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…
Father, capture our hearts again with the mystery and greatness of the work of Christ on the cross for our sins. Destroy all lesser loves and idols in our lives and restore ‘first love passion’ for Jesus in our hearts – Revive us I pray (Psalm 85:6)!
May we, as Your people, stand firm and let nothing move us. May we always give ourselves fully to Your work. Encourage us, remind us, that our labour for You is not in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58) and increase our compassion for the lost! May many rise up and join in the ministries of ECB and the harvest field.
Father, I ask that we as Your people might be increasingly known for our lavish love and forgiveness of one another. Keep us from pride that kills the work of Your Spirit and hardens our hearts to Your voice calling us to ‘run home’. Give to us I pray, the gift of brokenness and repentance and clothe us in humility (Luke 15:11-32; 1 Peter 5:5). Give wisdom in all things, to those who lead us, Father!
