1. Intentionally Invite the Holy Spirit Into Your Work
The first and most critical step is to pause and consciously invite the Holy Spirit to guide your day. This isn’t just a one-time action but a daily practice of positioning yourself to hear from God. Take a few moments each morning to still your heart, listen, and align your plans with His direction.
If you’re looking for guidance on how to hear God in your workplace, grab a copy of Andy and Janine Mason’s new book, Listen Up! Hearing God at Work, available on Amazon. It’s packed with practical tools and real-life stories to help you discern God’s voice in your work.
Action Step: Begin each workday by taking 5–10 minutes to invite the Holy Spirit to speak, and write down what you sense in your heart.
2. Recognize Momentum - what are the results?
Start each week by reflecting on the wins and breakthroughs you’ve experienced the previous seven days. These moments are tangible evidence of God working in your business. Whether it’s a closed deal, a timely connection, or unexpected provision, recognizing momentum builds gratitude and strengthens your faith for the future.
Action Step: At the end of each week, write down three key wins or breakthroughs, and celebrate God’s faithfulness in your work.
3. Set Prayer Targets - what is the focus this week?
Be intentional about the areas where you’re seeking God’s intervention. What specific challenges or opportunities do you need breakthrough in this week? Clearly define these targets, and invite trusted team members or prayer partners to stand with you in prayer. Focused prayer invites the Holy Spirit to work in targeted ways.
Action Step: Write down three prayer targets each week, such as a new hire’s onboarding process, a key business decision, or personal growth areas.
4. Stay Focused on the Big Picture
In the busyness of daily tasks, it’s easy to lose sight of long-term goals. Ask the Holy Spirit to keep you aligned with your bigger vision and mission. Revisit your key priorities regularly and allow God to refine and guide your overarching plans.
Action Step: Identify one or two big-picture priorities for your year and review them weekly, asking God for clarity and direction.
Why This Matters
Engaging the Holy Spirit in your business isn’t just about solving problems; it’s about building a life and legacy that reflect His kingdom. When you intentionally listen, celebrate momentum, pray with focus, and align with the big picture, you’ll find yourself leading with peace, purpose, and supernatural results.
Ready to Take the Next Step?
Start today by writing out your weekly prayer targets under these four headings: Invite the Holy Spirit, Recognize Momentum, Set Prayer Targets, and Stay Focused on the Big Picture. As you make this a habit, you’ll discover new levels of peace, direction, and breakthrough.
