#184 Why Obedience is the Ultimate Business Strategy

Welcome to the Unapologetically Unstoppable live show! In this episode, I had an incredible Kingdom conversation with Brittany Durfee about where God is moving in the marketplace and how we, as Kingdom entrepreneurs, are called to step into alignment.

We talked about how the “new thing” God is calling us to isn’t actually new—it’s just the thing we didn’t obey in the last season (ouch, right?!). 🙃 Brittany shared how stepping into obedience can feel like a challenge, but it's also where we find true Kingdom success—not just financial gain, but peace, joy, and transformation.

We got real about the struggles of entrepreneurship, how the world defines success versus how the Kingdom does, and why so many business owners experience a wilderness season before stepping into their true calling. And sis, let’s talk about Sabbath rest! Brittany shared her journey of implementing a true Sabbath—sundown to sundown—where she reconnects with God, enjoys simple joys, and allows God to refresh her spirit. We talked about the importance of rest without guilt in a culture that glorifies hustle. 

One of the biggest revelations? Kingdom business isn’t about striving; it’s about surrender. Noah didn’t go out and chase the animals—he built the ark and the animals came to him. 🙌 The same applies to our businesses. When we obey, God sends the provision.

We also tackled how the enemy attacks identity and how if he can make us doubt who we are, we’ll strive for things that were never meant for us. But girl, we are chosen, and it’s time to step boldly into what God has called us to build! 

🔥 Key takeaways:

• The "new thing" is actually the old thing you ignored.
• Obedience over everything, even when it doesn’t make sense.
• Rest isn’t lazy—it’s Kingdom strategy.
• Success in the Kingdom isn’t just about money; it’s about transformation.
• The enemy’s biggest trick? Attacking your identity.
• When God calls you, the provision will come—you just have to be in position.

I LOVED this conversation with Brittany, and I know you will too! Tag a sister in business who needs to hear this. Let’s walk boldly in obedience together!

7 “The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before you. They shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways. 8 The Lord will command the blessing on you in your barns and in all that you undertake. And he will bless you in the land that the Lord your God is giving you. 9 The Lord will establish you as a people holy to himself, as he has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in his ways. 10 And all the peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they shall be afraid of you. 11 And the Lord will make you abound in prosperity, in the fruit of your womb and in the fruit of your livestock and in the fruit of your ground, within the land that the Lord swore to your fathers to give you. 12 The Lord will open to you his good treasury, the heavens, to give the rain to your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hands. And you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. 13 And the Lord will make you the head and not the tail, and you shall only go up and not down, if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, being careful to do them, 14 and if you do not turn aside from any of the words that I command you today, to the right hand or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.
