Prayer & fasting

KICK OFF 2023 WITH 21 DAYS OF FASTING & PRAYER

MONDAY, JANUARY 9TH THRU MONDAY, JANUARY 30TH‍
‍
The goal of fasting is to draw nearer to Jesus as you focus on prayer, study, and growth. Our hope for you is that you would experience God in a new and fresh way as you seek him this new year. Fasting is simply withstanding from something in order to focus our attention and efforts towards Jesus.

When we partner this with prayer, we are able to see God do the miraculous! We're believing Him to strengthen you, answer your prayers. and bring breakthrough on this journey!

(Biblical References: Daniel 10:1-3, Exodus 34:28, Nehemiah 1:4)

TYPES OF FASTS

1. COMPLETE FAST
This fast calls for drinking only liquids, typically water with light juices as an option.
‍
2. SELECTIVE FAST
Removing only certain elements from your diet. One example being the Daniel Fast, during which you remove meat, sweets, or bread from your diet and consume water and juice for fluids and fruits and vegetables for food.
‍
3. PARTIAL FAST
Sometimes called the “Jewish Fast,” it involves abstaining from eating any type of food in the morning and afternoon. Whether it’s fasting 6:00 am to 3:00 pm, or from sunup to sundown.
‍
4. SOUL FAST
Best for those who do not have much experience fasting food, who have health issues that prevent them from fasting, or who wish to refocus certain areas of their life. For instance, abstaining from using social media or television for the duration of the fast.
