Prayer and Fasting
As we move forward into the next chapter of the Columbus Church of Christ, we want to spend some time in prayer and fasting, asking God to move in our hearts and in the church. Specifically, we are asking to focus on three areas:
Exposure - That God would expose our hearts individually, as small groups and corporately.
Direction - That the spirit would guide our steps as we move forward.
Humility - That we would be led by and in humility.
We will be fasting 4 times in the coming months:
July 12th
August 7-9th
September 7-13th
October 12-25th
Each fast will end on a Wednesday and we encourage each family group to end their fast together, perhaps with a time of reflection on what God has shown them through the spirit during that fasting time.
We understand that each person’s situation is different and not everyone can fast the same way. We aren’t asking for a specific kind of fast, only that each of us commit to fasting. Your fast could be from certain foods or media or some other fast that suits your situation.
