MAY 3 – 24 of 2015

21 Days of Prayer & Fasting During the 21 day period we are asking you to:



Spend time in prayer daily – Designate a ‘daily time’ every day – first thing in the morning, during your break time, mid morning, lunchtime or anytime that is best for your schedule.



Look for additional opportunities for prayer. Look for times to personally dedicate times of prayer; one particular day or one afternoon for example. Also, look for opportunities to pray with others; join with friends, get a prayer partner for the 21 days or come to meetings that are designated for prayer. The church will have times of prayer available that you can attend.



Practice fasting during these 21 days. There are different kinds of fasts listed below.

We are praying & fasting for 1.

2. 3.

4.

5.

Overcoming sin – Breaking the power and consequences of sin in our lives and families. Asking the Lord to create in us a new heart. Asking Him to change our character and everything that distract us from his purpose. Seeking God – We want to draw closer to Him, to hear His voice and see His wonders. Breaking free – we can break the power of habits and problems that affect us negatively. We will destroy all the altars and situations that lead us into compromise and sin in our life. Prayer & fasting is a powerful way to ask for God’s intervention and deliverance. (Galatians 5:1) Help with decisions – This time of prayer will bring clarity to our lives. Ask for God’s direction in the decisions that we need to make. We will pray for our plans and projects for summer 2015. We will seek the will of God. Building our personal faith – this will be a time of personal renewal that will build our faith as individuals and as a church. (Jude 1:20)

What does the Bible say about fasting? There are many examples of fasting in the scriptures. Here are three… 1. Jesus said that the Pharisees put on a ‘display’ but did not have the right heart. Jesus is not condemning public knowledge of fasting – since we read in many other places in scripture that a community of people fasted together, but He is condemning doing it to make someone think you are so “spiritual”. “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” Matthew 6:16-18



Jesus said, ‘when’ you fast not ‘if’ you fast



We will be rewarded when we fast with the right heart

2. The apostles prayed and fasted and received direction in ministry plans and selecting leaders. While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.” Acts 13:2 NIV 3. In Isaiah, God directed His people to fast to break the chains of oppression on the poor and others. He promises healing, righteousness, protection and answer to prayer. “Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke? Is it not to share your food with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter—when you see the naked, to clothe them, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood? Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the LORD will be your rear guard. Then you will call, and the LORD will answer; you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I.” Isaiah 58:6-9 NIV Different Kinds of fasts for long period of time

DAY 11 Take some time to worship the Lord today. “My hope is built on nothing less Than Jesus' blood and righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, But wholly lean on Jesus' name. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand. When He shall come with trumpet sound, oh, may I then in Him be found; Dressed in His righteousness alone, Faultless to stand before the throne.” – Hymn by Edward Mote available public domain

Scripture: Psalm 31:24; Jer. 17:7, 29:11; Rom. 5:5 Prayer Points – My hope shall not be deferred 1. 2.

Pray that discouragement will be vanquished in your life Pray for an attitude of holy anticipation to fill your mind

It is God’s nature to bless people with what is good in life. His desire is to grant us our heart desires. However, there can be some things that make our desires not to come to pass. The scripture says “Hope deferred makes the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life” (Proverb 13: 12). Not knowing the dynamics of faith causes hope to be deferred. To receive from God, we must:

   

Know what’s God’s word and will concerning my desire (I John 5:14-15, Psalm 37:4-5) Desire it (Mark 11:23) Pray it (Matthew 7:7-8) Believe it (Psalms 84:11; Mark 11:23)

DAY 12 Scripture: Proverb 13:12 Prayer Points – My hope shall not be deferred, continued When we have satisfied faith demands and nothing happens, then we face the second possibility that can be responsible for deferred hope – SATANIC OPERATIONS. The operations of the devil that brings about deferred hope involves attacking people with the spirit of delay (Daniel 10:12-13), spirit of resistance or hindering spirits (I Thess. 2:17-18)

War Against the spirit of Delay: 1. 2. 3.

Bind every spirit of delay blocking your prosperity from coming to you. Demand that your possession that has been kept away be return to you. Decree that your hope shall not be deferred any longer.

War against the spirit of resistance 1. 2. 3. 4.

Command the mountains of impossibilities standing before you to crumble. Bind and destroy associated enemies that are gathered against you. Declare that they shall not prosper, in Jesus name. Command every force of darkness contending with your miracles to scatter. Reject the spirit of failure at the edge of breakthrough.

Luke 10:18-20 “And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.”

Take time to REJOICE in the Lord your hope!

DAY 13 Scriptures: Psalm 35, Isaiah 54:14-17 Prayer Points – Warfare 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

I command spiritual and physical parasites stopping me from moving forward to be destroyed in Jesus name. Let my enemies be helpless and powerless while I enjoy my new beginning. Pray out Psalm 35. Father, remove every form of distress and perplexing problems that have trailed my life in Jesus name. I refuse to negotiate my destiny with the devil in the name of Jesus. Let all my past failure be converted to victory, in Jesus name. I separate myself from spirits of failure, poverty, accidental and death, in Jesus name.

To engage in spiritual warfare one must put on the armor of God: 1.

Gird your waist with truth – what lies must you stop believing in?

2.

Put on the breastplate of righteousness – what sins must you put away?

3.

5.

Shod your feet with the preparation of the Gospel of Peace – what anxieties must you shake off? Take the shield of Faith – what church doctrines must you learn more about? Take the helmet of salvation – How ought you to renew your mind?

6.

Take the sword of the Spirit – How can you increase your Bible intake?

7.

Praying always – How should you increase your prayer life?
