Our Foundation for Fasting and Prayer
“Jabez called on Israel’s God:
“If only you would greatly bless me and increase my territory.
May your power go with me to keep me from trouble,
so as not to cause me pain.”
And God granted his request.”
(1 Chronicles 4:10, CEB)
Week One:
Surrendering Everything For God-sized Expansion!
(Each day, as you follow this schedule, we are recommending you ADD your own SPECIFIC prayer requests in each of the seven areas we are praying and fasting for.)
January 6th – Our Financial Lives: We’re Resourcing God’s Will for Our Lives …
Read: Mark 12:41-44
Surrender your finances to King Jesus, putting His will first in your earning and spending. (Since God gives us all we have, using those resources selflessly is His plan and purpose.)
Ask God these three questions and listen throughout your day for His responses:
• Am I thanking God for what He has and is giving me?
• Am I giving generously to God’s work in my church and around the world?
• As I reserving some funds and possessions for the poor and needy around me?
Pray for the expansion of your financial resources with these words, “King Jesus, thank you for all the money and possessions You have given me so far. Solomon told us that, “Money answers everything!” (Ecclesiastes 10:19, CEB) So, I am asking You to expand my financial resources SO THAT I can be generous to my church, generous to Your Global Mission, and generous to the poor and needy about me in greater and greater ways in 2020: Our Year of Expansion!”
Be Specific. Now, pour out your heart to God for the things you are praying and fasting for. ESPECIALLY ask God to answer the three questions above!
A Year of Expansion!
