Welcome back to another episode of the Faith in Business podcast. I'm your host, Mia Renee, and this is

the place to be if you want to keep God at the center of everything you do as an entrepreneur,

as a leader, and as an influencer. Let's get into another powerful topic. Today we're going to

talk about how God's provision is not based on your performance. God provides because that's what God does. God is a provider.

It is a characteristic of God. That is not something that we can control or not control.

Ultimately, he is our provider. If you have a business, the business is not your provider.

God is the provider and he's provided the business and the

But I have not been selling any kind of group programs. I haven't been doing any launches or anything, just like I got into six-figure launches consistently, where when I would do a launch, I would make six figures, and that's great. And then if you do a bunch of those in a year,

you can make a significant amount of money, right? That's just that's just facts. But for me,

I got to six figure launches and then I took my foot off the gas and didn't make any offers,

do any launches for years now. But God has provided for me in this season. And here's what God has shown me

during this season is that I was looking at my business as my source of provision rather than God

as my source of provision. I no longer do that. Whether I build the business or I don't build the

business, whether I turn the business into a ministry and I'm no
