March 2018 – Preparing for a New Season
As we enter the month of April, we will pray for a season of renewal and restoration. This month’s prayers will also focus on the significance of starting the second quarter of 2018 (April-June).
For this month, select the type of fast that will work best for you given your weekend plans. I will be fasting from 6:00 am to 6:00 pm on Saturday. If you have family celebrations, then select a fast that will work for you.
Here are the prayer points for the day:
Saturday morning at 6:00 am. Give thanks for the month of March. Pray for all of the successes and challenges that you’ve experienced and thank God that every experience (whether good or bad) will all work together for His good and His glory. Romans 8:28
Saturday at 9:00 am. Pray for your sisters on this journey. Know that you are being prayed for by your fellow sisters and pray that you will all be strengthened together. Pray that we would learn to bear each other’s burdens and stand in the gap for each other. Galatians 6:2
Saturday at 12:00 pm. Pray for healing and restoration. Pray that as you continue to peel back the layers that God will restore everything that the enemy has stolen from you. Joel 2:25
