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, I ask in Jesus’ name, that You give us fresh understanding of the authority that we have because of the blood of the Lord Jesus and His finished work on the cross. May we as Your people walk as ‘more than conquerors’ (Romans 8:37; Ephesians 6:10; Romans 12:21; 1 John 5:4; 2 Corinthians 6:7).
It is written that we should not “love the world or the things of the world’. Help us Lord! Increase our love for You, that everything else might diminish and Christ Jesus, increase (1 John 2:15)!
Help us to have mercy on those in our community of faith who are doubting and being tempted to turn back. May we increasingly encourage each other to press on in our pilgrimage with You. Strengthen them to stand firm (Jude 22)!
Father, may ECB increasingly become a place where it is safe to confess our sin to another. Teach us to walk alongside one another and encourage each other in our pilgrimage towards greater Christ-likeness (James 5:16).
