💙 Grateful for Our Family Day 2026 | Palarong Pinoy 🇵🇭
“Let us consider one another to stir up love and good works.” – Hebrews 10:24–25

Our hearts are full after a beautiful and joyful Family Day spent playing, laughing, and growing together as one family in Christ. From the games to the fellowship, we truly saw Hebrews 10:24–25 lived out—encouraging one another, building community, and choosing to show love in practical ways.

Thank you to everyone who came, played, cheered, cooked, organized, and served behind the scenes. This day reminded us that church is not just a place we go to—but a family we belong to.

To God be all the glory for the unity, joy, and memories made.
Until the next gathering—let’s keep stirring one another toward love and good works. 🤍

🌿 Day 7 – Final Day of Prayer & Fasting | January 18, 2026
Theme: Following Jesus

As we conclude our week of prayer and fasting, we are called to abide in Christ—to follow Him daily, bear fruit, and remain rooted in His Word. Let us commit not only to a week, but to a life of obedience, prayer, and discipleship.

📖 John 15:1–8

May the hunger stirred in us during these days continue beyond this week, shaping how we walk, pray, and follow Jesus every day.

Following Jesus

Bible Verse:
John 15:1-8 “I am the true vine, and my father is the vinedresser. Every branch in me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.”

Prayer Guide: • Disciple in the Word – Proverbs 2:1-9; John 8:31; 1 Peter 2:2; Hosea 4:6; Acts 17:11; 2 Timothy 2:15; Proverbs 2:3-4; Psalm 19:7-11; Deuteronomy 11:18-20; Colossians 3:16; Psalm 119:11;
2 Timothy 3:16

Everything we need to know about God and things that are desirable to man is taught in the Bible. Success or failure of Christian life depends on how much of God’s Word we get into our hearts and minds on a regular basis and how obedient we are to it. Help us not to neglect the
study of Scripture, give us that spiritual hunger and appetite for the truth.

Let us not see reading God’s Word as a duty or an obligation. Help us to read the Bible intelligently and pray for Spiritual discernment to understand what is being said in the context. Help us to stop, think and
meditate on what the Lord is showing us. Pray that we should not just be hearer of God’s Word but ask God to make us understand and show us how these truths apply in our lives. Help us to use our Bible to affect the way that we live, knowing the true and rejecting the false, and to use our Bible as our training manual to our children.

Help us to treasure His Word and not take it for granted. Help us to commit Scripture to memory, once it is ingrained in our memory it will
always be there to use and will bring us comfort, courage, strength, and confidence in our hearts to face trials that may lay ahead and the needed strength in a time of intense temptation. Help us to put ourselves under the authority of God’s Word and submit to its teaching that we become disciples in the Word.

• Disciple in Prayer – Matthew 6:5-13; Job 9:33; 1 Timothy 2:5; Hebrew 7:25; James 4:3; 1 John 5:14-15; Romans 10:17; 2 Peter 3:9; 2 Chronicles 7:14; Lamentations 3:22-23; 1 Thessalonians 5:17

For a believer, prayer is essential in our Christian life, and it is the key to having passion and power in our witness. Ask God to remove any Spiritual pride, God won’t hear the prayer of a pride-filled person. Help us to make our prayer to come from our heart and simply laid it out
before the Lord. Help us to understand that God knows our needs before we ask. Help us to be reminded that our prayer is not informing or instructing God, nor bending the will of God, but it’s getting God’s will on earth. Help us to be assured that whatever happen as a result, our prayer is in accordance with what our Father wants for us and be reminded that he loves us with an everlasting love and His will for us is the best.

Stir up a hunger in our heart to spend time in the Word of God and learn the will and desires of God so our prayers will no longer be self-centered but will be oriented toward the Glory and will of God. Give us confidence to see that the scripture clearly mandates many things that are the will of God, so that we can pray believing this is what God wants to do as we have seen it proclaimed in the Scripture.

Help us to pray with a compassionate heart to extend your grace in praying for others and to pray without ceasing. Help us to recognize as a disciple in prayer the need for confession of sin, because scripture say that unconfessed sin will hinder our prayer.

• Discipling of Others – Matthew28:18-20; 2 Corinthians 3:4-6; Acts 4:23-31; Acts 1:8; Luke 14:34; 2 Timothy 2:24-25; Matthew 10:16; 2 Timothy 4:2; Acts 8:26-40; 1 Corinthians 9:20-23

As a disciple of Jesus Christ, we are to be “salt” in this earth, we are valuable (In Roman culture, salt was very important) and better yet, we may play an important role in the change of someone’s eternal destiny.

Help us to live a godly life, that can stimulate a spiritual thirst in the
lives of others to do likewise. Help us to live a life being directed and under the power of the Holy Spirit so that the characteristics of the Holy Spirit will manifest in us that nonbelievers find very appealing.

Help us to influence nonbelievers with our Christian face when we still maintain a sense of calmness and peace even under severe circumstances. Give us the wisdom to be “wise as serpents and harmless as doves” to not to be overly aggressive and use pressure,
arguments, and coercion to get a person to come into the Kingdom of God.

Help us to understand that our responsibility as Christians is to proclaim the truth of the Gospel and leave the converting up to God. Help us to let our “light” to shine before men, talking the Christian
talk and live it. Help us to always be ready and not to miss out on opportunities and on privileges of being used by the Lord. Help us to share our faith with others on a regular basis.

Help us to make a genuine concern for the lost. Help us to be flexible to adapt ourselves to other people, we need to be sensitive and responsible to the people to whom we are speaking to say the right thing at the right time. Jesus truly loved people, help us to have the same love as Jesus, another aspect of effective discipling is our heartfelt concern that involves our heart.

🌍 Day 6– Prayer & Fasting | January 17, 2026
Theme: Sharing Jesus with Others

Today we are called to share the hope we have in Christ. As we pray and fast, let us ask God for boldness, wisdom, and compassion to speak the Gospel with gentleness and respect, trusting the Holy Spirit to work through us.

📖 Romans 10:14–15 | 1 Peter 3:15

Let us be attentive to the leading of the Holy Spirit and willing to be sent—bringing the good news of Jesus to those around us.

Bible Verses: Romans 10:14-15 “How then shall they call on Him whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: ‘How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Gospel of peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!’”

1 Peter 3:15 (NIV) “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the Hope that you have. But do these with gentleness and respect.”

Recommended Reading: Mark 16:15; Matthew 28:19-20; 2 Corinthians 3:2; 1 Peter 2:9; Matthew 5:16; 2 Timothy 4:5; Hebrews 4:12; Isaiah 55:11; James 5:16; Matthew 17:21; 1 Corinthians 2:1-2; Mark 10:29-30; Romans 1:16; Acts 1:8; Luke 11:9-13; 1 John 4:18; Romans 9:9,13

Prayer Guide:

Ask God specifically for the infilling of the Holy Spirit to overflow us and to control us. Just like Peter who was tongue tied on the night Jesus was betrayed but on the day of Pentecost (Acts 1 &2) Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the Word with boldness.
Help us not to remain silent but be obedient to Your command you gave us of sharing the good news of Jesus Christ with others.

May we develop a burden for the lost and let’s put in our mind
that Jesus died for them too. That we should care for them and have the desire, love, and passion to lead them to the Lord. Help us to pray for people in our life whom the Holy Spirit is giving to us; to help them come to know Jesus Christ, they may be our classmates, co-workers,
relatives, neighbors, or people we just met and see. Help us to be open and pay attention to the prompting of the Holy Spirit on when to develop a relationship with them who are unsaved, so we could pray and share Jesus Christ and His Word to them.

May we continue to read the Bible, memorize some verses, and do our Scripture meditations as a way of filling our minds with the Word of God all the time. In that way, we can unloose our tongue and will have boldness to speak up whenever the Holy Spirit is prompting us to share the Word and Jesus Christ.

May we always be in prayer to see people around us who need to come to faith and open their doors to God’s work in their life. Help us to be Spirit-filled, mature Christ-like believers to have the passion to seek and save the lost, to be able to fulfill our great commission, that is evangelism.

01/16/2026

💝 Day 5 – Prayer & Fasting | January 16, 2026
Theme: Cheerful Giver

Today we are reminded that giving is an act of worship and trust in God. As we continue our prayer and fasting, let us give with joyful and willing hearts, knowing that God is our provider and He supplies all that we need.

📖 2 Corinthians 9:6–8

May our giving—of time, resources, and love—flow from gratitude and obedience, bringing glory to God and blessing to others.

Cheerful Giver

Bible Verse:
2 Corinthians 9:6-8 “But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly,
and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. So let each one give as he purposes in his
heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all
grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an
abundance in every good work.

Recommended Reading:

• Tithes – Hebrew 7:1-2; Malachi 3:10-11; Proverbs 3:9-10;
Leviticus 27:30

• Offering, Giving, Sacrifice – Matthew 23:23; Numbers 18:25-28; Deuteronomy 14:22-24; 2 Chronicles 31:5-6, 2 Corinthians 9:6-10; Acts 20:35; Luke 6:38; Matthew 6:33-34; 1 Corinthians 16:1-2; 1 Kings 24:24; Matthew 6:21; Hebrews 13:16

• Stewardship: - 1 Chronicles 29:14; Deuteronomy 8:18; 1 Peter 4:10; Matthew 25:14-30; Matthew 6:19-21; 1 Timothy 6:17-19

Prayer Guide: May our giving be that which is coming from our hearts, as an expression of our love and gratitude for God, because we acknowledge that everything we have comes from God and will use them to glorify Him. Help us to be a good steward to manage our resources well.

Help us to encourage others to decide to give to God. To bring to God what’s already His. We know that the 10% of our income is not for us, it belongs to God. We believe that God is honouring our tithes, He is moving on our behalf. God makes an incredible promise to those who
give to His work, the Bible says, God will open for us the windows of heaven and pour for us such blessing that there will be no room enough to receive it, and He rebuke the devourers in our life.

Help us to move further with God to go above tithing, into an offering, above giving into sooner or later to make a sacrifice, supporting a vision or special projects, or a place where God has His stamp of approval, or a ministry that is honored by the Holy Spirit at least once a year or
once in two years as the Lord leads. A sacrifice that could bring the fire of God into our life and bring a change into our life and take us to another level of stewardship as relates to our fund. Time and again, the Bible associates our money with our commitment and relationship to the Lord. Let the Lord touch those who are not tithers or givers to decide to start tithing and as the Holy Spirit leads even to begin to desire to make sacrifices and live to be rich spiritually and to be rich eternally, not just to be rich. The Bible tells us “But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased”
- Hebrews 13:16.
May God give us the grace to grasp what the Bible is saying about giving and make us to say, “we cannot afford not to give.”

👀 Day 4 – Prayer & Fasting | January 15, 2026
Theme: Pay Attention

Today we are reminded that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but spiritual. As we continue to pray and fast, let us stay alert, discerning, and focused—placing the battle in the hands of the One who has already won.

Let us be intentional in prayer today—guarding our hearts, sharpening our discernment, and standing firm in unity as we press on together. 🙏

Pay Attention

Bible Verse:
Ephesians 6:12 “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of darkness of this age, against spiritual host of wickedness in the heavenly places.”

Prayer Guide:
Lord give us a prayer which reaches into spiritual realm and places the battle into the hands of the “One” who has already won the battle. May you increase our discerning of spirits that we should be alert and prayerful, paying attention to when the enemy is behind the attack. Help us not to waste time fighting against people, ourselves, but help us to realize that we are fighting against the enemy itself. Help us to pray on the following core areas of attack by the enemy.

• Our Passion – Colossians 3:22; Galatians 5:24; Romans 12:11; Psalm 84:2; Psalm 63:1
Help us not to dim our passion for the things of God, not to give up our interest in spiritual things, not to lessen our belief in God’s ability and his personal concern for us, and we should never be convinced that the hope we have lost is never coming back. Help us to pay attention and be prayerful, when the enemy is attacking our passion, like when we are cutting short our time with God and started to feel distracted and off-guard, finding pleasure elsewhere and our desire to spend time to God start to die.

• Our Focus – Colossians 3:2; Philippians 4:8; Matthew 6:33; Proverbs 4:25; Hebrews 12:2; Philippians 3:13-14.
Help us not to be deceived by the enemy by attacking our focus by means of disguising himself and manipulating our perspective so that we focus on the wrong culprit i.e. our spouse, children, friend, co-worker, our hurt, our finances, anyone or anything except the enemy. Help us not to focus on flesh and blood that wear us down, weakened our witness that hinder our prayer life and our relationship with God. Help us to be alert, discerning and prayerful to be aware of the devil’s scheme.

• Our Identity – Genesis 1:27; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Ephesians 2:10,19; 1 Peter 2:9; John 1:12; Psalm 139:13-14; Jeremiah 29:11; Galatians 2:20; 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Let not the enemy devalue our strength and magnify our insecurities by dominating us on how we see ourselves, disabling and disarming us from fighting back from being free, from being who God has created us to be. Help us not to doubt the power of God within us and what God has given us. Help us to know our place as a child of God when we start to experience insecurity, inferiority, comparing ourselves to others, when we start to identify our worth in what we do, and not who we are as a child of God. Help us to realize that our worth is not in our performance but literally in our positioning in Jesus Christ.

• Our Family – Matthew 10:34-36; Proverbs 15:1; James 1:19; Ephesians 4:31-32; 6:1-3
Protection for our family from the works and attacks of the enemy who seek to disintegrate and destroy every member of it. Let not the enemy tear away trust and unity and turn anyone’s love inward on themselves (selfishness). Let no family experience division and offense to rise due to petty arguments in each member of the family. Let there be unity in every family. Satan knows that there is power where there is unity.

• Our Past – Isaiah 43:18-19; Philippians 3:13-14; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Hebrews 10:17; Psalm 103:12
Don’t let the enemy to constantly remind you of your past mistakes or poor choices, to keep you burdened by shame and guilt that you feel you failed, and you’ve had your chance and you’ve blown it, and see no point of even trying again. Help us not to feel condemned to the point where we feel we cannot come to God. Give us courage to confess our sins and pray for cleansing and repent so we will be forgiven and stand in the liberty and freedom God has given us.

• Our Fears – 1 Peter 5:7; Psalm 55:2; 1John 4:18; Isaiah 41:10
Help us not to let our fears be magnified making them appear to be too great to overcome. We pray for sound mind, free of anxiety that paralyze us leaving us indecisive, clinging to safety and always on the defensive on what might happen. May You remove worry that make us to feel overly worried and anxious, not receiving peace. Help us to use our authority to cast down the spirit of fear, worries, cares, anxieties and put our trust only in You.

• Our Purity – Romans 12:2; Psalm 51:10-12; Psalm 119:9-11; Philippians 4:8; Matthew 5:8
Let God protect our mind that no dark thoughts take root in them. That we continue yielding to the power and self-control that the Holy Spirit has given us. Let the Holy Spirit shield our body, mind, and spirit when the enemy is attacking our purity, attacking with fornication, drunkenness, adultery, and anything that will lead us to sexual immorality, or some type of impurity that compromise our morals. Let God create in us a clean heart and renew a right spirit within us and give us a pure heart that hides His Word so we will not sin against God.

• Our Pressures – Philippians 4:6-7; Isaiah 40:31; Matthew 6;34; Proverbs 3:5-6; Psalm 55:2; 2 Corinthians 12:9
Help us not to get caught up with our duties, busyness, and pressures that demand most of our time to the point that we are already side tracked to what we are supposed to be doing i.e. living a life devoted to God and living a life that serves as a positive example to others. Let not the enemy be wearing us down when we get to the time that we become so busy and cannot hear the voice of God. Help us to be intentional in doing the things of God and ask God’s help for us to realize what is a priority and what is not.

• Our Hurts – Romans 12:2; Ephesians 4:32; Psalm 34:18; 2 Corinthians 1:3-4; Colossians 3:13
Help us not to bring old wounds to us, as well as the people, events, and circumstances that caused our hurts. Don’t let the enemy put us in bo***ge of unforgiveness that negatively affects our prayer. We pray for the renewing of our minds.

• Our Relationships – John 13:34; Proverbs 27:17; 1 John 4:7; Ephesians 4:2-3; Proverbs 27:17; 1 Peter 4:8; Colossians 3:13; 1 Thessalonians 5:11
Help us to preserve every relationship that we have in the Body of Christ because God want to bless us even through people. Help us to be sensitive and pray when we start seeing discord, slander, and gossip among the Body of Christ and help us not to entertain those things. Help us to be in prayer about those things and do not be part of the problem.
