Uniting in Corporate Fasting
Today, we add a powerful dimension to our prayer efforts by incorporating corporate fasting into our routine. As we join our prayer partners in fasting once a week, we align our hearts and minds with God’s purposes, seeking His will and intervention in a deeper way. Let us heed the counsel, recognizing that united prayers, coupled with fasting, unleash a power greater than that of private prayer alone.
Suggested Reading:
1. Devotional Bible Verse: Joel 2:12 – “Yet even now,” declares the Lord, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.”
Reflection: Reflect on the spiritual discipline of fasting and its significance in seeking God’s presence and guidance for revival.
Ellen G. White Quote: “God’s people must take warning and discern the signs of the times. The signs of Christ’s coming are too plain to be doubted; and in view of these things everyone who professes the truth should be a living preacher, showing forth the power of the grace that Christ died to give men” (Manuscript 126, 1901).
