Genesis 30v27,30 ‘V27-And Laban said unto him, I pray thee, if I have found favour in thine eyes, tarry: for I have learned by experience that the Lord hath blessed me for thy sake. V30-For it was little which thou hadst before I came, and it is now increased unto a multitude; and the Lord hath blessed thee since my coming: and now when shall I provide for mine own house also?
The grace of God is in various levels. There are graces and there are graces! This is why our God is referred to as the God of all grace. 1Pet5v10. God has grace for everything; if I will be more specific, today, God has grace for business exploits. This grace is what we see in manifestation in the lives of covenant people like Abraham, Isaac and even Jacob that made them flourish in their business pursuits. As you can see from our text scripture (Gen30v27,30), Jacob experienced this grace for business exploits. The grace of God made life easy for him under his wicked uncle (Laban). God performed a bold and daring feat through his hands in his cattle business. I have discovered that this grace is available to every child of God but the fact that it’s available does not mean you will experience it. This is true because there are ways of connecting with this grace if it’s going to work for you. Ps103v7
So how can you provoke this grace to speak in your business? You can do this by:
1. Making God your senior partner. This simply means to partner with God in your business. Acts 16v14-15. So what does it entail to make God your senior partner in Business? It entails the following:
-God is the master over your business and you are the disciple. It can also mean that God is the boss and you are the employee.
-God is the owner or head of the business, while you are the steward
-God has the final say or biggest stake in the business.
-God is involved in all your business dealings or transactions. Pro16v3
My dearly beloved, this is what the concept of making God your senior partner is all about. So to what extent is God in control of your business? I have also discovered from experience that partnering with God pays off huge dividends because nobody loses out in their partnership with God.
So how can someone partner with God? You can partner with God in your business by:
-Giving a certain percentage of your profit towards his Work or kingdom. From what I have seen, people start off with a tenth of their profit and it grows as the business grows. Gen 28v20-22
-Building your business on the ethical principles of the word of God. Some of these principles include integrity, honesty, justice, fairness etc. Pro20v21;21v6
-Allowing God to be your Leader and Director. Ps37v23
My dear brothers and sisters, this is what makes God your senior partner is all about. Are you ready to make this transition in your business?

Prayer for Today: Lord, I make room for you in my business endeavors from today; in Jesus name, amen. Be my guide and my leader!
CONFESSION: I refuse to do business only naturally speaking; rather, I tap into the supernatural means of doing business. The grace for business exploits will speak in my life. Therefore, my business will not be ordinary but through God, I break new grounds and territories in my business pursuits!
