ThepracticeofregularfastingisanormalChristianbehaviourtaughtbyJesus.InMatthew 6:16–18, Jesus provided guidelines for fasting. Fasting was alsopracticedbytheearlychurchasevidencedinActs13:2.Ithasbeentheregulardisciplineofbelieversthroughoutchurchhistory.

Fastinghasphysicalaswell as spiritualbenefits. Itmustbe embarkedonwithspiritualcommitmentandwisdom.EverythingshouldbedonetothegloryofGod.

HELPFULHINTSFASTINGFOR

1. Avoid high-fat and sugary foods before the fast.

3. It is important after a fast to control your cravings and avoid overeating and nullifying the gains made during the fast.

7. Take time to pray and read the word. This may seem obvious, but busyness and distractions can keep you from daily devotions. Expect to hear God's voice in the word, dreams, visions, and revelations. Daniel prepared himself to receive revelation through fasting (Daniel10:1–2).

Don'tsOfFasting

2. Prevent constipation during and after the fast by eating fresh fruit and raw vegetables, fruit or vegetable juices, oatmeal, etc.

4. Seek medical advice before the fast if you have any existing health conditions.

Do'sOfFasting

5. You can fast in many different ways. For example, a Daniel fast is one in which you consume only vegetables and water throughout. Pray and ask God what He will give you faith for the duration of the fast.

1. Prepare your body for the fast; cut back on food portions and eat smaller meals a few days prior to the fast.

9. Prepare for opposition. Satan tempted Jesus on the fast, and we must expect the same. Discouragement may come but take your stand on the victory of Christ.

6. Have a clear target as your prayer focus. Without a vision or clear goal, the people perish. Write down your vision for the fast so you can run with it (Habakkuk2:2).

2. Abstain from strong stimulants such as caffeinated and sugary drinks during a fast, including the artificial sweeteners found in diet drinks.

3. Drink lots of water when fasting.

8. Break your fast gradually. At this point you will need to exercise watchful self-control. Break your fast on a meal that is light and easy to digest (i.e., broth, a shredded apple, watermelon, or steamed vegetables).

Iamexcitedthatyouarejoiningmeonthisfast.Committostayingthecourseand fasting from thebeginning to the end. I believe thatGod'sglory will envelope our nation in a supernatural way as we waitupontheLord.

And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You,commandme to come toYouon thewater.” SoHe said,“Come.”AndwhenPeterhadcomedownoutoftheboat,hewalkedonthewatertogotoJesus.(Matthew14:28-29)

(5am-11am)MorningReflection Matthew14:22-33 Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other

side, while He sent the multitudes away. And when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. Now when evening came, He was alone there. But the boat was now in the middle of the sea, tossed by the waves, for the wind was contrary. Now in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea. And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It is a ghost!” And they cried out for fear. But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid.” And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.” So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!” And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. Then those who were in the boat came and worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God.”
