Introduction

What Is Partnership with God?

The highest heavens belong to the L ORD , but the earth he has given to mankind.

Psalm 115:16

Who wouldnt want to have Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, or Jorge Paulo Lemann as a business partner? Who wouldnt want to own a stake, however small, in one of their spectacular companies? It is inspiring to be around innovative people and ventures. Sometimes the most important thing is not the size of the business but its vision and mission.

If you think these examples are enticing, how would you react to the opportunity to become a partner with God? Have you ever imagined what it would be like to be a part of his projects or to be able to count on him to develop your own? If you think partnership with God would be amazing, then this book may change your life.

God as Your Business Partner

In the world of business, it isnt easy to form a partnership with a successful business executive. You must bring a lot to offer your potential partner, such as capital or talent. To be Gods partner, you might assume that you would need to meet extremely high standards. Not so. God is willing to associate with those who dont seem to have anything to offer and even with those who have a disreputable background but wish to change. God values and invests in people. His projects are focused on people, not on real estate, products, or money. The most important thing to God is a persons commitment to Gods vision, mission, and values.

The Bible affirms Gods interest in walking alongside us and participating in our daily activities, whether they involve business matters or personal issues related to family or health. Some people, like the biblical character Jabez, simply ask God for help; they want God to support them without offering him anything in return (1 Chron. 4:910). Others show gratitude to God, like Jacob who promised to give back a tenth of all that God gave him (Gen. 28:2022).

Then there are those who ask God for nothing and offer him 100 percent of all they have, such as the apostle Peter, a fisherman who left everything to follow Jesus (Mark 10:28). In short, we all have the opportunity to associate with God in all areas of our lives.

Handing over your decisions and your convictions to Godin full or in parttakes a lot of faith. Faith is the belief that God will act, at the appropriate time, moved by immense wisdom, goodness, and sovereignty. You must have faith to pray, to remain in an unpleasant place, and to believe that God will change your situation at the opportune time, according to his plans.
