Mount Paran North

READ: Acts 12:1-17

 

MEDITATE: God does miraculous things when His people (His church) are united in prayer. What is something that you can pray for that would benefit the “church” as a whole? Ask God for that. Also, ask God to show you ways He is moving through North and how you can be a part of it as well.

 

PRAY: From setting Peter free from prison to the beginning of the Great Awakening, throughout history you have responded to your people’s united prayers. Awaken my soul to what you are doing in and through Mount Paran North. Help me to pray and serve as part of the larger body of Christ.

READ: Matthew 16:13-19

 

MEDITATE: Jesus led his disciples to this place to ask them who they believed He was. Peter’s response was, “You are the Christ (Messiah), the Son of the living God.” Who is Jesus Christ to you? Reflect on that. Consider what the Bible tells us about him. Share those truths with others.

 

PRAY: Holy Spirit, continue to reveal to me more of yourself. Help me to apply biblical truths and revelations in my life. Grant me opportunities to share with others who Jesus is in my life so that you will be glorified.

MEDITATE: Biblically speaking, waiting is never a waste of time. Times of waiting become times of resting while God works on our behalf. Trust God even when you don’t see him working.

 

PRAY: During times of waiting, help me to turn my focus from my situation to You, Lord. You are my Rock and my Fortress. I rest in the assurance that you are working on my behalf.

MEDITATE: Commit to fasting and prayer – not to force God’s hand but to demonstrate your love and devotion to Him. God wants the best for his children. No matter what situation you may be facing, God can turn it around by imparting his favor on your life.

 

PRAY: Heavenly Father, no matter what the situation, I choose to serve you. May this time of prayer and fasting be a demonstration of my love and devotion to you.

READ: 1 Thessalonians 5:11; Proverbs 12:25

 

MEDITATE: There are people all around us who need encouragement but often we are oblivious. Before you head out for the day, ask God to make you more aware of those who need a word of encouragement and to provide the words they need to hear.

 

PRAY: Holy Spirit, lead me to someone who needs encouragement today. Give me the words to say that will bring deep life change to them. Help me to be encouraged in my own life by spending time in God’s word and listening to your voice.

MEDITATE: We all have misconceptions we need God to turn upside down. Fasting opens our spiritual eyes to see things from His perspective and help us better understand the heart of God.

 

PRAY: God, may my motivation for this time of prayer and fasting be to draw closer to you. Give me a fresh perspective. Open my eyes to see those around me as you see them.

READ: Leviticus 6:9, 13

 

MEDITATE: Just as God gave the priests instructions, remind yourself that your commitment is to God, not man. Ask God to show you things that may tempt you to break your fast and help you remove them from your life. Ask the Holy Spirit to keep the “fire burning” as you set aside time to fast and pray today.

 

PRAY: Lord, I acknowledge there may be things that are making it hard to keep my prayer and fasting commitment. I recommit to you (not to myself or to others) that I will continue. I know that I can’t keep the fire burning through my own efforts. So, Holy Spirit, please keep the fires burning in the time I spend with you today. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

READ: Isaiah 58:1-9

 

MEDITATE: The Israelites claimed to desire God’s ways but fell short in doing what He had already asked them to do. The right way to approach the Lord is to humbly serve others. And when we do, the Lord promises to hear our “cry for help” and be present for us.

 

PRAY: Heavenly Father, please show me ways I've been disobedient to you. Whether it is something I failed to do OR something wrong that I did, please show me that I might confess and turn from it. Help me to see and serve others with humility and love; for in those moments, I know I will find you near me.
