Today is **Day 4** of the RCCG 30 Days Fasting and Prayers programme for 2026, themed **”Brand New Beginning”** (as declared by Pastor E.A. Adeboye). The fast runs from February 1 to March 2, 2026, focusing on spiritual renewal, repentance, breakthroughs, and divine remembrance.
The prayer focus for **Day 4 – Wednesday, February 4, 2026** is: **Brand New Beginning of Genuine Repentance for Sin**.
This aligns perfectly with seeking God’s mercy, turning from sin, and embracing fresh starts in righteousness.
### Key Scriptures
– **2 Chronicles 7:14** – “If my people… shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven…”
– **Isaiah 1:18** – “Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow…”
– **Psalm 51:10** – “Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.”
### Fasting Prayers for Day 4 (Genuine Repentance)
Pray these fervently during your fasting period:
1. Father, I worship You as the holy and merciful God who forgives sins and cleanses from all unrighteousness. Thank You for the gift of repentance in Jesus’ name.
2. Lord, search my heart and reveal any hidden sins, pride, unforgiveness, or worldly attachments. Expose them by Your Spirit in Jesus’ name.
3. Father, grant me genuine sorrow for my sins—not worldly regret, but godly repentance that leads to salvation and no regret (2 Corinthians 7:10). Help me turn away completely from every known sin.
4. By the blood of Jesus, wash me thoroughly from my iniquities and cleanse me from my sins. Let Your mercy speak louder than any accusation against me in Jesus’ name.
5. O God, create in me a clean heart and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Remove every heart of stone and give me a heart of flesh that delights in Your law.
6. Father, break every chain of habitual sin in my life—addictions, anger, lust, lies, or bitterness. Let this fast mark a brand new beginning of freedom and holiness.
7. Lord, forgive the sins of my family, my nation (Nigeria), and the Church. Raise a generation that walks in genuine repentance and revival in Jesus’ name.
8. I decree: Every demonic hold through past sins is broken today. No more condemnation— I am free and forgiven in Christ!
### Powerful Declarations for Day 4
Declare these boldly (repeat 7–10 times each):
– This 2026 is my year of **brand new beginning**—old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new in Jesus’ name!
– I repent genuinely today; God remembers my sins no more. My slate is wiped clean by the blood of Jesus!

– Doors of divine favor, restoration, and acceleration open wide because of my repentance and humility.
– My family experiences salvation, unity, and turnaround as a result of this season of genuine repentance.

### Practical Fasting Tips (Especially to Manage or Reduce Farting/Gas)
Fasting can sometimes cause digestive changes like bloating or gas due to reduced food intake, shifts in gut bacteria, or dehydration. Here are helpful tips to minimize discomfort while staying committed:
– **Stay hydrated**: Drink plenty of water (warm water with lemon if allowed in your fast type) throughout the day. Dehydration worsens gas.
– **Break fast wisely**: When breaking at 6 PM (standard RCCG daily fast), start with light, easily digestible foods like fruits (bananas, papaya), boiled plantains, vegetable soup, or pap. Avoid heavy, oily, or beans-heavy meals initially, as they increase gas.
– **Incorporate gentle foods**: Opt for ginger tea, peppermint, or fennel (if your fast permits herbal infusions) to soothe digestion and reduce bloating.
– **Avoid gulping air**: Eat/sip slowly, avoid carbonated drinks, and chew thoroughly when breaking fast.
– **Light activity**: Gentle walking after breaking fast helps move gas through the system.
– **Pray through discomfort**: Use any bloating as a reminder to press into prayer—turn physical hunger/gas into spiritual hunger for God.
– **If health issues**: Consult your doctor or church leader if you have conditions like ulcers; RCCG allows modified fasts (e.g., Daniel fast with fruits/veggies).
Stay strong in the Spirit! May this Day 4 bring deep repentance, fresh fire, and tangible new beginnings in every area of your life. Keep pressing on—your breakthrough is near! 🔥🙏
