Days of Prayer and Fasting 2024
November 1-21
Each year our world-wide GCI Ministry Family sets aside November 1-21 to humble ourselves before the Lord through prayer and fasting. It‘s a dedicated time to seek His face and engage Him with all our heart. Our focus this year is about the journey to sincere and pure devotion to Christ Jesus. We have selected passages from both the Old and New Testaments.

Prayer and Fasting Focus
We invite you to join us on our journey of prayer and fasting. This year our scripture selections are from both the Old and New Testaments. These scriptures will give insight into what it takes for each of us to get back to a place of sincere and pure devotion to Christ. We will be reminded that the purpose of salvation and Jesus’ death on the cross was always about us coming back into relationship with the Father. His presence is accessible to all those who receive the Holy Spirit through faith in Jesus Christ. He wants to hear from us and as we spend time in His presence, He will respond.
“The nations will see your vindication, and all kings your glory; you will be called by a new name that the mouth of the Lord will bestow. ” Isaiah 62:2
These next 21 days will allow us to dive into scriptures that center on the Father’s love and the benefits of relationship with Him. We will be affirmed that our relational connection with Him exemplifies the great love He has for each of us.
