Abraham yielded everything to his nephew, built an altar, and took on the challenge of raising spiritual vessels. Likewise, businesspeople must never be defeated by Satan in regards to spiritual aspects; instead, they must prepare practical vessels so that Satan can fully kneel before them. Then, what is that?

1. People Who Protect in Times of Crises
Phoebe, a figure in the Bible, was a helper who served not only Paul, but also the church. On a daily basis and during important time schedules, she carried out her mission with a sense of responsibility. In particular, Phoebe was tasked with delivering letters that Paul wrote which meant that she was physically healthy and reliable. Like this, businesspeople must be able to take on the role of trustworthy patrons in the eyes of the Lord's servants and believers.

2. Hosts Who Are with You and Take Responsibility in Times of Crises
Whenever there was a crisis, Priscilla and Aquila didn’t evade the situation; instead they risked their lives. They were the ones who did everything for Paul and the church. It’s easy for you to think that evangelism and missions can be done well if you have enough money and materials. But the really important factor is your willingness to be a part of the time schedule that God needs and to be responsible for it. In the end, you need to make a spiritual resolution that money and materials cannot resolve.

Although the missions field is facing difficulties, it’s also a field where God especially works. With this belief, businesspeople must start the prayer of 24 hours and work together in heart and materials to protect the Lord's servants.

Dear God, to the extent of staking my life, help me to become a patron, fellow worker, and host to save the missions field. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
