CHC Newsletter: FIRST Prayer Night Tonight » City Harbor Church

Sharing Life Together

Pastor’s Weekly

Clarity over cravings. Fasting affects our thinking and feeling by choosing self-control, and increasing our spiritual focus on God.

Choosing to go without food for the purpose of more time given to our relationship with God, this is fasting. We are then able to give more energy to prayer, worship, and Scripture.

If you are a born again follower of Jesus Christ who struggles to sense or follow the subtle guidance of the Holy Spirit, you should increase your fasting and prayer (at periodic times over the year including the support of fellow church members). The results will be noticeable within weeks. You will discover an increased awareness of God.

This Week

FIRST Prayer Night – Tonight, Wednesday, January 21st

The Fellowship Hall is open at 6:00 pm for Church Family Dinner and/or to hang out before FIRST Prayer Night and CHC Youth start at 7:00 pm.

CHC Youth Night Tonight

Family Meal – This Sunday, January 25th

Save the Date

FIRST January 4th – 24th

Going without food for the sake of more prayer, seeking God, is fasting. You may choose to go without social media and/or various forms of entertainment. You may choose to go without food for a meal, for a day, or for a number of days. This spiritual discipline can help us remove clutter in our thoughts, emotions, or spirit. It may also increase our sensitivity to the Holy Spirit. Please consider more time in prayer, Bible reading/memorization, and worship. As part of our FIRST focus these next three weeks, we will be meeting on Wednesday nights to worship God and pray together.

Jesus Night – Wednesday, January 28th

If we want more people to interact with Jesus Christ we should be involved. Please pray and ask the Holy Spirit to help you identify who you should share Jesus with. Think about it and jot down some ideas. Pray about it more. Our monthly “Jesus Nights” give an opportunity to invite people who would be interested in hearing you share your Jesus-story.

Prayer Topics

Salvation – more people receiving Jesus as Savior
Vision – increased faith for miracles
Strategy – our next steps in sharing Jesus
Righteousness – leaders and citizens choosing right from wrong
Peace – miracles of building healthy relationships
Love – sharing Jesus inspired agape love
Clarity – improved perspective and discernment
