Proverbs 3:5–10: Trust God With Your Business
Proverbs 3:5–10 calls the wealth builder away from self-reliance and toward wholehearted trust in God, expressed concretely by honoring him with the firstfruits of increase. Its promises sit inside a covenant world of wisdom, not a guarantee of business results.
Luke 14:28–33: Counting the Cost of Discipleship
Jesus uses a builder and a king to make one point: beginning what you cannot finish is folly. Discipleship is a counted commitment, not a technique for business success.
