Every year for the past 20 years we as a church have set aside time for prayer and fasting. This time is an opportunity to step away from the noise of the world and draw closer to God. It’s about humbling ourselves, listening, and allowing space for God to work in us. People have shared amazing stories of personal breakthroughs, fresh inspiration, and strengthened faith. Through this, we lift up our needs and the needs of our world, trusting that God hears every prayer.

The Purpose Behind Our 14 Days of Prayer and Fasting

  • Seeking God’s Guidance: Asking for wisdom and direction for our lives.

  • Growing Stronger in Faith: Making God our first priority and building trust in Him.

  • Standing in Prayer for Others: Praying for our families, friends, communities, and beyond.

  • Personal Renewal: Creating space for peace, joy, and growth in our relationship with God.

Fasting Guide

Suggested Guidelines

  • A fast is the abstinence of food for the purpose of focusing more time on prayer and your relationship with God.

    • Fasting was an expected discipline in both the Old and New Testament eras. For example, Moses fasted at least two recorded 40-day periods. Jesus fasted 40 days and reminded His followers to fast - ‘WHEN you fast’, not IF you fast.

    • Fasting and prayer can restore the loss of the “first love” for your Lord and result in a more intimate relationship with Christ. (Joel 2:12)

    • Fasting can be a time when God gives you increased revelation from the word.

    • Fasting can transform your prayer life into a richer and more personal experience.

    • Fasting can result in a dynamic personal revival in your own life and make you a channel of revival to others.

    • Fasting can produce breakthroughs. (Matthew 6:18)

    • Fasting can be the catalyst by which God produces a new season in your life. [Acts 13:2)

    • Fasting can be a way by which God gives you clear direction on particular issues.

  • Ask for the guidance of the Holy Spirit

    Write down the things that you want to see happen

  • There are different types of fasts in the Bible. Just be open to God and ask Him what He wants you to sacrifice.

    Below are some examples of what you could do.

    Juice Fast
    In this type of fast you abstain from eating solids and only drink fluids such as water, juice and vegetable broth.

    Daniel Fast
    This is the diet that Daniel ate when he first went to Babylon, namely during a three-week period in which he abstained from delicacies, meat and wine (Daniel 10:31). A Daniel fast is therefore made up of basically water, fruit & vegetables.

    Obviously, due to health concerns, it is inappropriate for some to conduct a fast involving food. There are some other things that you could fast:

    Media Fast
    In this type of fast you abstain from media such as TV, movies etc., and you spend the time praying and seeking the Lord.

    Hobby Fast
    This is where you refrain from conducting a particular hobby and you choose to spend that time praying and seeking the Lord.

    Whatever fast or combination of fasts you choose remember that it is a sacrifice between you and God.

  • Prayer partners can encourage you when the going gets tough and support you in your prayer goals.

  • At the beginning of the 14 days surrender your life fully to Jesus Christ (confess your sins to God, forgive anyone who has offended you and ask forgiveness from those you have offended). Ask the Holy Spirit to help you and lead you.

    • Pray as often as you can - fasting without prayer is just a diet!

    • Read your Bible regularly.

    • Spend time alone in the presence of God, worshiping Him and opening your heart fully to Him. Keep a journal of the things God says to you, the prayer points He gives you and the answers He provides. Pray with faith and hope, knowing that God is able.

    • When you fast your body detoxifies, eliminating toxins from your system.

    • This can cause mild discomfort for the first few days (e.g. headaches, irritability during withdrawal from caffeine and sugars).

    • Limit your activity and exercise.

    • Take time to rest.
