Fasting

Have you been considering a fast? Let’s look at some examples of fasting in Scripture, the reasons for fasting, and the different types of fasts, along with how to fast and how not to fast.

This plan shares some important information about fasting from a biblical perspective, not a worldly one.

Be sure to be praying about if this is something God is calling you to do.

How to Fast the Biblical Way

In January, we set apart one week of prayer, fasting, and consecration to hear from God and know His direction for us for the year. We claimed God’s amazing grace to rule and reign in our lives throughout that week. Until now, our faith and stance stay the same—humbly asking God to let His amazing grace rule and be seen in our lives.

In 1 Chronicles 29, David describes the greatness and power of God, His grace, and undeserved favor for His people. Together, let's go through David's prayer and experience God's breakthroughs, witness His miracles, and receive His answers to your prayers as we meditate on God, His Word, and His wonderful works through prayer and fasting.
