Daily Message:
Dear brothers and sisters, as we continue our 21 days of prayer and fasting, let us focus on repentance. The story of the prodigal son in Luke 15:11-24 is a powerful reminder of God’s love and forgiveness. Just as the father welcomed back his wayward son with open arms, so our heavenly Father welcomes us when we turn back to Him with sincere hearts. Let us confess our sins before God, turn away from our old ways, and embrace a new life in Christ. As we humble ourselves before God, He promises to hear our prayers, forgive our sins, and restore us to a right relationship with Him. May we draw near to Him with a sincere heart, and may He transform us into His likeness day by day. Let us press on in faith, for the Lord is faithful to complete the good work that He has begun in us!
