Proverbs 23:6-8
Meditation
- Do we have the fruit of the arrogant heart like the king of Assyria? Does QHC have haughty looks? What are the things that we relied on our flesh and might to achieve and that we are proud of? Do we see QHC/myself is better? Confess to the Lord and ask for His forgiveness and His help to surrender ourselves to Him in totality. (Isaiah 10:12-14)
- Dear angels of His, we do His word; we heed the voice of His word. Dear ministers of the Lord, we do His pleasure. Abba, give us the word of wisdom and the word of understanding? What is your pleasure – for us, our family, QHC? (Psalm 103:20-22)

Isaiah 12:1-14:32
2 Corinthians 13:1-14
Proverbs 23:9-11
Meditation
- The psalmist painted a picture of our Lord’s greatness, majesty and sovereignty. Isaiah also praises Him. Use Psalm 104 and Isaiah 12 as a guide to praise Him aloud. Use your own words to write this love letter to Abba to praise who He is. PRAISE HIM! PRAISE HIM! PRAISE HIM!
- Abba, how can our life become a song of praise? How does QHC enter into the new season as a body of praise in all circumstances? Cry out and shout, for great is the Holy One of Israel in our midst.

Galatians 1:1-24
Proverbs 23:12
Meditation
- In the Lord’s presence, thirsts are quenched, birds have their homes; the earth is satisfied; everything flourishes. (Psalm 104:10-18) Where are we today in relation to our Lord? Are we fully rejoicing in His sanctuary? Or are our hearts hardened? Ask the Almighty and All-Knowing Father to reveal to us where we are out of alignment and ask Him to bring us back to His mercy seat.
- Praise be to Jesus. No matter how far we/our church/the world have(s) gone astray, through Jesus Christ and God the Father who raised Him from the dead, He can turn it around. (Galatians 1) Through the revelation of Jesus, Saul’s life was transformed by His truth. Abba, we plead for ourselves, our families, our church, our country for Your truth to convict us and turn us around from the course of destruction to the eternal life.

Meditation
Psalms 104:19-30
Isaiah 19:1-21:17
Galatians 2:1-16
Proverbs 23:13-14
Meditation
- In wisdom, He appointed the moon for seasons; the sun knows its going down. In Him, everything is in order; everything has its timing. He gives food in due season. This is who our heavenly Father is. As we only know in part and see in part, we will never be able to comprehend the complete master plan of His. Do we trust in all time that He is always in control and fully knows all the details? Do our actions reflect such faith?
- As the QHC family is fasting and praying, Abba, show us the steps that we need to take going forward. We may have many brilliant ideas, but what is in your plan that is due for QHC in this season? Abba, we need you to show us. Abba, we want to submit to you. Speak to us.

Meditation
Psalms 104:31-35
Isaiah 22:1-24:23
Galatians 2:17-3:9
Proverbs 23:15-16
Meditation
- What is the first picture that comes into your mind when we mention our heavenly Father? Certainly, He is a kind, loving, forgiving and gracious God. We are saved by His grace and not by the law. (Galatians 2:17-3:9) Have we taken advantage of who His gentle and loving side to give ourselves an excuse to dwell in the pattern of sins? Have we downplayed the fact that He is also the God who judges the earth and the people in it when we have broken the everlasting covenant? (Isaiah 24) Do we focus on certain attributes of God while whitewash the others?
- Thank you Lord that you are unfathomable and that there is always more in You. Abba, lead us into a deeper relationship with you so that we know you better minute by minute, day by day. Pray that QHC is a body that preaches the complete gospel.

Meditation
Psalms 105:1-7

Proverbs 23:17-18
Meditation
- “Oh, give thanks to the Lord! Call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples! Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him; Talk of all His wondrous works!” Psalm 105:1-2. The Lord has indeed done wondrous things in our lives. He uses different ways to draw us back to Him. The events may not have been pleasant at the time, but when we look back, we see how His hand has been guiding us through valleys and peaks, desolation and abundance in order for us to declare “[t]he desire of our soul is for Your name and for the remembrance of You.” (Isaiah 26:8). Let us give thanks to Him and reflect on His works and how our lives have been transformed through them.
- Abba, we thank you for bringing us out of darkness into the light. I cannot imagine where I would be if You did not save me. You command us to make known Your deeds among the peoples. Help me, my family and QHC become a channel of blessings by declaring your wondrous works in our community; witnessing your faithfulness that you will never forsake us; and proclaiming the hope of salvation because Christ has redeemed us on the cross.

Meditation
Psalms 105:8-15
Isaiah 28:14-30:11
Galatians 3:23-4:31
Proverbs 23:19-21
Meditation
- As children of God, He has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out “Abba, Father!” (Galatians 4:6) God has extended His everlasting covenant with His unfailing promises to all of His children. (Psalm 105:8) We claim to be His children, have we signed on to His covenant to follow Him in His freedom, or are we still holding on to the covenant that we had made with death (Isaiah 28:15) before receiving the adoption as sons? Are we living in the true freedom under God’s covenant, or are we still in bondage lacking understanding and wisdom that leads to destruction?
- Abba, draw us near so we honor you with our hearts. You are the only one who deserves all the praises and worship. Help us live our days on this earth correspond with the Spirit that you have sent into our hearts. Pray that QHC is a body that is grounded in your truth and led by your Spirit to glorify your name.
Please pray for the future direction of the church, for yourself and your family. Please write down how God has touched you!
