21 Days Of Prayer For Your Business Overview

March 15, 2018

Why hello there! I hope you are having the most fantastic day. I wanted to take a second and chat with you about the 21 Days Of Prayer For Your Business study. Have you heard about it yet? If you haven’t, you can read more about the heart and passion behind it here. This post however, is going to give you a very brief overview of what we cover in our time together each day. You will quickly discover the topics we discuss apply to life in general. I firmly believe you can never go wrong when you allow the Lord to be the center of all you do, even your business. Let’s dive in, shall we?

Intro: We start off the study with a bit of a backstory of my journey and why I’m passionate about building a foundation on prayer. I share some of my family’s ups and downs and hopefully encourage you; if we can walk this out, you can too.

 

Day One: Giving God Control – The very first thing we need to do when beginning a new business venture or when we feel stuck and lost in our career, is to stop and give God control. We acknowledge Him in all our ways. This is where the foundation begins. Oh, we still have to work. We don’t just pray and sit around and do nothing. It’s a heart matter. We are telling the Lord we want Him to lead and guide us and have His way. In day one, we discuss the many reasons we fear handing over control and why it’s actually the safest place we could ever be.

 

Day Two: Freedom From The Past – Once you give God control, it’s time to begin walking the path out. We have a very difficult time walking out the road in front of us if we are constantly looking in the rear view mirror of our past. If we want to move forward, we have to look forward. To do that, we must find freedom from those things in our past that hold us back. Let’s face it, we all have a past. If you are living and breathing, yesterday happened. I’m not sure what your yesterday looked like, but in day two we tackle those issues and we discover the tools we have at our fingertips to demolish those from our lives.

 

Day Three: You Are Uniquely Made – Now that you are walking in freedom from your past, it’s time to discover your unique design. You are uniquely made with specific gifts and talents. You are not an accident. You have great purpose. When you embrace your unique design in your business, you shine bright and impact all those around you. When growing a business, it’s so easy to focus on our weaknesses and shortcomings, rather than study our strengths and talents. On day three we dive in and figure out how we are uniquely made.

 

Day Four: Catching a Vision – You have given God control, you are finding freedom from the past, and you are embracing your unique design. Yay. Now it’s time to catch a vision. Vision isn’t always envisioning the end picture, many times it’s just seeing one step in front of the other. When the Lord is the center of your journey, He lights up your path and keeps you moving in the right direction. On day four we talk all about catching a vision for your business. When we don’t have vision, we feel like we are walking around aimlessly. It’s time to change all of that and get moving in the right direction.

 

Day Five: Be Intentional – Once you have vision, even if it’s just doing what’s put before you, you must be intentional and actually work. Many times we know the things to do, however, we just don’t execute those things. Why is that? Being intentional is vital in every area of our lives, especially our businesses. I’m all about giving God control and praying, but He still wants us to put action to our prayers. On day five we discuss many ways you can be intentional, but we focus specifically on your values. What are your values and are they getting into all that you do?

 

Day Six: Always Growing – The day you quit growing, is the day you quit growing. That’s a profound statement, right? If you want to experience growth in your business, then you must grow you. Seems simple enough, but the truth is, it can be a bit painful. The first thing we have to face is our pride. Admitting we don’t have it all together is a step in the right direction. Now comes the fun part, stretching. Ouch. This can be a bit uncomfortable at times, but it is always worth it in the end. On day six we dig in and figure out all the ways we can be growing. It’s not as scary as it might sound. I promise.

 

Day Seven: Don’t Give Up – I have another profound statement for you. The day you give up, is the day you give up. I know, I’m full of amazing quotes. The day you give up, is that day you will never know what was right around the corner. Once we hand over control to God, begin walking in freedom, discover our unique design, catch a vision, become intentional and embrace growth, oh man, it’s getting kicked up to crazy level. This is when opposition may pop it’s ugly self into the scene. You my friend are not going to fall victim to these roadblocks. Nope. You are going to keep on keeping on. Day seven is all about staying in the game.

 

Day Eight: Living A Life Of Worship – When you begin embracing the Lord into every aspect of you life, you are living a life of worship. Worship is honoring the Lord. You can worship Him in your business, relationships, finances, and so much more. Your conversations can be worship to the Lord. Your home can be used in worship to the Lord. This is where life gets fun and you begin to truly thrive. For me personally, this was a lightbulb moment in 2013 when I was praying for a vision for a new business. I share details of this moment in day eight and we discuss the many ways you can live a life of worship as well.

 

Day Nine: Embrace Excellence – When you embrace your gifts and talents with the tools and resources you currently have on hand in your business, you are walking out excellence. Excellence is actually obtainable. People get a little freaked out over that word because they confuse it with perfectionism. There is a major difference. One makes you better and the other makes you bitter. You can never go wrong embracing excellence; it will make you stand out. On day nine we go over all the ways you can embrace excellence, and you will quickly find it’s not as hard as you may believe.

 

Day Ten: Perfectionism Weighs You Down –There is nothing more draining than being weighed down by the constant struggle and striving for perfection. My friend, this is never going to happen in your life. The moment we can distinguish the difference between excellence and perfectionism, is the moment we can have that weight lifted. Perfectionism sucks the joy from your soul. It leaves you constantly feeling like you are not enough. You are not perfect, you never will be, but you are enough. On day ten we take a deep breath and we give ourselves some grace. We’ve got too much to accomplish and enjoy on this journey to be weighed down by the myth of perfection.

 

Day Eleven: Creative Problem Solving – When obstacles come to the table in your business, do you freak out? Are you immediately thinking of all the ways this is going to be the nail in your coffin? Don’t let these times stall you, or worse, paralyze you. Put on your thinking cap and become a creative problem solver. On day eleven we  search for solutions and turn your obstacles into opportunities. When you shift your thinking in this area, you will soar to the top. It’s time to look at these situations in a whole new light. You may even come to welcome them, well, maybe.

 

Day Twelve: Building Community – We are better together. There is safety in numbers. Have you ever heard either one of those statements? It’s so true. When we build community, we are locking arms with others to walk out this journey of life. The path we are on can get bumpy and turbulent at times, even lonely. We need to have others walking beside us to strengthen us and keeping us encouraged and inspired. We also need to be that person to others. On day twelve we look at all the ways we can build community within our business. We should never be too busy to neglect this vital component on our journey.

 

Day Thirteen: Surviving Conflict  – Let’s just keep it real. We are imperfect people dealing with other imperfect people while on this journey of life. That can quickly be a recipe for conflict. Am I right, or am I right? Conflict is yet another obstacle or roadblock that stalls us or stops us right in our tracks. We can survive it though, I am sure of it. We simply must realize that very few people wake up evil. Everyone has a backstory, and many times hurts and fears that come from those backstories effect our interactions with one another. On day thirteen we fight through this difficult topic of conflict, but we survive it, oh, we survive it.

 

Day Fourteen: Fight For Your Family – Here’s the deal, I love business, however, it’s very important to remember the things that are of the utmost importance. Outside of our relationship with the Lord, our family is one of the most precious things we should nurture. We want our business and our family to be successful and thrive. How do we do that? On day fourteen we become intentional and we fight for it. We take the same topics we are covering in this study for our business and we apply it to our family. It’s going to be one of the best things you will ever do, trust me.

 

Day Fifteen: Integrity Matters – Walking with integrity in your business is vital. It’s doing the things that should be done when nobody else is watching. It’s making the right decisions even when you walk through turbulent times. You know, when times are tough, it becomes easier to justify compromising your values. It’s just not worth it. Don’t fall into that trap. Speaking of values, on day fifteen we discuss how having integrity is actually embracing your values into your business. It’s so important for you to be true to the things you are most passionate about in life. Yep, integrity, it matters.

 

Day Sixteen: Be Courageous – It’s time to begin doing some things that scare you a bit. I know, I’m sorry, this day had to happen. It’s time to get off the comfort zone couch and be bold and courageous. Let’s step into some of our fears. Are you with me? Don’t be scared. If we want to stretch and grow, like we mentioned earlier, we must embrace some courage. On day sixteen we pull up our bootstraps and we face our fears head on. Oh, I’m not saying it’s going to be easy, but it will be worth it. Hey, do you know what? I believe in you. You my friend are a warrior.

 

Day Seventeen: Be Still – Once your business has started rockin’ and rollin’, it’s not always smooth sailing from there on out. How’s that for being a Debbie Downer. Yikes. If you find yourself worn out and feeling overwhelmed or defeated, just stop for a second. Pause. Be still. On day seventeen we realign and make sure we are still giving God control. This journey is a process. It’s a marathon, not a sprint. As we begin to hand over control and trust the Lord, we go from striving to thriving. In a weird way, it feels almost effortless. Sometimes we just need a new and fresh wind in our sail.

 

Day Eighteen: Competition Complements You – The world says you have competitors. This could be another company or a person that’s in direct competition with your business. Your mindset regarding these people is vital. You can allow it to complement you or consume you with worry or pride. You either think you don’t measure up or you are better than someone, both very damaging. Competition isn’t bad; it’s actually very good. On day eighteen we look at all the ways your competitors can make you better. I realize this seems to go against everything we’ve been taught, but I dare you to give it a try.

 

Day Nineteen: Examine Your Experiences – Pay close attention to all the things you experience as you are walking out your business ventures. Actually, don’t just pay close attention, but examine your experiences. When you begin to examine the good, the bad, and the ugly, your eyes are opened to many ways you can grow and embrace excellence in your business. On day nineteen we do a ton of examining. I share a bit of my dirty laundry when it comes to “examining experiences”. We also spend time reviewing all the days we’ve walked through together and how it’s applied to our lives. It’s a fun day, I promise.

 

Day Twenty: Success Doesn’t Equal Contentment –I want to see you thrive and be successful. I want to make sure we have one thing very clear though, success will never bring you lasting contentment. It’s not bad to hit milestones, get promotions, or increase your pay. These are all fantastic, but don’t get caught up in these things bringing fulfillment. On day twenty we set the record straight. When your foundation is built on the Lord being your true source of fulfillment, you are on the right track. Far too many people find what the world sees as success, and they are still miserable. Oh, but that’s not going to be your story.

 

Day Twenty One: Game On –  We have walked through a ton of things together over the last 21 days, now it’s time to part ways. Day twenty-one was a very emotional day for me as our time together was coming to an end. The writing of this book was something I will never forget. I grew attached to you, the readers. I know that sounds crazy, but it’s true. Our paths will be filled with ups and downs, surprise turns, and many other things along the way. We have built a strong foundation. We will keep on keeping on. We will walk with boldness and courage. We are ready for the path ahead. GAME ON
