Father, I quiet my heart before You. I invite Your presence into this fast and I ask You to lead me by Your Spirit. Reveal what needs healing and bring it into Your light. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Main prayer
Father, You are the God who sees me. You know my story and You understand my pain. Today I ask You to reveal what needs healing at the root. Heal the brokenhearted parts of me and bind up my wounds. Replace shame with truth and fear with peace. Restore my identity, my confidence, and my hope. I trust Your process and I receive Your love. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Father, thank You for meeting me today. Help me steward what You revealed and obey what You are asking of me. Seal the work You started and let Your peace remain with me. In Jesus’ name, amen.
