Historic Businesswomen

Romans 16:1~2 I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a servant of the church at Cenchreae, that you may welcome her in the Lord in a way worthy of the saints, and help her in whatever she may need from you, for she has been a patron of many and of myself as well.

  There are three important types of time schedules. The first is making an accurate start, just as Abraham made his correct start after Lot left him(Genesis 13:14~18). Furthermore, you must go toward the goal of evangelism while correctly receiving the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Likewise, Paul’s team followed God’s guidance through the Holy Spirit(Acts 19:1~7) and was used for evangelism(Romans 16:25~27). What must you do in order to receive answers as a historic businessperson?

1. People Who Did Spiritual Business and Industry
  You must start with the spiritual business and industry. All the main figures of the spiritual business and industry that God started were women. Jochebed relayed all the covenants to her son;(Exodus 2:1~10) Rahab hid the two spies;(Joshua 2:1~24) and Hannah’s prayer changed the age;(1 Samuel 1:9~11 and 2:1~10) Likewise, the main figures in Mark’s upper room were Mary and the women(Acts 1:14). The people who helped the evangelist Paul were also women. Phoebe was Paul’s guardian and Priscilla was Paul’s co-worker(Romans 16:1~2 and 25~27).

2. Businesswomen Who Carried out the Gospel Movement with Actual Business and Industry
  The businesspeople in the Bible did world evangelization with actual business and industry. Lydia who lived in the city of Thyatira sold purple cloth and goods. At that time, people who used dark colored silk were the upper class. For Lydia, who possessed the Gospel, her business was connected to world evangelization(Acts 16:14~15). By producing and selling tents, Priscilla wholly helped Paul’s ministry(Acts 18:1~4).

3. Business and Industry Evangelists Who Helped Field Evangelists Throughout Their Lives
  Businesspeople must discover the important path of undoubtedly receiving answers. God has an important objective for businesswomen which is to become the protectors for the evangelist(Romans 16:1~2) and co-workers(Romans 16:3~4). Lydia even urged Paul and his team to come and stay at her home(Acts 16:15). Businesswomen who possess the spiritual mystery and the mystery to save the field will surely be victorious.

[Prayer of the Evangelist] Dear God, may I start with the covenant and receive the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Let everything I do be used for world evangelization.
