21 Days of Fasting Information

Are you ready?  As a congregation, we will set aside 21 days in the month of January to fast and pray.  By starting each year with a corporate fast, we are sanctifying the remaining eleven months unto the Lord as a "first fruit."

Fasting is a principle that God intended for everyone to be able to enjoy.  It's not a punishment; it's a privilege!  Fasting will draw you closer to God and help you grow spiritually.  Fasting is also one of the most powerful weapons God has given us for our daily lives.

As a congregation, we are fasting and praying for a release from the bondage of sin; restoration in our relationships; financial blessings; spiritual renewal and supernatural healing!

We want to encourage you today to fast for your future and your family.  What do you envision yourself doing for God?  As you fast, pray for God's direction and guidance.  See the dream by faith and trust the Lord to show you how you can turn your vision into a reality.

The hour in which we live is perilous.  There are many people experiencing hardship and wrestling with despair.  As we come together to fast and pray, we are believing that burdens will be lifted and blessings will be released!

We have included a fasting and prayer calendar as well as a quick tips for fasting guide.  Please print out your copies and begin this journey with us on Wednesday, January 11, 2012.


We would also like to encourage you to pick up “The Fasting Edge” book by Pastor Jentezen Franklin.


Also, during the fast, we’ll be sharing daily devotions on my blog at www.russellhylton.com.
