When Business Becomes God's
Seeing God at work
A New Kind of Movement
Something is happening across the world of business that defies conventional categories. It doesn’t look like a traditional revival, yet it pulses with the unmistakable heartbeat of God. It’s subtle, often unseen by mainstream narratives, but it’s real—and it’s growing.
From boardrooms in London to startups in Lagos, from socially-minded enterprises in the US to family businesses in Southeast Asia, a new generation of business people is responding to a higher call. They’re not just building for profit. They’re building with purpose. And more than that, they’re building in partnership with the Spirit of God.
Kingdom Business: More Than a Trend
Kingdom business isn’t a trend or a branding gimmick. It’s not a Christian-themed hustle. It’s a surrendered way of doing work that begins with God and ends with His glory. It means operating businesses that are led by the Spirit, grounded in righteousness, and shaped by God’s values— and miracles are part of the story.
One of the clearest examples of this is the International Christian Chamber of Commerce (ICCC). Born out of prayer and prophetic vision in the 1990s, the ICCC exists to help believers integrate their journey with God into the heart of their business. With chapters around the world, ICCC equips leaders not only to excel but to partner with God in every contract signed, every staff member hired, every risk taken.
ICCC UK & Ireland has been a quiet yet powerful force—cultivating spaces where faith and business don’t just coexist, they co-create. Members share testimonies of divine provision, unlikely breakthroughs, and strategies birthed in prayer rooms that end up shifting entire industries.
But ICCC isn’t alone.
A Global Movement in Many Forms
Across the globe, a variety of groups are walking a similar road. Business as Mission (BAM) initiatives help entrepreneurs create sustainable, impactful companies in developing nations. Kingdom Investors, founded in Australia, teaches business leaders how to steward wealth and influence with godly principles. In South Africa, communities like Nehemiah E-Community are mentoring small business owners in how to align their operations with God’s heart for justice, integrity, and hope.
These groups may differ in form, but they share the same DNA: obedience to the prophetic call of God in the sphere of business.
Miracles at the Office? Yes.
This movement is not just about values—it’s about encounters. It’s about praying for a co-worker and seeing them healed. About seeking God’s wisdom for a deal and receiving insight that turns the tide. It’s about businesses surviving recessions when logic said they shouldn’t. About entire teams experiencing peace and purpose in the midst of pressure.
These are not isolated events. They are signs of a shift. The same God who anointed artisans in Exodus to build the tabernacle, who gave Joseph economic strategies for Egypt, who empowered Lydia as a businesswoman in the early Church—is still working today. And He is drawing a new generation of business people into a sacred partnership.
What Does This Mean for You?
If you are in business—or aspire to be—you’re invited. You don’t have to be a seasoned CEO or own a company. You simply need to say yes to God’s invitation to journey with Him in your work.
Ask Him for wisdom in your daily decisions. Invite Him into your spreadsheets. Seek His presence in your meetings. Listen for His voice—not just in quiet times, but in quarterly reports, supply chain challenges, and product launches.
The Kingdom of God is not confined to church buildings. It is advancing in studios, in boardrooms, in cafes and coworking spaces. And when we say yes to building with God, our work becomes worship.
Final Word: This Is Only the Beginning
The days of separating faith and business are ending. We are entering an era where the presence of God is being welcomed into every sector of society—finance, fashion, tech, education, media, trade. And those who say yes to Him in their work are becoming part of a movement that is as prophetic as it is practical.
If you’ve felt a holy discontent with business as usual—pay attention. That ache may be God inviting you into Kingdom business.
Come with open hands. Come with faith. Come expecting God to speak.
Because He is.
And He’s speaking to businesspeople.
