devotional guide with scriptures for business women



Balancing faith, work, and womanhood can feel overwhelming.


Many of us long to live out biblical womanhood and Christian femininity, yet we find ourselves tied to a full-time office job or navigating the chaos of a work from home routine.


Some days it feels inspiring, and other days we may wonder, “How do I be a woman of God at work if I hate my job?”


The good news is this: God’s Word speaks to every season of life — even the 9–5 grind.


Let’s walk through how to embrace godly womanhood while working full-time, guided by Scripture and the Spirit.



Biblical Womanhood Beyond the Home


For many, the phrase biblical womanhood calls to mind passages like Proverbs 31. We see the picture of a capable, hardworking woman who provides for her family, manages her household, and blesses her community.


Notice verse 17: “She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.”


This shows us that work itself is not the enemy — rather, work is part of our calling.


Whether you’re at home, in an office, or somewhere in between, your labour can reflect Christ. Godly womanhood is not about location but about devotion — living each day with a heart centred on Him.




When Work Feels Heavy


Some days we feel the tension of work more strongly. You might even wonder: “How do I be a woman of God at work if I hate my job?”


Scripture gives us comfort here. “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters”. - Colossians 3:23.


Even if the work environment feels draining, we can reframe it as service to God.


This doesn’t mean ignoring frustrations — it means bringing them to Him, trusting that He can use even this season for His glory and your growth.




Finding Strength in the Word


In times of weariness, lean on these empowering scriptures for a woman of God:



Psalm 28:7

“The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me".


Proverbs 31:25

“She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come”.


Philippians 2:14–15

“Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure".



These scriptures about women remind us that strength, dignity, and perseverance come not from our circumstances but from Christ within us.

Honour God With Excellence – Whether it’s in your work from home routine or during a long day at the office, let excellence be an offering to Him.

When my job feels heavy, remind me that I work unto You, not man.


Teach me how to be a woman of God at work — even in hard seasons — and to reflect Christ in all I do.


In Jesus’ name, Amen.
