40 Days of Prayer and Fasting - Day 14
Day 14 – Tuesday September 26th
“Even now,” declares the Lord,
“return to me with all your heart,
with fasting and weeping and mourning.”
-Joel 2:12
The prophet Joel spoke at a time when the people of God were straying. Through the prophet God had told the people of their transgressions, but he had not closed the door on relationship with them. Even now, he says, even now it is not too late. Even now, if you turn, I will welcome you with open arms. In this Old Testament verse we have the heart of the prodigal’s father on display. God the father still calls us to REturn with all of our heart. Pray that the Holy Spirit will use this time to draw people back to God. Pray that people will REspond to God’s call.
