Preparing the Way
This evening, Sun, Feb 22, our church family from all campuses will gather at our Cypress Campus for Advanced Commitment Night. If the Lord has revealed to you how your household will participate in Kingdom Come, you are welcome to bring your commitment card at this time.
Tomorrow, we begin our annual week of Prayer and Fasting. If you are still praying about your level of commitment, use this week to seek His guidance. If you’ve already received clarity about your involvement in Kingdom Come, we challenge you to commit fully to the prompts and encouragement of the following devotionals to trust God and seek His will in all aspects of your life.
Matthew 6:9
“Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.”
Posture Your Heart
As we begin this week, we start not with action, but with a reorientation of the heart. When Jesus taught us to pray in Matthew 6:9, “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,” He teaches us to posture our hearts to see Him seated on His throne, humbly bringing our needs and aligning our desires with His.
Each day of Prayer + Fasting Week invites us to quiet distractions, draw near to our Father, and intentionally posture our hearts through prayer and fasting. Through Scripture, guided prayer, and simple daily practices, we make space for God to realign our priorities and lead us more fully into His Kingdom purposes.
To start your week well prepared for what God may reveal to you, we ask that you examine your heart and ask God to reveal what He wants you to fast from this week. Choose something simple like a food item, a habit, or something that you feel consumes too much of your time. Whatever He reveals to you, lay it down at His feet and trust that He will sustain you.
Action Step
Choose your week-long fast item (social media, screens, food item, etc.).
Prayer Practice
Choose a passage of Scripture and pray through it using the Scripture Prayer model.
