Strengthening Our Unity in Fasting and Prayer
Today, we deepen our commitment to unity as we engage in corporate fasting and prayer. Fasting not only aligns our hearts with God’s will but also strengthens our unity as we collectively seek His face for revival. As we join our prayer partners in fasting and prayer, let us remember the words of Joel 2:12, urging us to return to the Lord with fasting, weeping, and mourning. Today, we unite in a spirit of humility and anticipation, trusting in God’s promise to hear our prayers and bring about revival.
