28-Week Prayer Guide
Prayer and fasting
There is great joy in walking intimately with the Lord, where we get to experience and encounter Him in new ways. Spiritual disciplines are a beautiful way to connect with God and lean into our relationship with Him. This week, we’re going to consider how prayer and fasting can strengthen our faith, hope and trust in the Lord.
Week 23
Day 6
August 9
“I am at rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I will never be shaken.”
— Psalm 62:1-2
REMINDER: It is so easy to distract ourselves from our troubles- sometimes it’s easier to not acknowledge the broken areas in our lives. But if we learn to rest in God, we don’t have to escape from our circumstances. It is when we are in step with the Lord that we can experience a deeper healing and assurance that He holds all things together.
TODAY’S PRAYER:
– Ask the Lord to help you fast from escapism today- that you would lean into the life circumstances where He has you.
– Ask the Lord to help you fast from the need for control- He sees every facet of your circumstances and He will sustain you, because He is a good Father.
– Thank the Lord that you can trust Him, always.
