Ideals must be investigated to establish a proper foundation. A good ideal is not a great ideal until it has proven merits.

A person having good talents or skills, and being a quick learner, doesn’t mean automatic business success. Business ideals must have a plan to show its functionality.

Most entrepreneurs think they need investors right away. The real work comes in trial runs. Projections should look good on paper and proven successful in actionable ways.

A business minded person purposely decides if they will offer goods, services, or both. Other things going into the business plan should include:

• Manpower needed
• space
• storage
• Location
• Target audience
• Setup
• Equipment
• Cost ratio
• Stationary or mobile business
• How to function in power outages

Discover history and truths for the business interest. Investigate the potentials for success and failures. D o a deep dive investigation and do not listen to all the fluff stories of Ponzi Schemes.

Interview people one on one. Don’t just study reviews and online reviews.

Find out who actually needs this type business and service. Ask about challenges people have had with similar businesses.

Form a team for trial runs. Don’t let people know your work is for a start-up business.

Discouragement will keep you away from God’s Plan. Offer goods and services for free.

Request surveys for free products and services.

If you encounter resistance, tell people you are conducting a survey. This survey aims to understand what interests people in this part of the country.

The most important things for starting a new business is to ask these questions.

Did God give me this plan?

Am I acting out of my self-will only?

Jesus was a Carpenter. He never hit His head. He never picked up a hammer and nails and said, “I think I want to build something.”

Whether or not His business was passed down by His Father Joseph — Jesus took ownership of His work. His signature was on everything He made.

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.” John 1:1-3.

“And he went out from thence, and came into his own country; and his disciples follow him. And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence hath this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands? Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.” Mark 6:1-3.

Jesus learned His profession with passion. He nurtured His craft. He worked paying attention to details — especially those things missing (faith). Jesus worked long hours with skill, precision, and excellence.

He began to build things teaching Him the more how to build people.

“Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him, he gave commandment to depart unto the other side. And a certain scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.
And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him.” Matthew 8:18-23.

God did a survey of sin all over the world. He saw a great need for His business — “Rebuilding everything Satan tried to destroy”.

God invested Jesus to take on suffering for the Salvation of all men.

God had the perfect business plan to abolish sin — His Son Jesus.

Christ gave of Himself freely. He did a trial run on earth to prove perfection in executing His Father’s plan.

Jesus did actions on earth to prove He loved all people. Jesus not only offered goods and services — He offered up His life. Jesus business was mobile. He went everywhere His services were needed.

Jesus never had a power outage because He was permanently connected to the power source — God the Father!

“Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me. But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. I and my Father are one.” John 10:25-30.

His Profit and Loss Statement always showed profit.

Make sure your business follows “Jesus’ Business Model”.

“And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.” John 12:32.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.” John 3:16-17.

“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth The LORD Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.” Romans 10:8-12.

“And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) and hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: that in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; that at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: but now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; and that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: and came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; and are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; in whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in The LORD: in whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.” Ephesians 2:1-22.
