July 10-14
No matter what season, we need more of God in our lives. Magnifying him allows us to shift our perspective to focus on the things that really matter. We need to humble ourselves before him and seek him more than anything else. And in seeking him we know that he will graciously supply all that we need. Matthew 6:33

Daily Prayer Points
Here’s what we’ll be praying for in our 5 days of fasting. We’re excited for what God will do as we sacrificially take the time to position ourselves to have more of him.
Day 1: The Holiness of God
God’s character—his love, faithfulness, and mercy—originates from his holiness. We worship him today because he is set apart and worthy to be praised. Because of his holiness, we can be made clean from our sins and live for his glory.
Day 2: The Love of Jesus
“Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to. Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being. When he appeared in human form, he humbled himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on a cross.” – Philippians 2:6-8 NLT
Day 3: The Faithfulness of Our Father
Day 4: The Fear of God
“The friendship of the LORD is for those who fear him, and he makes known to them his covenant.” – Psalms 25:14 ESV:
“Dear friends, you always followed my instructions when I was with you. And now that I am away, it is even more important. Work hard to show the results of your salvation, obeying God with deep reverence and fear. For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.”
– Philippians 2:12-13 NLT

What is Fasting?
Fasting is when you give up food for a certain amount of time. When we remove or reduce our food intake, it weakens our bodies, forcing us to become closer to God and rely on his strength more than our own.
Fasting is not required for salvation, and there’s no pressure! But, it is something that Jesus did (he didn’t eat for 40 days at one time) and instructed his disciples to do. Check out Matthew 4:1-11 and Matthew 6:16-18 to see more about Jesus’ heart for fasting.

What Does a Fast Look Like?
The biblical model for fasting means giving up food—either completely or in part. You can also fast from distractions like social media and technology. Although these are not in the Bible, it does make sense to fast from things that distract you in your relationship with God. However, we’d encourage you to also fast from food—this is the best way to notice your physical weakness and begin to rely on God’s strength.
