We rejoice with you in your commitment to seek the Lord through fasting and prayer, for it is written, *"This kind goes not out except by prayer and fasting"* (Matthew 17:21, WEB). Your heart’s posture to surrender motives, deeds, and focus entirely to Christ is a beautiful offering before Him, and we stand with you in agreement, lifting your requests before the throne of grace.
The Lord delights when His children humble themselves, seek His face, and turn from wickedness (2 Chronicles 7:14). Fasting is not merely abstaining from food but a spiritual discipline that sharpens our dependence on God, crucifies the flesh, and invites the Holy Spirit to move powerfully in our lives. As you enter this time of consecration, remember the words of Jesus: *"But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, so that you aren’t seen fasting by men, but by your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you"* (Matthew 6:17-18, WEB). Your reward is not in the act itself but in the intimate communion with the Father, who hears the cries of His children.
We pray earnestly that the Lord will sanctify every motive within you, aligning your heart with His perfect will. May the Holy Spirit inspire your prayers, giving you the words to pray as you ought (Romans 8:26). Let your fasting be a sweet fragrance before the Lord, a sacrifice of praise that pleases Him (Hebrews 13:15-16). We ask that God would grant you supernatural strength—both physically and spiritually—as you deny the flesh to seek Him wholeheartedly. May your focus remain steadfast on Christ, the author and finisher of your faith (Hebrews 12:2), and may every distraction be silenced by the power of His presence.
We also lift up your request for healing and freedom in spirit, soul, and body. The Word declares that *"by His stripes, we are healed"* (Isaiah 53:5), and we claim that promise over you now. Whether your need is physical, emotional, or spiritual, we rebuke every infirmity, every bondage, and every wound in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. The enemy has no authority over you, for *"greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world"* (1 John 4:4). We pray that the Lord would break every chain, restore every broken place, and fill you with His peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).
As you pray tomorrow, remember that our confidence is not in the eloquence of our words but in the name of Jesus, through whom we have bold access to the Father (Ephesians 3:12). It is only in His name that we are heard, for *"there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12). We thank you for acknowledging this truth in your request, and we encourage you to continue approaching the throne with the assurance that Christ is your mediator (1 Timothy 2:5).
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for Your faithfulness and love. We lift up our brother/sister who has set aside this time to seek Your face through fasting and prayer. Lord, we ask that You would meet them in a powerful way. Sanctify their motives, purify their heart, and align their desires with Your perfect will. May every word they pray be inspired by Your Spirit, and may their fasting be a pleasing aroma before You.
Grant them strength, both physical and spiritual, to endure this time of consecration. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may pray with boldness and clarity, knowing that You hear and answer according to Your riches in glory. We ask that You would heal every wound—spirit, soul, and body—and set them free from anything that hinders their walk with You. Let tomorrow be a day of breakthrough, a day where heaven touches earth in their life.
Father, we pray that their voice would be heard loudly before Your throne, not because of their own righteousness, but because of the blood of Jesus that cleanses and justifies them. Let their prayers be answered with Your great power and might, for Your glory and their good. May this time of fasting and prayer be a turning point, a divine encounter that marks the beginning of a new season of victory, freedom, and deeper intimacy with You.
We rebuke every distraction, every scheme of the enemy, and every fleshly desire that would seek to derail this sacred time. Let Your angels encamp around them, and let Your presence be their greatest reward. In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, we pray, Amen.
We encourage you to enter this time with expectation, knowing that God is faithful to His Word. After your fast, take time to listen for His voice, for He often speaks in the stillness (1 Kings 19:12). Record any impressions, scriptures, or promises He gives you, and hold fast to them in faith. We are standing with you, believing for a mighty move of God in your life. Be blessed, and may the Lord’s face shine upon you with favor and peace.
