Come Join Us For A Fast:

Sunday Jan 19th thru Sunday Jan 26th 2025!

2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 

I think sometimes we don’t fully understand completely all the tools the Lord has given us as Christians to be effective in this world for His Kingdom. Fasting is one of those powerful tools! Listen to the video (below) and be encouraged to come and fast with us! You won’t regret it! After watching our video I would encourage you to check out the other videos below by Derek Prince to get some detailed incite on Fasting.

THINGS TO PRAY:

1) Pray For Your Church: The church is going through a cleansing right now and many challenges as it navigates God’s will. Pray that the Lord prepares His Church to be white without spot or wrinkle when she is presented to Jesus when He comes. (Rev 19:7-9, Eph 5:27, Rev 21:2, Rev 19:7-8)

Pray for God’s will for your church in 2025. That He will fill it with the Holy Spirit and the Lord’s will, not man’s will. For favor as they reach out in their communities and disciple those coming through the church doors.

2) Pray For Our Families who are constantly under attack. Satan is doing everything he can to try to take away our identity, bring confusion, and rip apart the family unit.

3) Pray For Our Government. Pray for local, state and federal government. The enemy is trying to destroy our country with sin, godlessness and destruction. Pray that those who have been elected will be protected and will fear God and work to turn this nation around. Pray for their safety and no obstructions!

4) Pray For Revival. We want to see the Holy Spirit come in His mighty power in 2025 to heal, save, deliver and set on fire everyone He touches. Discipling the Nations!

HERE ARE SOME PRACTICAL TIPS WHEN YOU ARE FASTING (Especially a water fast):

1) Drink plenty of water!

2) Understand that your body may go through the following symptoms: You may feel nauseous, get headaches, feel really tired at times, feel a little light headed etc. Just know that these are usually typical symptoms. Your body is going through a cleanse and when you get these symptoms they are times the body is flushing out all the accumulated toxins in your organs and cells. The more toxins you have built up in your body the more symptoms you may have.

During those times you need to drink more water which will help the body to eliminate the waste. And if you can you may need to rest for a bit.

You will notice after a few days that hunger will subside and even though you may have some symptoms of toxin removal, you will find that you have great insight and a natural high that is hard to explain unless you have fasted before. You may find that the Lord speaks to you clearly as never before.

But even if you don’t hear anything from the Lord in your fast just know that it was not a waste of time. The Lord will be doing something in you and thru you whether it is now or in the future. The groundwork is being laid.

3) Understand that if you don’t fast much the first couple of days can be difficult with body symptoms or constant temptations to eat food. This is so understandable! Try at those times to get distractions: Read your bible, pray, watch a sermon, go for a walk etc.

4) For the times you usually eat, take those times to now spend some serious time in your Bible and talking to God. Remember to worship Him, thank Him, praise Him during your fast.

5) Should you take medications on your fast?: If you have a particular disease or are on medications it is up to you, God and your Doctor to determine whether you should continue them during your fast.

BREAKING THE FAST:

This part is so important! No matter when the Lord and you decide to break your fast, do not jump into eating a big heavy meal! It is important to start your eating with small light meals slowly. You will end up with some serious stomach aches if you don’t.

A good start would be to introduce back into fruits, vegetables, salads and soups first. Then you can gradually increase over the next few days.

AFTER YOUR FAST: Journal what the Lord showed you or what happened during your fast and share that with other Christians

YOU WILL BE CHANGED WHETHER YOU EVER FEEL IT OR NOT!
