Every January, we set aside 21 days to intentionally seek God in prayer and fasting, believing for Him to move in powerful ways. We would love for you to take part in 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting.
Day 1
BOLD FAITH
Ask God for steadfast, passionate faith.
-
By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going. By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country. Love, obey and enjoy God in the fullness of who He is.
(Hebrews 11: 8-10 NIV)
Day 2
BOLD HEALING
Praise God for the way he has healed you in the past and continues to heal areas of brokenness that need His touch.
-
“He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.” (1 Peter 2:24 NIV)
Day 3
BOLD OBEDIENCE
Pray for unconditional obedience, to obey immediately, to obey if it doesn’t make sense, to obey if it is painful, even if you don’t see personal gain.
-
Some time later God tested Abraham. He said to him, “Abraham!” “Here I am,” Then God said, “Take your son, your only son, whom you love, Isaac, and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on a mountain I will show you.” When they reached the place God had told him about, Abraham built an altar and arranged the wood on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. Then he reached out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. The angel of the Lord called out from heaven, “Abraham! Abraham! Do not lay a hand on the boy, do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God because you have not withheld your son from me, your only son.” Abraham looked up and there in the thicket he saw a ram caught by its horns. He took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son. So, Abraham called the place, The Lord Will Provide. And through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed because you have obeyed me. (Genesis 22: 1-2, 9-14; 18 NIV)
Day 4
BOLD WORSHIP/PRAISE
Give God the praise, adoration, thanksgiving and worship He deserves.
-
Praise the Lord. Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise in the assembly of his faithful people. Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the people of Zion be glad in their King. Let them praise his name with dancing and make music to him with timbrel and harp. For the Lord takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with victory. Let his faithful people rejoice in this honor and sing for joy on their beds. (Psalms 149:1-5 NIV)

-
I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. (Ephesians 3:16-19 NLT)
Day 7
BOLD PROMISE
Place your faithful trust in God. Believe and receive what His word says.
-
His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.

So we are convinced that every detail of our lives is continually woven together to fit into God’s perfect plan of bringing good into our lives, for we are his lovers who have been called to fulfill his designed purpose.

This means the Son is the oldest among a vast family of brothers and sisters who will become just like him. (Romans 8:28-29 TPT)

BOLD CHURCH
Pray for God to ignite a fire in the hearts of his people; pray for your pastors and church leaders.
-
Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body, and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another - and all the more as you see the Day approaching. (Hebrews 10:19-25 NIV)
Day 13
BOLD CITY
Pray for revival in our cities.
-
Your lives light up the world. Let others see your light from a distance, for how can you hide a city that stands on a hilltop? And who would light a lamp and then hide it in an obscure place? Instead, it’s placed where everyone in the house can benefit from its light. So don’t hide your light! Let it shine brightly before others, so that the commendable things you do will shine as light upon them, and then they will give their praise to your Father in heaven. (Matthew 5:14-16 TPT)
