Read the Word
As part of our “In the Beginning” prayer and fasting season we are committing to read the Gospel of Mark during the month of January. Let’s read the Gospel of Mark and ask God to fill us with the power to love God, which looks like obedience; and to love others, which looks like serving and stepping out in faith to administer God’s grace with power.
Here's a reading plan to help guide you during the month of January. We will also send out a daily devotional based upon our readings in Mark. If you prefer a booklet, they will be available as well. Additionally, we have a copy of Bob Sorge’s recent book, “Reset: 20 Ways to a Consistent Prayer Life” for $1.
We also encourage you to use the following tools to chronicle your journey.
Pray WITH GOD
God has been so good to Gateway in 2018 and we believe great things will continue in 2019. Therefore, we are asking you to join us in 20 days of 24/7 prayer. From the beginning of creation, we discover a God who creates life with the power of His voice. When we listen and pray what He says, life is created. Beginning January 1, 2019 at 8:00am, we will partner with Him for 20 days of 24/7 prayer and fasting.
Sign up below to reserve a time slot to pray at home or at the location of your choice.
The following articles on Fasting come from IHOP - KC and we recommend each person consulting a physician before fasting.
We will end our 20 days of prayer, fasting and reading the bible on Sunday, January 20, 2019 at 8am.
Thanks for participating in this powerful time and for lending your voice and heart to the dreams and promises God has for us.
Please email us and let us know about your time with Jesus.
