THE SPRING FEASTS SUMMARY And the Lord spoke to Moses saying, “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: the feasts of the Lord, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, these are My feasts.” Leviticus 23:1-2 The Spring Feasts consist of four festivals: Passover, The Feast of Unleavened Bread, The Feast of Firstfruits and Pentecost (The Feast of Weeks). These feasts are extremely important because they teach us to honor God for who He is and for what He has done for us. In addition, they teach us about God’s plan for humankind and how He powerfully intervenes in human affairs! Revelation 21:3 says “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God, Himself will be with them and be their God.” PASSOVER Passover begins at sundown, April 22nd through sundown, April 23rd. This feast celebrates the Israelites’ deliverance from Egypt through Moses and humanity’s deliverance from sin and death through Jesus Christ. Passover is observed through the Passover Seder Meal. The Passover Seder Meal is a family gathering established by God to celebrate the liberation of Israel from Egyptian captivity and humanity’s redemption from sin and death. It is a celebration meal to be shared by family members and friends. The Church Family Seder Meal will be held on Monday, April 22nd in your homes using the Home Seder Guide. Things You Need to Know Passover begins at sundown, April 22nd and ends at sundown, April 23rd. The Church Family Seder Meal will be held in your home on Monday, April 22nd at 7:00 p.m. For further information, go online @ www.kingdombuilders.com. THE FEAST OF UNLEAVENED BREAD Exodus 12:14-20 and Leviticus 23:5-8 explains the origin and purpose of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. The Feast of Unleavened Bread begins the day after Passover and continues for seven days (sundown, April 23rd– sundown, April 30th). The observance of the Feast of Unleavened Bread is a symbol of our commitment to turn toward righteousness and turn away from sin. During this week-long feast, nothing with leaven in it may be eaten. Abstaining from leavened bread for seven days is symbolic of God’s people separating themselves from sin and turning towards a holy relationship with the Lord. The Lord requires us to clean our homes of any food products that contain leaven, yeast, baking powder, baking soda, or sodium bicarbonate. Foods with leaven include breads, cereals, cakes, pies, crackers, and soups. Read the labels on all of your foods, especially in the pantry and freezer. A list of foods containing leaven is listed on pages 9. Things You Need to Know The Feast of Unleavened Bread begins at sundown, April 23rd and ends at sundown, April 30th. During this month, begin to clear your home of food products containing leaven. The only bread to be eaten during this Feast is matzah or bread without yeast. All believers are to bring a sacrificial offering each day beginning sundown, April 23rd through sundown, April 30th. You may bring your offering to The KBC dropbox, use the mobile app, give online, text: GIVE & your dollar amount to 713-322-7711 or mail to: 4

WVUMC Attention: Claudia Stubblefield 6011 West Orem Drive Houston, Texas 77085 www.kingdombuilders.com Please note: These offerings are not your tithe. They are separate and in addition to your tithe. THE FEAST OF FIRSTFRUITS The word firstfruits means “a promise to come.” On the day of Firstfruits, the Church Family will bring a special offering to the Lord. This offering will represent the firstfruits of any financial income since the Feast of Tabernacles which was held in October 2023. In Leviticus 23:9-14, the first crops of the barley harvest were offered to God as an offering of thanksgiving for the promise of an abundant harvest. This offering, lifted up to the Lord, is called the early firstfruits. In I Corinthians 15:23, Jesus is considered the firstfruit of the harvest of all who have died in him. This Feast was fulfilled when Jesus rose from the dead and ascended into heaven. For Christians, this feast is important because it celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ! Things You Need to Know The Feast of Firstfruits begins at sundown, April 27th and ends at sundown, April 28th. Prepare to offer to the Lord a Firstfruit offering on Sunday, April 28th. You may bring your offering to The KBC dropbox, use the mobile app, give online, text: GIVE & your dollar amount to 713-322- 7711 or mail. You determine the amount of this special offering, symbolizing your thanksgiving to God for providing the “early” spring harvest. The “latter” spring harvest will occur during Pentecost. The firstfruit offering is not your tithe. It is separate and in addition to your tithe. THE FEAST OF PENTECOST The Feast of Pentecost celebrates the giving of the Ten Commandments in the Old Testament and the Holy Spirit in the New Testament. This feast is to be filled with joy and thanksgiving for God’s bountiful blessings of the harvest. During the celebration of Pentecost, believers will bring the firstfruits of any financial income since the Passover. This offering is called the latter firstfruit offering and symbolizes our thanksgiving to God for providing the “latter” spring harvest. The Church Family will offer its latter firstfruits at Victory Wednesday, Wednesday, June 12th, 2024. Things You Need to Know • Pentecost begins sundown, June 11th and ends at sundown, June 13th. • We will have a Dunamis Night of Miracles, Healing, and Deliverance on Wednesday, June 12 at 7 p.m. at the KBC.The Church Family will offer its latter firstfruits during this special service. • Prepare to offer your latter firstfruit offering during Pentecost Celebration. This is a special offering from any financial income since the Passover Festivals. If you are unable to meet God’s appointed time, you may bring your offering to The KBC dropbox, use the mobile app, give online, text: GIVE & your dollar amount to 713-322-7711 or mail. 5

“God’s Holy Days” As our Church Family prepares to celebrate the Spring Feasts, consider scheduling the following days off from work. In Leviticus 23, God instructs the Israelites to “do no customary work” on specific days associated with the feasts because He considers them Holy days. The general interpretation of “no customary work” is taking the day off from your job or any activity that contributes to your income. Any work that is done in preparation of the feast is acceptable. The Lord understands if you have to work, but if you can, take the day off to enjoy the Lord and your family. Remember all Holy days begin at sundown the evening before the calendar day listed. No Customary Work Days: Monday, April 22nd Tuesday, April 23rd Tuesday, April 30th References: A Family Guide to the Biblical Holidays by Robin Sampson & Linda Pierce The Messianic Church Arising by Dr. Robert Heidler The Jewish Holidays: A Guide and Commentary by M.

GUIDELINES FOR CELEBRATING THE SPRING FEASTS Preparing for the Passover The Passover Seder Meal is a family gathering established by God to celebrate the liberation of Israel from Egyptian captivity and humanity’s redemption from sin and death through Jesus Christ. It is a celebration meal to be shared by family members and friends. The Church Family Seder Meal will be on Monday, April 22nd in your home using the Home Seder Guide. Preparing for the Feast of the Unleavened Bread The observance of the Feast of Unleavened Bread offers us an intentional time to “spring clean” our lives. Explain to your friends and family that as we celebrate Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread, we ask God for the power to choose a life not dominated by sin and live in the freedom found in obedience to His Kingdom ways. LET’S GET THE LEAVEN OUT! You may eat leavened products until sundown, Tuesday April 23rd, 2024. However, please begin to remove them from your home (by eating or discarding them), now through sundown, Tuesday April 23rd . On Monday April 22nd, conduct a final inspection of your home for any leavened products. Traditionally, the head of the household does this final inspection. By sundown on the evening of April 23rd, all leavened products should absolutely be out of your home and not eaten for the next seven (7) days. You may begin to purchase and consume them again after sundown on April 30th. I. What is Leaven? Leaven is yeast or any “fermenting” substance used to make dough or other foods rise or sour. Some yeast derivatives are added to foods for flavor or nutritional purposes. The rules of leavening also apply to foods prepared from five types of grain: barley, wheat, rye, oats and spelt. Removing food products that contain leaven (yeast, baking soda, baking powder, sodium bicarbonate, autolyzed yeast, & yeast extract) has its roots in ancient Passover preparation. Thirty days before the Passover and Feast of Unleavened Bread, the women of every household began removing all leaven (known as “chametz” in Hebrew) from their homes. Removing leaven is a spiritual as well as a physical cleansing. Jesus spoke of leaven as a symbol of sin in the gospels (i.e., Luke 12:1), and the apostle Paul did likewise in I Corinthians 5:6-8. II. Instructions for Removing Leavened Food Products Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. On the first day you shall remove leaven from your houses. For whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that person shall be cut off from Israel. On the first day there shall be a holy convocation, and on the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation for you. No manner of work shall be done on them; but that which everyone must eat-- that only may be prepared by you. So, you shall observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread, for on this same day I will have brought your armies out of the land of Egypt. Therefore, you shall observe this day throughout your generations as an everlasting ordinance. In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread until the twenty-first day of the month at evening. For seven days no leaven shall be found in your houses, since whoever eats what is leavened, that same person shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is a stranger or a native of the land. You shall eat nothing leavened; in all your dwellings you shall eat unleavened bread. Exodus 12: 15-19 (NKJV) 7

The Lord requires us to clean our homes of any food products that contain any kind of leaven: yeast, baking powder, baking soda, sodium bicarbonate, autolyzed yeast, or yeast extract. Also, traditionally most foods that contain wheat, barley, rye, oats, or spelt, except for matzah, are refrained from during Passover, as they are often processed in mills where leaven is present. Foods with leaven include most breads, cereals, cakes, pies, crackers, and soups. Read the labels on all of your foods, especially in the pantry and freezer. You may be surprised about the foods that contain leaven. It is easy to identify packaged foods that are usable during the Feast of Unleavened Bread by looking for product packages bearing one of these symbols: or “OU Kosher for Passover. Here is a suggested leavening removal guide. Try to eat these foods during this removal time period: March 30th – April 7th: All foods containing leaven or the 5 forbidden grains. April 8th – April 14th: All canned goods containing leaven or the 5 forbidden grains. April 15th – April 17th: All cereal products containing leaven and all bread, crackers, and pastry products containing leaven or the 5 forbidden grains. April 18th – April 22nd: All seasonings, sauces, and condiments containing leaven or the 5 forbidden grains. Sundown, April 23rd: All leavened products should be out of the home. The general idea is to symbolize a purified life in Jesus by “eating clean” for the 7 days of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. This diet is also a healthier way to eat. III. Here are some examples of foods to keep in your home: All fresh fruits, vegetables, 100% fruit juices, milk, eggs, unflavored nuts, peas, beans, rice, quinoa, matzah, good quality meats, and packaged foods with the or “OU Kosher for Passover” symbols. Most major grocery stores in the Houston area now have a Kosher food section. Example of Kosher for Passover product labels: Warning: While many items marked Parve or Pareve (meaning “neutral”) may be kosher for Passover, not all items are. Please read package label and ingredients carefully. 8

Here are some examples of items you should remove from your home. Accent ® Seasoning Alcoholic beverages Baker’s yeast Bakery products (i.e. bagels, donuts, cookies, cakes) Bread of all kinds Breaded fish/chicken/meat Brewer’s yeast Most catsup. Read the label! Cheeses & Processed Cheese Spread All Crackers (Saltine, Wheat Thins, etc) Doritos & flavored chips Aged and fermented products Wheat Flour, all kinds Bottled water with minerals (it contains Sodium Bicarbonate) Lipton® Noodles and Sauce Malted/barley products Pasta products Pizza Pretzels Pringles® Ramen noodles Some sausage contains grain fillers and/or yeast derivatives. Soy sauce Stuffing mix All cereal products (that contain oats, wheat, barley, rye, or spelt.) Some smoked and cured meats. Please read the label. Some curing and artificial smoking processes use yeast extract! Again, if in doubt, ask the following questions: 1. Does this food or drink contain any leavening agents? Yeast or yeast derivatives? Baking soda or baking powder? Was yeast (or any other leavening agent) involved in the process of making this food? NOTE: ALL fermented foods/drinks are NOT allowable during Passover, except that which is specifically labeled as kosher for Passover. 2. Does this food or drink contain any wheat (except matzah or matzah products), barley, rye, oats, or spelt? If the answer to either of these questions is "yes," then that food is NOT allowable during the Feast of Unleavened Bread. 9

Examples of Passover Food Alternatives: I NORMALLY EAT… DURING PASSOVER I CAN EAT… Bread, Saltine Crackers, Rolls, Cornbread, Wheat Tortilla Chips, Oatmeal Matzah, Plain Corn Chips, Plain Potato Chips, Rice Cakes, Rice Cereal (Rice Chex or commercial hot rice cereals that do not contain malted barley) Chicken Noodle Soup Kosher for Passover Matzah Ball Soup French Toast or Pancakes Matzah Brie, Recipe: http://www.jewfaq.org/kfpfood.htm#Brie Chicken Nuggets Baked chicken strips, or chicken pieces rolled in matzah meal or potato flour and baked.

Preparing for the Feast of Firstfruits and Counting of the Omer I. Feast of Firstfruits On the day of Firstfruits, believers will bring the firstfruits of any financial increase received since the Feast of Tabernacles in October 2023. The firstfruit offering, called the early firstfruit, is not your tithe or regular offering. It is separate and in addition to your tithe. You determine the amount of this special offering, symbolizing your thanksgiving to God for providing the “early” spring harvest. You may bring your offering to The KBC, use the mobile app, give online or by mail. II. Counting the Omer The daily “counting of the omer” will begin the evening of April 23rd. • The Omer Calendar is on page 18. • After marking off the day, pray the following blessing with your children until the 50th day, “We praise You, O Lord our God, King of the Universe, who has sanctified us by Jesus Christ, our eternal Redeemer and Savior, and commanded us to count the Omer. By faith, we wait with joyful hearts to celebrate the sending of Your Holy Spirit.” • Remember to count the omer beginning at sundown, April 23rd. Preparing for Pentecost (Feast of Weeks) III. Pentecost During the celebration of Pentecost, believers will bring the firstfruits of any income received since the Passover festivals. This offering is called the latter firstfruit offering. It is separate and in addition to your tithe. You determine the amount of this special offering, symbolizing your thanksgiving to God for providing the “latter” spring harvest. On Wednesday, June 12th at the Dunamis: A Night of Miracles, Healing and Deliverance, we will present our latter firstfruit offering to the Lord at our Pentecost Worship Celebration. This is a special offering from any financial income since the Passover Festivals. If you are unable to meet God’s appointed time, you may bring your offering to The KBC, use the mobile app, give online, text: GIVE & your dollar amount to 713-322-7711 or by mail. IV. Pentecost Celebration Activities • It is tradition to eat dairy products during Pentecost because the law was compared to milk and honey. When the Israelites were awaiting the arrival of their new commandments and were unsure as to what their new dietary laws would be, they ate only dairy products and vegetables. Eating cheesecake and blintzes is a particular favorite during this feast. • Decorate your home with flowers and greenery, which represent the latter spring harvest and the Law as a “tree of life.” • Read the “Book of Acts” with your family. • Study Scriptures about the Holy Spirit. A few Scriptures are provided below. I baptize you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit!" Mark 1:8 NLT The angel replied, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the baby born to you will be holy, and He will be called the Son of God.” Luke 1:35 NLT 11

And the Holy Spirit descended on Him in the form of a dove. And a voice from heaven said, "You are my beloved Son, and I am fully pleased with You." Luke 3:22 NLT "And now I will send the Holy Spirit, just as my Father promised. But stay here in the city until the Holy Spirit comes and fills you with power from heaven." Luke 24:49 NLT Then He breathed on them and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit.” John 20:22 NLT John baptized with water, but in just a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit." Acts 1:5 Pentecost Worship Celebration will be held on Sunday, June 9th. To God be the glory for the great and awesome things He has done. Thank God for our Helper, the Holy Spirit. God has extended a special invitation to all of His children. We look forward to seeing you at His parties. Expect with eager anticipation to experience more of God’s love, anointing, power, provision, authority and presence throughout the Spring Feast season.

Fasting Instructions for Children and Youth God gives us pastors according to His heart who will feed us with knowledge and understanding (Jeremiah 3:15). We must obey our pastors for they watch over our souls (Hebrews 13:17). Parents should teach and guide by their example the importance of following the leadership of our pastors. When Pastor Caldwell proclaims the fast, children and youth are capable of obeying and participating. Parents, please prayerfully consider including your children and youth in the Church Family Spiritual Fast. It will be a blessed experience for them and it will begin to lay a foundation for their future. Your support and encouragement are recommended to maximize your child’s success. Fasting has been a part of Christianity through the ages. It is a form of spiritual and scriptural sacrifice. Fasting does not change or impress God. Fasting changes us. Through fasting, Christians are empowered to discipline their daily relationship with the Lord. The fast will consist of abstaining from food. In other words, you are fasting if you are not eating food. The primary method of fasting will be one (1) meal each day. Social Media/TV Options Fasting is an opportunity for Christians to practice the fruit of self-discipline by abstaining from personal pleasure to focus our entire attention on God. Therefore, during the Church Family Fast, you can also include abstaining from all forms of social media, such as Facebook, X, Instagram, Snap-Chat, TikTok, etc. or you can choose the technical option by abstaining from watching shows on television, YouTube, Netflix, Hulu or online streaming. The focus is to go silent and keep all forms of social media and TV off throughout the fast. However, remember to choose either of these options or both only in addition to our primary method of fasting which is no food. I. What is a Fast? The Hebrew word for fasting means “to cover the mouth.” Fasting has been a part of Christianity through the ages. It is a form of spiritual and scriptural sacrifice. Fasting does not change or impress God. Fasting changes us. Through fasting, Christians are empowered to discipline their daily relationship with the Lord. II. Why Should Children and Youth Fast? • To have a closer relationship with God our Father and Jesus Christ; • To become more sensitive and responsive to the Holy Spirit; • To present the opportunity for you to spend more time waiting on the Lord; and • To build your prayer life. As children and youth fast, they, too, will receive the benefits and blessings of obedience and fasting. III. How to Fast • Eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner. • Eat healthy vegetables, fruits, meats, breads, milk, and cereal. 14

• Eat a healthy snack between meals such as fruit, vegetables, etc. • Drink WATER, 100% JUICE, and MILK as the only beverages. NO SWEETS, PIZZA, FRENCH FRIES, CHIPS, CANDY, CHEWING GUM, SOFT DRINKS, OR ANY OTHER JUNK FOODS! V. What Are We Praying About During the Fast? Please help your child (ren) pray each prayer on the appropriate day as designated by the Prayer Topic Calendar. THE PROMISE OF GIVING The Promise of Giving is designed to encourage giving while fasting. In Isaiah 58:6-12, the Lord explains that an acceptable fast to Him includes feeding and clothing those who are in need, restoring broken relationships with family, and sharing with strangers. During this fast, you are encouraged to use some of the money that you would spend on groceries and eating out by providing for others. Church Family, for Spring Feasts this year, we are rallying around The KBC Kenya to provide coats and books for children and youth and funds to help with the center’s needs. To support The KBC Kenya through The Promise of Giving, visit: https://www.kingdombuilders.com/giving/ C 15

HOW TO USE YOUR KINGDOM BUILDERS’ POWER GUIDE Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the topics that we have asked of Him. I John 5:14-15 The Power Guide is designed as a tool for study, reflection and prayer. Each prayer is written based on the model of the Lord’s Prayer (see Matthew 6:9-13). In order to maximize the use of your guide, please follow the listed instructions. 1. Set aside a few minutes each day to pray individually, with your family or prayer partner(s). Gradually build your prayer time with the Lord to at least thirty (30) to sixty (60) minutes each day. You can split up your prayer time, if necessary, and pray a few minutes in the morning and evening. You choose the time of day that is good for you. Find a comfortable place to pray and turn off any distractions. If you have small children who need most of your attention, pray the daily prayer with them. Let God’s Word saturate their hearing. 2. Refer to the Prayer Topics Calendar on page 17 for the specific prayer for the day. Only pray for the prayer topic that is assigned to that day so that we are unified in our daily praying. Please do not get ahead of the prayer for the day. Before praying the “Scriptural Prayer,” first read the Scriptures listed for “Scripture Reading.” 3. Pray the assigned prayer out loud. There is power in your verbal expression. Parents please encourage your children to pray their prayer topics in the Children’s Power Guide out loud. Youth (ages 13-17) may use the Adult Power Guide. 4. These prayers are intended to be a springboard to help you with your prayerful conversations. Trust the Holy Spirit to help you to expand upon the prayer that you are praying for the day. If you speak in tongues, please pray in tongues over each prayer topic. Relax, listen and enjoy the Lord. 5. Record any reflections, revelations, or inspiration given by the Holy Spirit in the Prayer Expectation section at the end of the Power Guide. 6. Believe that the Lord is hearing your prayer and know in your heart that your praying will produce God’s results for the prayer topic you are praying for. 7. After praying, make your daily power confession by using the Daily Power Confessions located on page 37 in the back of your Power Guide. When you speak God’s Word over your life, you activate the power of His Word to work in your life and produce God’s results for your life. Expect God’s Word to transform your life. We also recommend that you speak the Power Confessions over your family. 8. Enjoy your time spent with the Lord and thank you for helping to implement God’s plans for our Church Family. God Bless You! WV Leadership Team 16

Prayer Topic #1: A Prayer of Thanksgiving for Jesus Christ, Our Resurrected Savior Scripture Reading: Psalm 138:1-6, John 4:1-24 Scriptural Prayer: Heavenly Father, we thank You for being such a loving God. We thank You, Lord Jesus, for sacrificing Your life for us. Thank You for being mindful of us and becoming our Savior, Deliverer and Liberator. Lord, we will praise You at all times, we will constantly speak Your praises. We will boast only in You. We give thanks to You with our whole hearts; we will sing Your praises before the gods. We bow before Your holy temple and praise You for Your unfailing love and faithfulness; for Your promises are backed by all the honor of Your Name. Lord Jesus, thank You for making us right in God’s sight through Your resurrection and ascension. Because of You, we have peace with God. Through our faith in You we have been brought into a plan of undeserved privilege and we can confidently and joyfully look forward to sharing God’s glory. Hallel YAH! Lord, when we were utterly helpless, You came to earth at just the right time and died for us sinners. We realize that most people would not be willing to die for an upright person, though someone might perhaps be willing to die for a person who is especially good. But God showed His great love for us by sending You to die for us while we were still sinners. We declare that since we have been made right in God’s sight by Your blood, we are saved from God’s condemnation. It is because of Your death, our friendship with God has been restored. Today, we rejoice in our wonderful relationship with God, Abba Father, because You have made us heirs. Thank You for becoming our sacrifice. Thank You for enduring pain, shame, and humiliation for our righteousness. Because of You, we are God’s righteousness. Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Holy Spirit, help us to always remember that Jesus is our big Brother. Help us to love and appreciate Him, along with You and our Father, God. Please lead and guide our daily living so that we present the goodness of Christ to our families, friends, co-workers and enemies. Most of all, Holy Spirit, please heal and grow our natural and spiritual self-esteem so that we can be all that You have created us to be. Faithful Father, forgive us for devaluing the sacrifice Christ made for our freedom. Forgive us for taking communion with little regard to its meaning. Forgive us for all acts of sin, including stubbornness, arrogance, selfishness, ungratefulness, pride and rebellion. Forgive us for making a mockery of Jesus’ resurrection and ascension by returning to old bondages and enslaved mentalities. Lord, forgive me for any sins that I may have committed. Holy Spirit, remind us all of those we need to forgive and help us to be quick to forgive. As for me, Holy Spirit, bring to my remembrance those I need to forgive.

Help our Church Family to honor You with disciplined financial stewardship. Father, show us Your glory as we give our offerings during the Spring Feasts and please accept them as a sign of our love and devotion to You. Loving Father, forgive us when we have not brought our tithes and offerings to You. Forgive our hesitancy when we are asked to give to You. Forgive those who have created financial situations in their lives that are so desperately in need of repair that they are not positioned to give freely during the feasts. Forgive all of us for any selfishness or greed. Remind us of those that we owe so that we may repay our debts. Lord, forgive me for any sins that I have committed. Holy Spirit, remind us all of those we need to forgive and help us to be quick to forgive. As for me, Holy Spirit, bring to my remembrance those I need to forgive. (Take a moment and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal names or faces of people that you may need to forgive. As He reveals them, say, “I forgive name of person(s).” Now, trust the Lord to heal any wounds in your soul caused by unforgiveness.) Holy Spirit, help us not to yield to temptation but deliver us from the evil one. Lord God, the Almighty, You are the one who is and who always was. You have assumed Your great power and have begun to reign. All glory belongs to You, who alone is God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord. All glory, majesty, power, and authority are Yours before all time, in the present, and beyond all time! In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Prayer Topic #11 A Prayer of Forgiveness of Self Scripture Reading: Psalm 89:1-8, Romans 5:1-11 Scriptural Prayer: Divine Father, thank You for loving us, forgiving us and saving us. Thank You for Your unconditional love. Thank You for blotting out our sins and never thinking about them again. Thank You for helping each of us to forgive ourselves for past sins, mistakes and failures. Teach us Your decrees, O Lord; we will keep them to the end. Give us understanding and we will obey Your instructions; we will put them into practice with all our hearts. Make us walk along the path of Your commands, for that is where our happiness is found. Father God, this is the day that You have made. We will rejoice and be glad in it! Omniscient Father, according to Your Word, there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. So we declare that those persons in our Church Family who need to forgive themselves from their past will begin to walk in freedom instead of condemnation. We declare that they will begin to recognize that they are no longer slaves, but they are God’s own children; and not only children, but God has made them His heirs. We decree that every proud obstacle that keeps them from knowing You and the freedom they have in You is destroyed. Their rebellious thoughts will be captured and they will learn to obey Christ. Holy Spirit, we ask You to help all of us to forgive people who have hurt us, including ourselves. Heal our emotions that have been wounded and teach us how to love unconditionally. Remind us that nothing – not death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow, not even the powers of hell – can separate us from God’s love. Lord, help us to extend mercy to others and forget the past so that we can move forward toward our futures. Forgiving Father, we know that we have not always demonstrated Your character. Please have mercy upon us and do not take Your Spirit from us. You are our strong tower; without You we will perish. Please forgive us for not forgiving ourselves when You have already forgiven us. Forgive us for not letting Your love flow through us. Forgive us for rehearsing our past offenses in our minds. Lord, forgive me for any sins that I may have committed. Holy Spirit, remind us all to forgive each other and other people, and please help us to forgive. As for me, Holy Spirit, bring to my remembrance those I need to forgive. (Take a moment and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal names or faces of people that you may need to forgive. As He reveals them, say, “I forgive name of person(s).” Now, trust the Lord to heal any wounds in your soul caused by unforgiveness.) Holy Spirit, help us all not to yield to temptation but deliver us from the evil one. Triumphant Father, You are the God of gods and Lord of lords. You are the great God, the mighty and awesome God, who shows no partiality and cannot be bribed. The mountains melt like wax before You, Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim Your righteousness; every nation sees Your glory. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Thank You for being patient with us. Thank You for increasing Your presence, power, anointing, and abundance in our lives. We give thanks to You and proclaim Your greatness. Lord, we will let the whole world know what You have done in our lives. We will sing to You the praises due Your Name and tell everyone about Your wonderful deeds. Father, You are our God; we earnestly search for You. Our souls thirst for You; our bodies long for You in this parched and weary land where there is no water. We have seen You in Your sanctuary and gazed upon Your power and glory. Your unfailing love is better than life itself; how we praise You! Righteous Father, Your Word tells us that if we forgive those who have sinned against us, then You, our Heavenly Father, will forgive us. Today, we choose to forgive. We declare that we will make allowance for each other's faults and forgive anyone who has offended us. Lord, we remember that You have forgiven, therefore we must forgive others. As a Church Family, we choose to owe nothing to anyone, except for our obligation to love them. We confess that as we love our neighbors, we fulfill the requirement of God’s law. Holy Spirit, we ask You to help all of us individually and as a Church Family to forgive the people who have hurt us. Heal our emotions that have been wounded and teach us how to love unconditionally. Help us to be quick to listen and slow to speak. Holy Spirit, remind us all of the grace that the Lord has extended toward us, despite our sins against Him. Help us to liberally extend that same grace to others who have sinned against us. Discipline us so that we will not so easily take offense. Lord, help us to extend mercy to others and forget the past so that we can move forward toward our futures. Forgiving Father, please forgive us for not being forgiving. Forgive us for holding grudges, thinking evil thoughts, and seeking revenge. Forgive us for hatred and malice. Forgive us for not letting Your love flow through us to others. Forgive us for gossiping, lying and for rehearsing offenses in our minds. Lord, forgive me for any sins that I may have committed. Holy Spirit, remind us all to forgive each other and other people, and please help us to forgive. As for me, Holy Spirit, bring to my remembrance those I need to forgive. (Take a moment and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal names or faces of people that you may need to forgive.

Holy Spirit, help us all not to yield to temptation but deliver us from the evil one. Triumphant Lord, You are the eternal King, Your rule is everlasting. All the people of the earth are nothing compared to You. All of Your acts are just and true. You alone have held the oceans in Your hand. You measured the heavens with Your fingers and know the weight of the earth. The Lord God Almighty is Your Name. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

We are grateful for our fellowship and communion which we have with You, our Father. We thank You with all of our hearts as we meet with Your Godly people. Everything You do reveals Your glory and majesty. Your righteousness never fails. You are wonderful and Your Name is highly exalted. You are worthy of all our praise. You are worthy of the glory, honor and power. Lord, the heavens declare Your glory and the skies display Your craftsmanship. Mighty Father, Your will is for us to dwell together in unity. As a Church Family, we will motivate one another to acts of love and good works. We will not neglect our meeting together; but we will encourage one another in the faith. We will not get tired of doing what is good for each other. As a result, we expect to reap a harvest of blessing at the right time. We will not give up and at every opportunity we will do good to everyone—especially to those in our family of faith. Iron sharpens iron so we will surround ourselves with those who have like minds so that we are positioned to glorify You in our public and private lives. We will be doers of Your Word and not hearers only. We will fight for righteous fellowship and we will win. Holy Spirit, we ask that You align our relationships with Your will in our homes, church, jobs and communities. Show each of us how to organize our calendars and schedules so that Godly fellowship is more of a priority. Send Godly friends to those who are lonely. Help our Church Family to set the example of what righteous fellowship looks like. Lord, help us to be obedient as You order our steps. As we yield to the power of the Holy Spirit, help us to drop our gossip buddies, smoking buddies, promiscuous buddies, club-hopping buddies and anyone who the devil may use to keep us from glorifying God through our fellowship with the righteous. Help us to let our light so shine before people that they may see our good works and glorify You, our Heavenly Father. Merciful Father, forgive us for our sins. Forgive those who do not participate in Church Family activities. Forgive those for the unrighteous relationships that keep them from Your best for their lives. Forgive those for disobedience when You have told them to end certain relationships and they refuse to do so. Forgive us for the works of the flesh and the pride of life. Forgive us for having fellowship or relationship with anything that is not of You. Help us to know that there is no condemnation to those of us who are in Christ and that as we confess our sins, we are forgiven and that You remember them no more. Father, forgive me for any sins that I may have committed. Holy Spirit, remind us all of those we need to forgive and help us to be quick to forgive.

Therefore, we will enter into this season of consecration as a united Church Family. During this sacred time, we will give our bodies to You because of all You have done for us. We will let them be living and holy sacrifices—the kind that You will find acceptable. For we know that this is truly how we can worship You. We declare that we will not copy the behavior and customs of this world, but we will let You, Father, transform us into new people by changing the way we think. Then, we will learn to know Your will for our lives, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Lord, we decree that Your chosen fast will be operable in our lives through the Promise of Giving as we feed the hungry and help those in trouble. As we do this, our light will shine out from the darkness, and the darkness around us will be as bright as noon. Father, we confess that we will be diligent in prayer without ceasing during this time of fasting. We will meditate on Your Word day and night, and observe to do all that is within it. Holy Spirit, during this time of fasting please give us the power to overcome our fleshly appetites. Help us to follow You and the instructions given during the Church Family Fast. As we pray during the fast, Father, please speak to us and give us wisdom, increase our discernment, and show us Your plans for our lives individually as well as corporately for this season.

You are dressed in a robe of light. You stretch out the starry curtain of the heavens. You lay the rafters of Your home in the rain clouds. You make the clouds Your chariot and ride upon the wings of the wind. The Lord of Heaven’s Armies is Your Name! In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

They will seek Your Kingdom above all else and live righteously and trust that You will give them everything they need. As Kingdom citizens, they will trust You with their finances, families, businesses relationships and all other areas of their lives. Father, their works will reflect the faith that they have in You!

With Your own understanding, You stretched out the heavens. We love You! Hallel YAH! Gracious Father, we have tried to fast according to Your Word in Isaiah 58. We have shared food, clothing, and basic necessities with the poor. We have helped the homeless and our relatives. We have tried to live in Your righteousness and justice. We pray that our efforts have brought You glory. We are expecting Your salvation to come like the dawn. We are expecting our wounds (physical, emotional, and spiritual) to heal quickly. We look forward to Your Godliness leading us forward and Your glory protecting us from behind. We are fully confident that when we call on You, You will answer quickly, “Yes, I am here.” Hallel YAH!
