WHY ARE WE PRAYING AND FASTING?
In Acts 13:2-3, we read, “While they (Church Elders) 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.” So after they had fasted and prayed, they placed their hands on them and sent them off.”
The early Church discerned its next steps when it sought God’s will through prayer and fasting. In Church history, spiritual awakenings and Christ-centered revivals have come to regions where God’s people have gathered together for prayer and fasting.
It is our desire that this would be true of The Bridge Community Church in this season in its story. We long to see the expansion of God’s kingdom through the unique vision He has entrusted to us as a Church. This 7-day prayer and fasting guide is designed to help us pursue that goal.
