The 2020 CBMC National Day of Prayer and Fasting for the Businesses of America was a powerful time of prayer for business, government and community leaders during this time of testing.

This time is set aside as we dedicate our lunch hour to pray and fast for the businesses of America. We are inviting everyone to join this 50-minute event, streaming at noon in every time zone. All business people are invited to join us!
During times of crisis, CBMC stands ready to answer the call to prayer. Businesses across our nation are struggling; business owners aren’t sure what the future will hold. Small business is the hardest hit. Let us stand in the gap together and turn our faces toward God. Let us pray!

“Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name” Matthew 6:9.
Lord, you designed this day for Your glory and our good. We ask for wisdom and the power to obey. Our business lives are the best opportunity to show the world Your infinite power. Lord, our work is in your hands. Be glorified through it.
“May Your kingdom come. May Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven” Matthew 6:10.
Lord, the workplace can be a dog-eat-dog place. Give us hearts that are wise and compassionate to lead as Jesus did. In a world that is fraught with shortages and broken promises, help us work as teams to bring improving processes and creative solutions.
Lord, our world seems to hold grudges and judge harshly. Help us to see the value of each person made in the image of God. Thank you for the promise to be with us always. Bring Your presence to mind as the Day of Prayer approaches. Give us hearts that pray. Thank you for the opportunity to bring our requests to you during these troubling times. May our prayers be pleasing unto you and may we live in such a way as to hear you someday say, “Well done my good and faithful servant.” Amen.
The Christian Businessmen’s Connection of Montgomery County is a workplace ministry network for mutual encouragement, support, and discipleship training based on the Christian Business Men’s Connection (CBMC). CBMC was started in Chicago in 1930 during the Great Depression by a group of Christian businessmen who came together and started praying for each other and for the presence of God’s Kingdom in each others’ businesses.
Our Montgomery County CBMC team (for men only) meets weekly to encourage each other spiritually and to practically pursue the disciple-making work of the Great Commission — meeting men where they are and and helping one another to become the men that God intends us to be. We welcome men from different church backgrounds and economic strata who are called to represent Christ and His kingdom in the workplace.
