"All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth unto such as keep His covenant and His testimonies" - Psalm 25:10
Beloved brothers and sisters, this Wednesday, March 5, 2025, marks the beginning of Lent, a period that precedes Easter. Right after Jesus was baptized, the Spirit of God descended and rested on Him. This encounter empowered Jesus for the days that followed as He was led into the wilderness for 40 days of prayer and fasting (Matthew 4:1-11).
These 40 days are observed all over the world by many Christians during what we call Lent. The 40 days prelude Easter. Lent provides us with the time to focus on what matters the most- a deeper relationship with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, that releases the power of God through intentional times of prayer, fasting, and worship.
Lent which runs till April 17, 2025, also gives followers of Christ the opportunity to join hearts with other believers globally to cover the 10/40 Window in prayer. This specific area of the world has the largest unreached people groups. Our understanding as followers of Christ on this specific area of the world is paramount to an effective prayer according to James 5:16b.
We encourage followers of Christ to commit to praying for one of the 10/40 Window nations during these 40 days of Lent, our God will hear and release an avalanche of His love and power to save, deliver and heal His people.
As we walk through Lent, let us turn our eyes upon Jesus and look full into His wonderful face. We will find that the angst of this world will grow strangely dim, and the light of God’s glory and grace will be multiplied upon our lives. With that fullest of God’s light in us, we will welcome Easter on April 20, 2025 with the resurrection power that breathes new life to all things.
In Christ's Love,
