Pray Together

iWork4Him PowerThought ·

2026/01/15

Does God care for the people you work with? Of course, He does. In step 4 of the iWork4Him Nation Covenant, look for opportunities to pray with others. When you continually work alongside the same people, you know their typical manners and facial expressions. When you notice someone having an off day, ask them, "How are you doing?" when they say "I'm Fine," keep asking, " No really, how are you doing? I noticed you looked a little down today" then wait and be QUIET. When they have shared what is on

Break Down Walls

2026/01/14

Do you want to see your workplace as a mission field? In step 3 of the iWork4Him Nation Covenant, we encourage you to befriend your co-workers or employees outside of the office. Why? Our work relationships are work focused and can be shallow. When you build friendships on your own turf, outside of work, real relationships develop. When you let someone into your world, it breaks down walls. Breaking down walls builds trust. Eventually, they will trust you when you share your Jesus story, the work He

Serve Above and Beyond

Do you want to see your workplace transformed and have God unlock His purpose for you in your work? Step two of the iWork4Him Nation Covenant helps transform your workplace mindset into a mission-focused workplace ministry mindset. Start looking for ways to serve your co-workers, bosses, and/or employees outside your job requirements. Why? Anyone can do a job that meets expectations, but how many people help others meet or exceed expectations? When you go out of the way to help others at work with a

Do you want to see your workplace transformed and have God unlock His purpose for you in your work? I thought so. Step one of the iWork4Him Nation Covenant is the most powerful step you can take at work to transform your workplace and your heart. Prayer - Start praying for those you work alongside every day. Pray for your co-workers, bosses, and employees by name. You can even pray for their spouses and kids. After you have done this for a few months, have a conversation like this "Hey, I have been

Live Life in God's Power

2026/01/09

1 Corinthians 6:19 says, "do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is IN YOU, whom you have received from God?" Whoa! Think about that for a moment: the Holy Spirit… the very presence of God… lives INSIDE of our bodies! How crazy is THAT! The God of the universe has taken up residence inside of us, where He not only guides us as a wise counselor but also intercedes on our behalf and empowers us to carry out the good works prepared in advance for us. If God lives in us,

Gratitude Over Comparison

iWork4Him PowerThought ·

2026/01/08

Why is it that the grass always looks greener on the other side? Well, in today's world it's because the grass probably has a photo filter on it! Did you know that the average person spends two and a half hours scrolling through social media per day?! That's more time than it takes to workout, make dinner, and clean the house! This constant access to the edited highlights of our friends' and coworkers' lives leads us to compare, compare, compare. But Proverbs 4:27 says, "Do not turn to the right or

God's Best and HIghest

iWork4Him PowerThought ·

2026/01/07

What's the difference between believing IN God and trusting God? A San Antonio business owner got to find out, when he had to choose between going to work on Wall Street as a fat cat, or listen to God, and chose what's best for his family. In Matthew 6:33 God advises us to "Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need." In the midst of your business decision making today, are you seeking first the Kingdom of God? Are you seeking God first

Seek Out God's Story

iWork4Him PowerThought ·

2026/01/06

Chuck Proudfit -- founder of the ministry At Work on Purpose -- told us on a recent show, "to start thinking like a journalist..." What does that mean? And what exactly do journalists do? Well, they find where the story is, and then they join it! And like journalists, we, as Christ-followers, have the opportunity to find what God is doing and join him! Ephesians 2:10 in the Message Translation says, "God creates each of us by Christ Jesus to join him in the work he does, the good work he has gotten

Be Open to God's 2026 Plans

iWork4Him PowerThought ·

2026/01/05

When I graduated from high school, I had my life all planned out. For years I had felt God calling me into ministry, so naturally I planned to attend Seminary…. But then God asked me to take a right turn in my vocation - He asked me to go into business. At the time I didn't understand how I could feel called to ministry AND the marketplace, but today I can look back and see that all those years WERE ministry and that he was laying the groundwork for iWork4Him. Isaiah 55:8 says, "My thoughts are

New Year's Eve is a time for realignment, reconsideration, and recommitment to the faith you proclaim every Sunday and attempt to live out Monday through Saturday.  What is one thing you would like to see God do through and in you in 2026?

Release the Bad

iWork4Him PowerThought ·

2025/12/30

If you are like me, there are likely a few things that happened in 2025 that you would like to forget. Things that were a burden to you, failures you experienced and things that felt out of your control. These are in the past now. In Christ there is no living in shame or regret. There is only today. Yesterday is a learning experience, today is a prep for tomorrow. Release the troubles of 2025 into the very capable hands of our heavenly Father and look forward to what He has for you in 2026.

Remembering 2025

2025/12/29

As we face the ending of another year, it is always good for our soul to look back and see all that God did for us, with us and through us, especially as we lived out our faith at work. In the Old Testament they stacked stones to remind them of God's awesome power and delivery. Take time to stack some memory stones for 2025. Remember and share all that Our Heavenly Father has done so you are ready for all He will do in 2026.

Your Work is a Gift

iWork4Him PowerThought ·

2025/12/26

Merry Christmas. Have you ever thought about your work as a gift?  Not just being grateful that you have a job/career/business and that it in itself is a gift, but what about the work that you do. Can that be a gift too? It's hard to imagine somedays but we impact somebody every day with our work. It may be a customer or an employee of the company you work with or an owner/stockholder. Any way you look at it, the way you do your work can be a gift to someone. Wrap your work gift in excellence this

A Christmas Light

iWork4Him PowerThought ·

2025/12/25

Merry Christmas. One of Jim's favorite iWork4Him sayings is this "As a Jesus Follower, everything about you should be changing and everyone around you should be benefiting from your faith whether they believe in Jesus or not, that's the kingdom." Jesus Said you are the Light of the World, a city on a hill that cannot be hidden. This Christmas practice being a light to everyone who is shrouded in darkness. That is a gift everyone can receive.

Merry Christmas! As you wrap up all the gifts you are giving this year, let us challenge you. Perhaps this year you can find a way to wrap up Love and Joy and Peace. Perhaps you can find a way to send a card with Patience, Kindness and Goodness written in a note. Maybe even at your Workplace Christmas party you can display Gentleness, Faithfulness and Self Control. These are the gifts that really matter and really last. You can be the present that keeps on giving all year long. Almost better than

Jesus Came to Restore

iWork4Him PowerThought ·

2025/12/23

Merry Christmas, one of the things Jim and I say all the time on the iWork4Him Podcast is Jesus came to restore all things, All the things that were lost in the garden when Adam and Eve turned their backs on our Father. Because of Jesus we can see our Physical, Spiritual and Emotional Health redeemed and restored. No Christmas Present can do all that. You are a gift to everyone around you as you experience this redemption and restoration. Give yourself away this Christmas.

God's Nearness in the Ordinary

2025/12/22

Merry Christmas from Martha and I, so often Christmas is distracting and we get off focus on what the whole season of celebration is about. God came in His physical presence to transform our world and our thinking. Just like Adam and Eve walked regularly in the garden in the cool of the day, Jesus came so that we can walk with Him by our side in the ordinary of every day. Think about it, Our God who created everything wants to walk with you in your whole life, including your work. Now that is a

Get on the School Board, Not the Sidelines

iWork4Him PowerThought ·

2025/12/19

Every year, people are elected to the local boards of education in your area. How many of them are believers? Less than 10%. Getting on the local school Board of Education does not require a degree; it requires a willingness and obedience to a call from God. As believers, we have walked away from the public school system for far too long, and it is time to take a stand and get involved where possible. The kids of this next public school generation need you. We celebrate you believers who are
