You are God's Plan A

God’s Plan A: Finding Purpose in the Setbacks of Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship is an exciting, dynamic journey—but let’s be honest, it’s also a place where failure and setbacks often feel like regular visitors. If you’ve ever launched a business, tried to follow a vision, or stepped out on faith to build something new, you know the highs are high—and the lows can be brutal.

But here’s the truth: You’re not here by accident.

When you know there is divine purpose in your work, and you're crystal clear that you are on assignment, even the tough times take on a new meaning. What seems like a detour or disaster could actually be a divine setup.

A setback is a setup for a comeback.It’s not the end of the road—it’s just a bend. Whether it's a failed product, a lost client, or a moment of complete burnout, these moments have the power to teach, stretch, and reposition you for greater impact, depending on how you respond.

Romans 8:28 (AMPC) reminds us:

"We are assured and know that [God being a partner in their labor] all things work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good to and for those who love God and are called according to [His] design and purpose."

Yes, even this—whatever your “this” is right now—is part of the plan.

Let’s make something clear: entrepreneurs are not God’s Plan B.You—yes, you—are a part of Plan A.

God is raising up men and women who will carry His wisdom, integrity, and creativity into boardrooms, kitchens, garages, and tech startups. He’s placing purpose in the hearts of those building businesses, launching nonprofits, or creating something the world’s never seen before.

If you’ve ever doubted your calling or questioned whether your entrepreneurial venture has spiritual significance, let this be your reminder: God has a plan and a purpose for your business. He’s not just using preachers, missionaries, or worship leaders. He’s using you, the dreamers, the risk-takers, and the vision-carriers.

So next time you hit a wall, remember:God isn't done.This is a setup for your comeback.You are part of His divine strategy.You are His Plan A.
