A Prayer Regarding Our Corporate Fasting and Prayer

Praise and Worship
Blessed Father, we thank You for our Church Family. Thank You for this consecrated season of prayer and fasting. Thank You for coming close to us as we come close to You.  Heavenly Father, Your majestic Name fills the earth!  Your glory is higher than the heavens.

Praying God’s Will
Gracious Father, we entered into our time of corporate fasting and prayer as a united Church Family.  During this sacred time, we will give our bodies to You because of all You have done for us. We will let them be living and holy sacrifices—the kind that You will find acceptable.  

Praying the Request
Holy Spirit, help us to follow You and the instructions given during the time of fasting.  As we pray during the fast, Father, please speak to us, give us wisdom, increase our discernment, and show us Your plans for our lives individually and corporately. 

Praying for Forgiveness
Righteous Father, forgive us as a Church Family for our acts of sinfulness.  Forgive those members who are able to fast but choose not to fast.  Holy Spirit, remind us of those we need to forgive and help us to be quick to forgive.  

Praying for Protection
Worthy Father, help us all not to yield to temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.

Praise and Worship
Holy Lord, You alone are God.  You are great!  You are robed with honor and majesty.  The Lord of Heaven’s Armies is Your Name!  In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
