Week of Fasting and Prayer (JAN 17 evening to JAN 24, 2021)

on

‘Prayers outlive the lives of those who uttered them; outlive a generation, outlive an age – and outlive a world’.
(E.M.Bounds)

Our elders are calling the church family to a week of fasting and prayer.  Let us humble ourselves before the Lord and call upon Him for His enabling in the year ahead in our lives, families, nation and the world.  This is not new to many of us but may be new to some.  So we have some resources for you.  In the following link you will find three resources to help you prepare:

  • The Prayer Guide which we will use each day in our homes. Each day we focus on a prayer for revival and spiritual awakening, for an aspect of the pandemic that has disrupted so much of life, for church ministries and of course for our missionaries
  • You will also find a  brief, yet very helpful and practical article by Frans Meintjes on  ‘Fasting and Prayer’  with some links to  messages on the topic by John Piper and other preachers.
  • Included too is an MP4  video, twelve minutes in length on the topic. 

Every evening from Sunday 17 Jan at 7.00 pm to Saturday 23rd  we will screen a 5 to 8 minute devotional  on our Youtube channel to connect us all, and then inspire us to use the Prayer Guide topics for the day.    After the devotion on Sunday Jan 17, we will  also screen the teaching on Fasting and Prayer mentioned above.  We look forward to a Christ-exalting and Spirit -fuelled time as we pray for God’s name to be hallowed, His kingdom to come and His will to be done here on earth as it is in heaven.
