Ready to hit the reset button on your soul and seek renewal from the inside out?
We are encouraging a season of spiritual focus and renewal as we begin a new year. Setting aside 21 days for prayer is a powerful way to start a new season and to seek revival in our hearts, intercede for the needs around us, and seek God for His wisdom in our lives. Fasting is an ancient practice that can sharpen our prayer focus and help us reorder the desires of our hearts to reflect the heart of God.
Fasting enables us to celebrate the goodness and mercy of God. It prepares our hearts for all the good things God desires to bring into our lives.
When deciding on a fast, we encourage you to seek God in prayer and follow what the Holy Spirit leads you to do.

Types of Fasts
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.
COMPLETE FAST
In this type of fast, you drink only liquids, typically water with light juices as an option. This is typically a longer fast (3 day, 7 day fast). We aren't recommending implementing a complete fast for 21 days, but you might want to engage in a complete fast at some point during the 21 days.
PARTIAL FAST
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. This could be implemented over the 21 days (skipping one meal each day for 21 days), or might be implemented on certain days each week over the 21 day time period.
SOUL FAST
This fast is a great option if you have health issues that prevent you from fasting food, or if you wish to refocus certain areas of your life that are out of balance.
For example, you might choose to stop using social media or watching television for the duration of the fast and then carefully bring that element back into your life in healthy doses at the conclusion of the fast.

The timing of your fast is not as important as
the strength of your focus on God as you fast.
Seek the Lord about how you might implement a type of fast to accompany you on this 21 day spiritual journey.
