Awakening 21 Day 3

Our Church is in full-swing of this years Awakening 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting. This is a time of the year where we collectively set aside 21 days to fast and seek God. In order to get where God wants to take us we must seek Him through prayer and fasting.

Psalms 2:8 Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession.

  • God says that all we have to do is ask and He will give us the nations.
Rev 2:26 To him who overcomes and does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations.

  • We must have these two characteristics:
  1. Overcoming attitude
  2. Patience
In my endeavors 2010, I learned that anything worth accomplishing will come with pain and trials. I learned that I must not focus on short-term setbacks but that I must keep my eyes fixed on the prize and run with perseverance. God's word says that He will give us the nations (everything that we could imagine and more) if we ask Him (seek Him), overcome challenges and wait patiently.

I pray that God will impress upon you an overcoming attitude that will not back down in the face of challenges.
