Purpose in 66: Day 24 of 90

Day 24 - This is my Story, This is My Song

Job 1:1-22

"Sometimes, your purpose is about more than your skill—it’s about your story. You’d be surprised how many people are remembered not for what they did, but for what they lived to tell."

Group Discussion Question

Think of someone who has impacted your life. Were their achievements inspiring you, or were their journey and struggles? Why do stories connect us more deeply than accomplishments?

Personal Reflection Question:

What is one defining moment in my life that has shaped my perspective, faith, or purpose?

Purpose in 66: Day 23 of 90

Day 23 - Purpose NOW, Party LATER

Esther 1:1-12

The world I experience today is a byproduct of the decisions I made yesterday.

Every decision I make, whether actively or passively, will impact my life in a major or minor way.

Understanding the Weight of Your Decisions

• Have you ever made a small decision that had a much bigger impact than you expected? What did you learn from it?

Application & Accountability

• If someone younger than you asked for advice about decision-making, what wisdom would you share?

Day 22 - This Requires Work

Nehemiah 4:1-15

You are a game-changer. And most game-changers will never know their impact until they have moved on. I know you want to be celebrated right now, but that won't come until you complete what God brought you here to do. So do it, and expect opposition.

Expect people to misunderstand you.

Add it to your budget so that you are not in the red after you have rebuilt.

THIS REQUIRES WORK!

 

Expecting Opposition & Misunderstanding

• What are some healthy ways to deal with discouragement when facing resistance?

Embracing the Work That Purpose Requires

• Have you ever given up too soon on something powerful? What can you learn from that?

Purpose in 66: Day 21 of 90

Day 21 of 90- Stay Up

Nehemiah 6:1-15

I believe Nehemiah's verb was

"rebuild."

He was purposed by God to rebuild the wall, and in so doing, he was able to protect what Solomon built, empower the people who complied, deploy and delegate leaders, and change the world for God's glory.

 

Identifying Your Personal "Rebuild" Assignment

• The premise states, “Nehemiah’s verb was ‘rebuild.’” If your life had one defining verb right now, what would it be? (e.g., build, restore, lead, serve, teach, heal, etc.)

Application & Accountability

• What is one thing you need to start rebuilding or protecting in your personal or professional life?

Purpose in 66: Day 20 of 90

Day 20 of 90 - Be Devoted to the Work

Nobody Sees

Ezra 7:1-10

 

The Bible tells us in the book of Ezra that he was committed:

First, he rebuilt the altar.

Second, he rebuilt the temple. After these things happened, the people returned.

Today, before you work on more of your business plan, rebuild your altar.

What does your devotional life look like? Could it be that God will not release the provision you need to make this thing work until you are able to increase your ALTAR time?

 

Evaluating Your Devotional Life

• The premise asks, “What does your devotional life look like?” How would you honestly answer that question right now?

The Unseen Work of Purpose

• Who in your life models faithfulness to the unseen work of devotion? What have you learned from them?

Purpose in 66: Day 19 of 90

Day 19 - Love it or List It

2 Chronicles 29:1-15

 

Most of us are living with a shortage of some sort. We have acclimated to the defect, and instead of buying a new charger, we just "hold the wires down for more than 10 seconds"

But today is the day to be free! If you choose to live a broken life that can be fixed, you are choosing to settle for less than the best.

 

Identifying the “Shortages” in Our Lives

 

• Have you ever become so accustomed to dysfunction that you didn’t even recognize it as a problem anymore? What was the turning point?

Application & Accountability

• If you could give advice to someone struggling with letting go of something broken, what would you tell them?

Purpose in 66: Day 18 of 90

Day 18 - You Are Doing Too Much!

1 Chronicles 13:1-14

You think you need to lose this, or add this, or extend that, but you are powerful AS-IS. 

When the glory of God is on you, God's presence is the only SPECIAL SAUCE you need!

Don't sacrifice your core identity and convictions at the altar of relevancy. I never saw that Jesus had to be relevant in order to win the lost.

 

Understanding Your Value "AS-IS"

• Have you ever felt like you had to change yourself to fit in, be accepted, or be successful? What was the result?

Application & Accountability

• If you could give one piece of advice to someone struggling with feeling like they aren’t enough, what would you say?

 

Purpose in 66: Day 17 of 90

Day 17 of 90 - Calling is Not Your Healing

2 Kings 4:1-7

 

Your calling can open doors, but only your character can keep you in the room. Heal, grow, and do the deep work—because the gift will take you places, but only wholeness will let you thrive there."

 

Group Discussion Question

What are some real-life examples of people whose gifts took them far, but their lack of character or healing caused them to fall? What lessons can we learn from them?

 

Personal Reflection Questions

If God were to ask me, “What do you have in your house?”—what gifts, resources, or strengths am I overlooking that He can use? 

Purpose in 66: Day 16 of 90

Day 16 of 90 - Excellence on Every Level

1 Kings 10:1-10; 23-25

 

Whether you own a company, lead a non-profit, manage a family, post on social media; excellence should follow you all the days of your life. The moment you leave a room, you have left an impression.

What are they saying about you when you exit?

Who have you touched in such an unforgettable way, that they are now modeling their behavior, their business, their team, and their lives after you?

 

The Power of Excellence in Everyday Life

 

• Can you think of a time when someone’s commitment to excellence inspired or challenged you?

 

 

Application & Accountability

••What is one area in your life where you feel challenged to elevate your level of excellence?

Purpose in 66: Day 15 of 90

Day 15 of 90 - Your Last Words

2 Samuel 23:1-7

 

David's last words begin and end with God. David wants you to know, that above all of my accomplishments and achievements, my faults and my failures, The Spirit of the Lord spoke through me.

In other words, God was here. This, my friends, is destiny. I haven't talked much about destiny just yet, but I define destiny as the punctuation mark at the end of your life's sentence.

Destiny.

 

Defining Destiny & Legacy

• If you had to describe your life’s sentence so far, what punctuation mark would it have today (a period, comma, question mark, or exclamation point)? Why?

Living a Life That Speaks Beyond Today

••If someone were to sum up your life in one sentence right now, what do you think it would say? What do you want it to say?
