Session 1

His yoke is easy

From 40 Days of Prayer and Fasting Guide

Call to Prayer

Matthew 11 reminds us that those who trust in Jesus find peace and security, regardless of circumstances. Like John the Baptist, we’ve all wondered, “Lord, are you going to do something about this?”

No matter what comes our way, we take heart in knowing the kingdom of God is advancing through Christ. Through Jesus, the Father reveals Himself to us, His children.  

As you read, fast, and pray today, may you find Jesus’ yoke to be easy and His burden to be light. May your relationship grow closer as you get to know Him. And may you experience deep peace and rest for your soul. 

Today’s Scripture 

Matthew 11:1-30
