7-19-2022 Devotion: Be Honest

 Proverbs 11:1: "A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is His delight." God does enter into business; you can take Him into partnership with you. However, you can’t form a partnership with Him if you are dishonest. If you are honest, He would like to be your partner. The Christian businessman is to be honest and a man of integrity. I saw a post on Facebook about a businessman having a conversation with Jesus Christ. The man said to the Lord, "Should we put a fish on our hats so people will know we are a Christian company?" Lord Jesus responded by saying, "No, let's show them you are a Christian company by your fair dealing, excellent work, and your integrity." While I am not suggesting that the Lord Jeus Christ would have had the conversation, however, I am suggesting that the principle put forth is accurate. We are to be fair in our dealings. We are to treat people with respect and never cheat anyone. God will bless a company that adheres to such principles. Be honest, always.
