Fasting & Praying Guideනියැදිය

May the glory of God, which is seen in the human face crowned with thorns, shine into our hearts, and may the hands scarred with nails for us shape our lives to reflect His until we see Him face to face. Hallelujah. Amen.
Reflection:
Today, I’m praying for a deeper understanding of the freedom I’ve been given in Christ Jesus.
Colossians 4:2 says:
“Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart.”
Too often, my prayers focus on my own needs—what I want or lack—rather than being alert to the finished work of the cross. I want to approach prayer from a posture of thanksgiving, not need; from power, not weakness; from victory, not defeat.
True faith-filled prayer flows out of an awareness of what Jesus has already accomplished. It comes from closeness to Him and an alertness to His victory—not from my own limited strength, ability, or will.
What would it look like for you to shift your prayers today to a posture of gratitude for the completed work of Christ?

This fasting guide is meant to accompany a 21-day fast. For each week, we will look first at the example of Jesus’ fasting and temptation in the wilderness. Then we will attempt to draw out important biblical teachings to edify our souls as we fast from food and feast on God. The goal of this is to experience for ourselves what it means to live not by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God (Matt. 4:4).
