AWAKEN DAY 17


Fasting Item : Sweets & junk food

Daily Scripture Reading : Mark 8


Even though the disciples had seen Jesus work miracles before, they didn't believe he could ever do them again. It was as though they simply forgot! But Jesus' work was never about the miracle - it was surrendering every care to Him and trusting His ability. This is a key to keeping our faith alive. So how do we keep from responding the way the disciples did? No matter what your situation, surrender every care to God. His amazing miracle-working power is still alive today if we will just release our burden to Him. He will supply above and beyond what you need.

What are you holding onto that you can surrender to God today? In your prayer time, release every care you have to the Lord and believe He will take care of it.

awaken | day 20

AWAKEN DAY 20 Fasting Item : Technology, meats, sweets, & junk food Daily Scripture Reading : Mark 9 Why did Jesus only take 3 of the disciples up to the mountain? Maybe it's because we give more access to those we're the most connected to. Being close to God doesn't have to happen just during AWAKEN. Keep it going the next 21 days by making prayer, fasting, and devotions a regular part of your life.  Get alone with God. Disconnect every now and then from your phone and other distractions and you'll find that being close to God can be something you experience everyday.

awaken | day 9

 AWAKEN DAY 9 Fasting Item : Meats, sweets, & junk food Daily Bible Reading : 1 Samuel 15 After being confronted in this chapter, Saul finally confessed that he was wrong. But something was missing: he never repented and turned back to God. All the way to the end, Saul still only cared about what other people thought. What pride. What arrogance. Compromise after compromise led down a road of complete destruction. No matter where we are, if we turn around and run back to God, He forgives us, restores us, and puts us back on the right track. Are you holding onto something God told you to get rid of?  Have you compromised your walk with God?  In your prayer time today, don't just confess, but repent! Turn away from this things and back to God. You will be refreshed when you do! SCRIPTURE                          OBSERVATION                    ...

awaken | finish strong

FINISH STRONG Your Next 21 Days Whether you're tired, hungry, or excited to be completing your fast, hang in there! Though the fast may be ending, it's really the beginning of a great year, walking with God. Remember, the whole point of this fast was to sacrifice food and other luxuries for the sake fo giving God our undivided attention and growing deeper in Him. The fire and zeal for God burning in your heart is what keeps your relationship with Him fresh and new. It allows you to continue serving and obeying Him from a position of "want to", and you will experience joy everyday - regardless of what life brings your way. Keep going the next 21 days... and the 21 days after that.... and so on. What you have practiced in these 3 weeks is super easy to sustain long-term. Prayer, fasting, and personal devotion are all quite simple to make part of your everyday life. During Awaken, you've created space for God to fill. The best way to continue in these same practices ...
