God has called on His people to seek Him whole-heartedly; he will be found. Thanks to the brothers and sisters for joining us on the Church's Day of Prayer on Feb 27. Starting from Feb 28, we will continue to seek after God for the following five weeks, not only for His vision for ECCC but also for rebuilding our personal and Church prayer culture; learning to use our knees to walk closely to follow the Lord's lead and helping our Church becomes a temple of prayer for all people. From Feb 28 to Apr 3, we will post scriptures for you to pray using the Word of God and each week, we have a theme: the first week is humility, the second week is seeking, the third week is repentance, the fourth week is forgiveness, and the fifth week is healing. We also encouraged you to fast from 12-6 pm every Sunday during these five weeks (or to "fast" from things that can easily distract you) and celebrate together the Lord's resurrection that gives us hope of new life on The Resurrection Sunday.
Theme of the week is "Humility", scripture as below:
Sunday: Zephaniah 2:3
Seek the Lord, all you humble of the land, who do his just commands; seek righteousness; seek humility; perhaps you may be hidden on the day of the anger of the Lord.
Monday: Proverbs 18:12
Before destruction a man's heart is haughty, but humility comes before honor.
Tuesday: Isaiah 57:15
For thus says the One who is high and lifted up, who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy place, and also with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly, and to revive the heart of the contrite.
Wednesday: Proverbs 18:12
Before destruction a man's heart is haughty, but humility comes before honor.
Thursday: 1 Peter 5:5-6
Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you
Friday: Matthew 11:29-30
Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Saturday: Philippians 2:3-4
Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.
