Mindset 2024: Making Prayer a Priority / Personal Growth, Professional Growth, Spiritual Growth / By Coach Kenya Joy Last week, we examined the significance of putting God at the center of our lives. We explored why it’s crucial, the transformative impact it can have, and the simple daily practices that help keep Him at the forefront. Today, let’s dive deeper into one of those practices: Daily Devotion. Understanding Daily Devotion: Devotion is more than just a word; it signifies a profound dedication and an assignment to a purpose. In the context of our faith journey, daily devotion is our commitment to God and our assignment to fulfill His purpose in our lives. Starting and ending each day with prayer and God’s Word sets the tone for how our day begins and concludes. The Power of Prayer: Prayer serves as our direct line of communication with God. It is in prayer that we seek wisdom, knowledge, understanding, insight, and revelation. Our communication with God is pivotal for personal, spiritual, and professional growth and success. To achieve the growth and success we desire, making prayer a priority is essential.

Personally, I begin my day with a short prayer while preparing for the day and end it with dedicated time for prayer and Bible reading before bedtime. The key is finding a rhythm that works for you. As the Bible says, in Luke 18:1b (KJV), “Men ought to always pray and not faint.” If finding time to pray feels challenging, remember to never give up. “Never stop praying,” as the Bible encourages us in 1 Thessalonians 5:17 (NLT). Regardless of life’s challenges, maintain communication with God—always put Him first at the center of everything you do. The Connection Between Prayer and Mindset: You might be wondering, “What does this have to do with my mindset?” Great question! We pray to attain the mind of Christ. Striving to be like Him is a central theme in the Bible. Communing with God is the path to thinking like Him. When our thoughts align with His, transformation occurs, enabling us to navigate life successfully and achieve growth. In the journey of Mindset 2024, making prayer a priority becomes a cornerstone for success and balance. Remember, daily devotion is not just a routine; it’s a profound dedication to God and an assignment to fulfill His purpose. As we seek His guidance through prayer, we not only transform our mindset but also pave the way for growth and success in every aspect of our lives.
