Fasting and prayer are not bargaining chips. This week, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung reminds us that the way we live our lives has a direct bearing on whether or not God answers our prayers, for the Lord places more importance on the person who is praying than in the content of our prayers.
Our attitudes and motives must be aligned with God’s purpose as we fast and pray. We should approach fasting not as a religious ritual but rather as a spiritual exercise that helps us grow deeper in our relationship with God.
When we become a new creation in Christ, our new life is God’s message to the world. This week, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung reminds us that the world will know the Lord of grace, justice, love, and mercy by how we live our lives.
Man was created to glorify God and satisfy His heart. This week, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung reminds Christians of our mission: to work towards the accomplishment of the Lord’s will until His justice is manifested and God’s heart is satisfied.
