5: Action | 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting 2025

Day 5: Action
How’s your fast going so far? I hope it’s been a time of growth and deepening connection with God.
Today, I want to challenge you to take your fast a step further: use the time you’d typically spend on what you’re fasting from to serve someone today. It could be something as simple as offering a listening ear to someone who needs it or performing a small act of kindness to brighten someone’s day.
Fasting isn’t just about giving something up; it’s about making space for God to move, both in your heart and through your actions. So, as you continue to fast, let that space translate into action that serves others and reflects Christ’s love.
Reflection Questions:
- What’s one small act of service I can offer today that would make a difference for someone else?
- How can I be intentional about using my time away from distractions to bless others and serve with a heart like Jesus?
Prayer
Jesus, help me make today about more than what I'm fasting from, but help me make it about what or who you're leading me toward.
