amen.”
