It seems like the church in the book of Acts lived in a lifestyle of prayer. They especially responded to any challenges or difficulties with intense prayer meetings and prayer focus.
Suzette and I have been planning to do a Daniel Fast Nov. 1 – 21. It’s just a personal thing. We are hungry for God to move powerfully in our lives, in our church and in our world. We mentioned it to our staff and they jumped all over it. I mentioned it in church Sunday and a bunch of people acted very interested in diving in as well.
We are actually planning to do a “proper” church wide Daniel Fast to kick off 2009. That fast will have a lot more effort put into involvement and information. More info will come on that.
With all that is going on in our country and in the world, this is not a day to shrink back and find a corner to hide in. It is a day to rise up live powerfully with the help of the Holy Spirit. I want to encourage any of you who are feeling “backed down” to listen to my message from Sunday and jump in on this fast with us.
Here are a few links to gather some info on a Daniel Fast:
