Teach Us To Pray

This devotional, titled "Teach Us To Pray," provides a 7-day guide for prayer and fasting in this new season. Authored by contributors from City Blessing Church, the guide invites participants to experience a deeper encounter with Jesus through surrender, repentance, and reflection.

The Practice of Fasting:
Fasting is described as a voluntary spiritual discipline designed to deepen one's connection with God, align with His will, and strengthen character.

Participants are encouraged to:
Use fasting as a means to draw nearer to God and resist fleshly temptations. Consult a physician before fasting, particularly for extended periods.
‍
Fasting is not advisable in certain circumstances, such as for pregnant or nursing women, those severely debilitated, or individuals with conditions like AIDS or cancer. It's also not recommended for those with cardiac issues, mental illness, or severe liver or kidney disease without close medical supervision. Additionally, children under 12 are also discouraged from fasting. Certain medications can interfere, so consulting a physician before fasting, especially for extended periods, is crucial.
