Devotional

Seeking His Face

David had wealth, power, and influence — yet his deepest desire was simply to be in God's presence. In Psalm 27:4, he wrote: "One thing I have asked of Yahweh, that I will seek after: that I may dwell in Yahweh's house all the days of my life." Fasting refines our priorities. As physical hunger grows, it mirrors the spiritual hunger we should cultivate daily. The emptiness we feel in our bodies becomes a prophetic picture of our need for God — and His faithfulness to fill us. Today, let the hunger you feel point you to the One who satisfies every longing. He is not hiding. He is waiting — and as you seek, you will find. As we continue in week 5 of this journey, let us press deeper into what God is speaking to us. Every day of fasting is a fresh opportunity to encounter His glory and experience His transforming power.
