Bible Reading Plan – God is My CEO
God is My CEO
Does God have a job at your company? While God can’t be listed as a legal board member, it’s important for entrepreneurs to remember that God does have power over businesses. In many respects, we try to take God’s job away from Him because we’re worried or need to be in control.
In this God is my CEO Bible reading plan, we will explore what it means to let God call the shots. We will hear from other entrepreneurs, leaders, and pastors along this journey. Get started today!
Day 1: What Can’t God Do?
Today, we are reminded that God is the one who allows us to do things we can never do on our own. Kelly Shackelford, CEO, shares what she experienced during the COVID pandemic. Though teams were isolated at home, God still did more than anyone could ask for imagine. From providing for churches through the CARES act to securing important pieces of legislation, God took charge and showed that He was the one with full power.
Bible reading from Deuteronomy.
Day 2: God is Power
Power is… powerful. We all want to be able to control others and our circumstances. Power gives us security and influence. But in the Bible, we see that God is the true weilder of power and that trying to usurp that role can lead to disastrous results.
In this devotional, we see how Jesus used power in order to fulfil His great purpose on this earth. Even if you company is in the Fortune 100, you need to remember that God uses power for His good.
Bible reading from Philippians.
Day 3: God Gives Us Value
Casey Crawford is the CEO of Movement Mortgage, which employs more than 4,500 and has over 650 locations in all 50 states. For much of his live, he’s found his value in performance. And what entrepreneur doesn’t? Most business roles will throw you under a microscope and demand excellent performance or risk being thrown aside just for someone else to take your place. But Casey reminds us that God gives us value.
Bible reading from Isaiah
Day 4: God Charts the Course
With God as our CEO, we don’t have to be ultimately responsible for the direction of our lives. Yes, we do participate in what God is doing on earth, but we no longer have to bear the weight of all anxiety and worry. Read how one entrepreneur turns to God during bouts of depression and confusion.
Bible reading from Nahum.
Day 5: Jesus Came to Live and to Give Life
Ephesians 5:1 is just one example of where we’re called to be imitators. There are literally dozens of verses like this. It's a reminder that going back into the scripture and better understanding the message of Christ outside of the context of death, burial, and resurrection is truly life-giving.
