Every day, entrepreneurs and faith-driven leaders face impossible situations. Such leaders have to deal with a variety of situations that seem impossible to solve from the lens of human thinking. This impossibility principle challenges leaders to think broader, act bolder, and believe bigger than if they only consider what they are capable of accomplishing by themselves.
Of all the tasks that steward CEOs engage in daily, one of the most essential is prayer. Talk with God, the Owner of the business. He is the one who can give belief, encouragement, wisdom, and direction during all seasons of the company.
Jesus made it a habit of going away by himself to pray. Mark 1:35 records one example of this practice: “Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.” Jesus thought it important enough to start His day in solitude to pray and connect with His heavenly Father. That is why it should be important to every CEO.
