I was ashamed to ask King Artaxerxes for soldiers and horsemen. They could have kept us safe from enemies on the road. But we had told the king that our God would keep us safe. We had said, “Our God is gracious and helps everyone who looks to him. But he becomes very angry with anyone who deserts him.” So we didn’t eat anything. We prayed to our God about all these matters. And he answered our prayers.

5 Days
Prayer is a powerful way to interact with both God and others. Praying with others can be both encouraging and deeply meaningful. This plan will help you think of new ways to do that. Each of the five days contains a short audio message (1-2 minutes). The guests share about praying face-to-face, deepening relationships through prayer, seeing God's power, and leading group prayer.
Join us as we dive into a short fast together and discuss how fasting brings us closer to God, helps us find His direction, and makes us more aware of His provision and restoration as we learn to rely on Him.
We all face difficult circumstances, culture clashes, and personal struggles. Life can be like fighting in a battle. This is a devotional series that will encourage and strengthen you for the spiritual battles you will face in life.
The power of prayer and fasting cannot be underestimated in the life of a Believer. This powerful combination can move mountains of impossibility, heal your body, your relationships, your finances, and can rectify what seems hopeless. When we fast and pray, God moves heaven and earth on our behalf. The thing that concerns us becomes our testimony and wins others to Christ. It becomes a thing of great beauty.
