21 days - Fasting & Prayerનમૂનો

Interceding as an advocate

Read Daniel 9:3-19.

Fasting as intercession. This is exactly what Daniel did for his people. 

Do you have a cause or a person you want to intercede for? Perhaps you have it on your heart to pray for a particular group of people, your city or your country.

Here is Steffi's testimony:

A few years ago, I fasted for 40 days for my friend who does not know Jesus. Early in her pregnancy, she found out that she had an extremely aggressive breast cancer. Doctors advised her to abort her child so that she herself would have a better chance of survival. She decided to have the child. In this situation, I felt powerless as a friend, the only thing I could do was fast and pray. In the course of the fast, God gave me insight into things in her family for which I could ask forgiveness (If you want to know more about this topic, visit the Get Free workshop of ICF Munich). In the meantime, my friend is considered cancer-free and she gave birth to a healthy boy (despite chemotherapy). When I think of this story, I am always overwhelmed by our great God.

Prayer, Get Free & Next Step: 

Perhaps at the start of the fast you've been thinking about who or what you'd like to pray for especially during this time. Take time to pray for just that today. The Bible says that we are kings and priests. Imagine yourself as a royal priest standing in the throne room of God and interceding for these issues.
