DAY 5 of #21DaysOfPrayerAndFasting

Welcome to DAY 5 of our #21DaysOfPrayerAndFasting journey! Over the next 21 days, our staff will be taking over social media for some candid conversations centered around our daily prayer focuses & some Scripture to go along with it. Today, Chris McCracken, our CFO, is breaking down DAY 5! He oversees our Finance Department, so it’s only fitting for him to pray over todays focus of sensing God in our finances! After all, God IS our provider. 🙏Prayer Focus: His Presence in My Finances 📖Verse: Philippians 4:19 NLT During Week One of our 21-day journey, we’re going to be focusing on SENSING His Presence in every area of our lives. In Luke 18:36-37, it says, “When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening. They told him, ‘Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.’” — As we head into 2024, our churchwide focus is to take “one step closer” to Jesus, which looks different for everyone. Sunday in service, we reflected on the story of the Blind Man found in Luke 18:35-43, where we witnessed a practical example of how to apply this in our lives. The blind man was healed because he: (1) Sensed His Presence, (2) Solicited His Involvement, and (3) Followed His Instruction. These 3 things set him up to (4) Receive His Blessing. Over the next 21 days, don’t let your motivation be the blessing; but rather, be motivated to encounter the BLESSER. Seek proximity to Jesus.
