Leadership & Prayer: The Superpower for ExecutivesSample

Day 1: Why Prayer Matters

Key Scripture: James 5:16 (NIV)

"The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective."

Ok, Leaders – let’s get this ball rolling. The corporate world is a roller coaster, right?

A mix of thrilling highs and heart-stopping lows.

But wait a minute, what about prayer? Where does that fit in?

Picture this – a high-flying executive named Bob, with tailored suits and the corner office.

Bob scaled that corporate ladder like a pro and became the CEO of a Fortune 500 company.

He was married to his job.

The type of guy who would live in the office if that was a thing.

Then the tide turned. His company was on the brink of bankruptcy.

Panic mode activated.

Bob, who never bothered with faith, found himself glancing skyward.

In sheer desperation, he began praying. And guess what?

Miraculously, things started to change. The company made an astonishing recovery, and Bob was a changed man.

But hang on a minute – was it just about saving the company?

No way, José. It was more than that.

Prayer changed Bob inside out.

Let's get this straight: prayer isn’t just about solving problems; it's about connecting with the Master.

It’s about aligning your ambitions, thoughts, and actions with Jesus.

When you pray, you aren’t sending Santa your wish list.

You are opening your hearts to divine guidance and wisdom.

Are you facing tough decisions?

Financial issues?

Team conflicts?

Before you dive into that sea of spreadsheets and emails, take a moment.

Pray.

Bob learned that lesson, and it didn’t just save his company; it saved him.

Be like Bob, my friends.

Make prayer your secret weapon in the corporate world.

The challenge for the day: What is the Holy Spirit showing you right now about your prayer life? Be honest. This moment can shift EVERYTHING.

I’m rooting for you.

God bless.
