AUGUST 17-22
From the beginning of Action Church, we have made it a priority to seek God first in prayer. Through prayer and fasting, we set aside all distractions and open our hearts to what God has to say. Join us this August for a week of fasting and intentional prayer - we can’t wait to see what He is going to do!
Theme: God Works in Me and Through Me
Every time I think of you, I give thanks to my God. Whenever I pray, I make my requests for all of you with joy, for you have been my partners in spreading the Good News about Christ from the time you first heard it until now. And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.
Philippians 1:3-6 NLT

In this type of fast, you drink only liquids, typically water with light juices as an option.

This partial fast involves abstaining from food from the time you wake up, until 10AM (the conclusion of our final prayer gathering), using that morning time for focused prayer and seeking God.
If you can’t make it to a prayer gathering, you can still join us in prayer and fasting wherever you are! Throughout the week, you will find daily devotionals, prayer points, and helpful links here.

DAY 6 | SATURDAY, AUGUST 22
Expand the Influence of Action Church
You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father. – Matthew 5:14-16 NLT
Thank God that He has invited you to partner with Action Church in the spreading of the Gospel. Retrace the path that led you to Action Church, and thank God for every step on your journey here.
Pray for our church pastors, staff, outreach teams, and members that their good deeds would be lights in the darkness, guiding people directly to Christ.
Lift up your school, your neighborhood, your place of work, and the businesses you frequent. Pray that you would be intentional every time you go so the light of Christ will shine through you in all these places.
Pray for our community, that the light of the gospel would remake schools, colleges and universities, government, and businesses. Ask for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit to transform life in central Florida so that it is honoring to God.
Ask God to reveal any next steps you need to take to help Action Church expand its influence.
