Prayer and Fasting for Wednesday 19 January 2022
WEDNESDAY Prayer and Fasting Focus
Wednesdays have been set aside as a day of prayer and fasting for the ministries of ECB and to ask God for a greater outpouring of the Holy Spirit among us. You are invited to join in praying and fasting during one or all meals, or from something that is important to you. As you pray, remember ECB brothers and sisters that the Holy Spirit brings to mind, by name…
Lord Jesus, as the disciples asked You, so do I this day, ‘Lord teach me to pray’. Teach me to pray and not give up, to press into You and pray for kingdom things! Teach the ECB community of faith these things – teach us how to pray! This day, Holy Spirit, strengthen my brothers and sisters to pray and fast, and use us to remove the obstacles out of the way of Your people–everything that keeps us from following hard after You (Luke 11:1; Isaiah 57:14)!
Anoint and strengthen our pastors, that they might serve with joy and great encouragement by the Holy Spirit.
Grow and strengthen our LIFE Groups, Father – unify us by the Spirit, as we gather this week in homes across the city. Grow each group to the point of multiplying that the blessing of community might spread (Pray for your LIFE Group and LIFE Group leader by name…).
Father, I ask that You give to us as Your people, the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that we might know You better! Open the eyes of our hearts Father (Ephesians 1:17-18)! (Pray this for those you know, by name)
