A Call to Prayer and Fasting...


HAPPY NEW YEAR…!

Dear Hillcrest Church Family,

Here we are on the cusp of a brand new year and as I heard one person put it many years ago, “Our future is as bright as the promises of God!” The Lord has planted a very simple yet powerful promise from His Word deep in my heart,
Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you.” (James 4:8 ESV) 
As we begin our annual 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting today, I call upon you to ask God how He would have you to participate in this time. Through prayer and fasting, we are laying a foundation for our future as individuals and as a congregation.

In our service this morning, I am going to be sharing some key principles concerning fasting from the life of Jesus. If you would like further information on this subject, I encourage you to check out two of my blog posts from a few years back by clicking here and here.

Blessings!

Pastor Mark
