ABOUT 31 DAYS OF PRAYER & FASTING
As we enter a new year, we invite you to join us for a month of prayer and fasting. Scripture teaches us to give God the first of all things, and as a first-fruit offering, we are committing ourselves to seek Him through prayer and fasting. In the busyness of everyday life, it’s easy for our prayer lives to slip into the background. Too often, prayer becomes a last resort rather than our first response. But prayer is not meant to be a mere lifeline in times of trouble—it is an invitation to draw near to God in both sorrow and joy, to depend on Him in all circumstances, and to share our triumphs with Him as a close friend. Obedience through prayer is one of the most powerful ways to honor and praise God. Above all, we are called to pray first.
If you sense that God has more for your life, the 31 Days of Prayer and Fasting is the perfect opportunity to step out in faith and believe for all that He has in store for you. As you prioritize seeking Him, you will witness His power move on your behalf in ways you’ve never experienced. You’ll begin to see the impact of prayer in your relationships, work, family, and every area of your life.
SO I TURNED TO THE LORD GOD AND PLEADED WITH HIM IN PRAYER AND FASTING. - DANIEL 9:3 (NLT)
PRAYER POINTS
During our time of prayer and fasting this January, we encourage you to join us in seeking God through these 31 daily prayer points. Each day, take a moment to pray over the designated point, reflecting on the accompanying Scripture. You can pray individually, with your family, or in small groups.
