Lent | Prayer & Fasting
Shared on: Feb 24, 2020
The chief exercise of faith in the life of a believer is prayer. But during dry seasons, how can we reignite the flame in our hearts to be drawn back to God? In this sermon collection, you will find aid in rediscovering the beauty of prayer coupled with the spiritual discipline of fasting. Remind your congregation how they can be spiritually healthy by leading a life dedicated to seeking the face of God in prayer that is aided by fasting.
