Day 1 - Spiritual Warfare
“Father God, as I fast, arm me for spiritual warfare. Help me put on your full armor without one piece missing. Allow me to stand firm against and recognize the schemes of the devil. In Your mighty power, I claim victory over every spiritual battle. Amen.”
Ephesians 6:11-18 describes the armor of God, essential for spiritual battles. Make sure you are clothed in this armor. Your assignment will require it.
Ephesians 6:11-18 The Voice - 11 Put on the full armor of God to protect yourselves from the devil and his evil schemes. 12 We’re not waging war against enemies of flesh and blood alone. No, this fight is against tyrants, against authorities, against supernatural powers and demon princes that slither in the darkness of this world, and against wicked spiritual armies that lurk about in heavenly places. 13 And this is why you need to be head-to-toe in the full armor of God: so you can resist during these evil days and be fully prepared to hold your ground. 14 Yes, stand—truth banded around your waist, righteousness as your chest plate, 15 and feet protected in preparation to proclaim the good news of peace. 16 Don’t forget to raise the shield of faith above all else, so you will be able to extinguish flaming spears hurled at you from the wicked one. 17 Take also the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 Pray always. Pray in the Spirit. Pray about everything in every way you know how! And keeping all this in mind, pray on behalf of God’s people. Keep on praying feverishly, and be on the lookout until evil has been stayed.
Day 2 - Discernment
“Lord of Wisdom, as I fast, I ask for the gift of discernment. Help me to distinguish between truth and falsehood, making decisions that align with Your will. Guide me by Your Holy Spirit in every aspect of my life. Amen.”
Meditate on Hebrews 5:14 which speaks about the maturity of discernment, crucial for living a life that is in tune with God’s will and purposes.
Hebrews 5:14 ESV - But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.
Day 3 - Fruitfulness in Ministry
As you meditate on scripture today, ask for God’s blessing and effectiveness in spiritual work and outreach.
“Father God on this third day of fasting, I pray for fruitfulness in my ministry. We are all called to share your Gospel. Give me courage and boldness when I feel afraid. May my efforts bear fruit for Your Kingdom, and may lives be transformed through the work You have entrusted to me. In Your mighty name, Amen.”
John 15: AMP - I am the Vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in Me and I in him bears much fruit, for [otherwise] apart from Me [that is, cut off from vital union with Me] you can do nothing.
