WHY WE FAST

“Fasting helps us to express, to deepen, and to confirm the resolution that we are ready to sacrifice anything, even ourselves, to attain the Kingdom of God.” — Andrew Murray

Fasting is the act of choosing to abstain from food for a period of time. When we fast, we are practicing spiritual discipline by sacrificing one of our most essential daily routines. There is power in the absence of food as we hunger after the word and seek God with our mind, heart, body and spirit. There are several different ways that we can partner both prayer and fasting together. Some examples include:

LIQUID FAST: Consuming only liquids for a specific period of time
PARTIAL FAST: Abstaining from specific kinds of food. For example Daniel Fast
TV/SOCIAL MEDIA: Choosing to abstain from certain technologies for a specific period of time

WHY WE PRAY

From the moment we give our lives to Jesus we are invited into the beauty of communicating with God, the very creator of all things in heaven and on earth. We can come to him in boldness lifting up our every word, need, and desire. Whether we find ourselves in the valley or rejoicing on the mountain top, God sees it all. Prayer is not our last resort, but our first response. There is nothing too grand or too insignificant to God. If you're worried, pray. If you're weary, pray. If you're wondering, pray. If you're waiting, pray. Seasons of life may change, but God always remains the same.

Surely the arm of the Lord is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear. — Isaiah 59:1
