Bible Verses for Business Owners - Book Proverbs, Chapter 6, Verse 20

In the book of Proverbs, chapter 6, verse 20, it is written: "My son, keep your father’s command and do not forsake your mother’s teaching." This verse speaks to the importance of obedience and respect for authority. Just as a child should heed their parents' guidance and instructions, so too should we as entrepreneurs and small business owners listen to the wisdom of those who have come before us.

In the world of business, there are often times when we may be faced with difficult decisions or dilemmas. It is during these moments that we must remember the value of obedience. By following the advice and teachings of those who have more experience or knowledge in a particular area, we can avoid making costly mistakes or errors in judgment.
For example, imagine you are a small business owner considering whether to expand your product line into a new market. Your father figure in this scenario could be a mentor or advisor who suggests caution and thorough market research before making such a significant decision. Your mother figure could represent industry best practices or tried-and-true strategies that have been successful for others in similar situations.
By heeding their counsel and not forsaking their teachings, you can navigate through challenges with greater confidence and clarity. Obedience in this context does not mean blind submission but rather a willingness to learn from those who have walked the path before us.
So let us remember the words from Proverbs 6:20 - "My son, keep your father’s command,and do not forsake your mother’s teaching." Let us embrace obedience as a guiding principle in our entrepreneurial journey, drawing strength from the wisdom of others as we strive towards success in our businesses.
