Prayer and Fasting

Prayer and Fasting, January 7, 2022

The Heartland Conference Executive Council invites you to join with us the first Friday in 2022, January 7, as we fast and pray for God’s renewed hand upon our conference and nation!

Feel free to fast a meal or the entire day.

Suggested topics of prayer include:

  • Rebuilding of churches, lives, and community — many churches have seen their attendance dramatically decrease, lives have been decimated, and many communities are declining. Let’s be the generation that rebuilds in prayer and action!
  • The church to find renewed mission — may God grant us a renewed vision and strategy for evangelism and discipleship.
  • COVID-19 — the world, our nation, and even the church have spent enough time arguing about how to navigate this epidemic. Let’s cry out in humble repentance and ask God to lift this plague off of our nation and world!

Mark 11:17 (NKJV)

house of prayerNo doubt your heart longs to pray the way the early believers prayed, both individually and in groups large and small. They were men and women just like us. We can learn what they knew. As we pray with the same passion to the same God, we assuredly will see the Holy Spirit moving on the same level.

Is Your Church a House of Prayer?

As we read the Newhouse of prayer for all nations Testament, we become aware rather quickly that the early church devoted herself to prayer. Some of this prayer was done alone as individuals. Some of it was done in groups small and large.

Let me make two observations on the church in America today:
