Written by Welcome to the second half of our 2026 Fasting and Prayer season. We invite you to join us as we continue to seek renewed strength, deeper faith and closer fellowship with God. Today we begin by reflecting on the following;
In what areas of your life do you find it hardest to fully surrender to God?
Main Scriptures (please don’t skip, open your Bible and read them)
Romans 12:1, 1 Peter 1:15-16, Leviticus 20:26
Short Insight
Being set apart for God does not mean withdrawing from life but choosing daily to live differently.
God calls us to be set apart because He Himself is holy. This means God is pure, righteous and completely different from all creation. This does not make Him unrelatable or distant, it simply means God belongs to a different category of being.
In Leviticus 20:26, the Lord declares that He has separated His people to belong to Him. This calling is echoed in 1 Peter 1:15-16, where we are instructed to be holy in all we do, reflecting God’s character in our daily lives, while navigating the journey of sharing the Gospel and the love of Christ. Over these past weeks of fasting, we have been reminded of the importance of living in anticipation of Christ and intentionally sharing His love. As we pursue holiness, we aim to be relatable, yet guided by values that set us apart.
Romans 12:1 shows us how this holiness is lived out—not through rituals alone, but by offering ourselves as living sacrifices and allowing God to renew our minds. When we surrender our thoughts, desires, and actions to God, our lives become an act of worship that is pleasing to Him.
