For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland. Isaiah 43:19

Prayer and Fasting
January 1–31

As a church, we believe starting off the new year with prayer and fasting is a way we can come together in unity as a congregation and dedicate our time to the Lord! Spending time in prayer or fasting are practical ways you can set aside distractions and invite God into 2025. 

Visit gatewaypeople.com/prayer to find resources on prayer or if you’d like someone to agree with you in prayer leading into the new year. Check your campus events page to see if they are hosting a special opportunity to join together in prayer with your church family.

If you’re considering fasting at the beginning of the year, read “You Might Be Fasting 
If …” for some fun encouragement! Participating in a fast is an outward demonstration of giving something up—food,* technology, or an activity—and replacing it with time dedicated to the Lord. This discipline gives the Lord space to take the place of something else we frequently engage with. Prepare your heart to receive whatever God may want to speak to you during your fast; when we silence distractions, we are able to hear His voice more clearly.

*If you plan to fast from food for any length of time, we encourage you to consult with your doctor.

Gateway Devotional
Let’s dive into God’s Word this new year with a Gateway devotional written for you by pastors and leaders across the Gateway family.

Gateway’s 2025 devotional, This Is the Way, will be available online at gatewaydevotions.com.
