JANUARY 13 - 26
MORNING PRAYER
Monday-friday
6AM - 7AM
Nothing of eternal significance happens apart from prayer. It is prayer that connects our heart to the heart of God and moves His hand in our lives. Throughout Scripture, we often see prayer and fasting together as a way of drawing even closer to God. Over the next 14 days, through prayer and fasting, we will intentionally seek God first, trusting in His power alone to create lasting impact in our lives, our church, and our world.

Fasting
The goal of fasting is to draw nearer to God. Biblical fasting always has to do with eliminating distractions for a spiritual purpose; it hits the reset button of our soul and renews us from the inside out. It also enables us to celebrate the goodness and mercy of God and prepares our hearts for all the good things God desires to bring into our lives. Remember, your personal fast should present a level of challenge, but it is very important to know your body, your options, and, most importantly, to seek God in prayer and follow what the Holy Spirit leads you to do.
TYPES OF FAST
Your personal fast should present a level of challenge, but it is very important to know your body, your options, and most importantly, to seek God in prayer and follow what the Holy Spirit leads you to do.
Liquid fast
In this type of fast, you drink only liquids, typically water with light juices as an option.
Selective fast
This type of fast involves removing certain elements from your diet. One example of a selective fast is the Daniel Fast, during which you remove meat, sweets, and bread from your diet and consume water and juice for fluids and fruits and vegetables for food.
PARTIAL FAST
The goal of your group experience is to develop relationships while also growing spiritually. This fast is sometimes called the “Jewish Fast” and involves abstaining from eating any type of food in the morning and afternoon. This can either correlate to specific times of the day, such as 6:00 am to 3:00 pm, or from sunup to sundown.
