Theme: Walking in the fullness of joy that comes from the Lord.
Opening Prayer:
“Lord, I thank You for the joy that comes from Your presence. Today, I receive Your fullness of joy, and I declare that nothing will steal my joy. Holy Spirit, fill me with Your peace.”
Devotional Thought:
"God’s plan is for us to walk in joy, not just happiness that depends on circumstances, but deep, lasting joy. Psalm 30 reminds us that weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. Hannah’s story in 1 Samuel 1 shows us that waiting seasons lead to testimonies. As we conclude this fast, walk with confidence that your joy is full in Christ."
Scripture:
Psalm 30 – Joy comes in the morning.
Isaiah 2 – The mountain of the Lord will be established.
1 Samuel 1:1-20 – Hannah’s sorrow turns into joy.
Luke 15 – The joy of restoration in the parables of the lost sheep, coin, and son.
Activity:
Write a gratitude list, reflecting on how God has been faithful during this fast.
Reflection Prompt:
What has God done in your life during this fast that has increased your joy?
How can you maintain joy even in difficult situations?

Guided Visualization:
Close your eyes and picture yourself standing under a waterfall of joy. Feel God’s presence washing over you, refreshing you with lasting peace.
Journal Prompt:
Write a declaration of joy over your life and future.
Declaration:
“My joy is full! Nothing will steal my joy because it comes from the Lord.”
Worship Suggestion:
