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…


Ask the Holy Spirit to direct your prayers and to bring specific ECB brothers and sisters to your mind as you pray.

Father, Your Word says that You are looking throughout the earth for those whose hearts are fully committed to You, to strengthen them. Oh how I long for us to be fully committed people! Purge all lesser loves from our lives I pray, and may revival visitation of the Holy Spirit fall on us that first-love passion for Jesus might be renewed in each of us. Revive us Father (2 Chronicles 16:9; Psalm 85:6)!

May the Holy Spirit be poured out on us as we gather as Your people this Sunday, anointing You Word and empowering those who lead us in worship.

May we enter Your gates with thanksgiving and Your courts with praise! You are worthy (Psalm 100)!

Pour out Your Holy Spirit on our pastors, elders and deacons that they might minister among us with great power and wisdom.

Father, may we not only love with the words that we say, but with actions and in truth (1 John 3:8-9).
