4 Types of Fasts:

• Full Fast (liquids only). You set the number of days according to what God leads you to do.
• The Daniel Fast - No meat, no sweets and no bread. Drink water and juice, eat fruits and vegetables.
• 3-Day Fast - This fast can be a Full Fast, Daniel Fast or give up at least one item of food.
• Partial Fast - Fast from 6:00 AM to 3:00 PM or from sun up to sundown. You can select from three types of fasting – a Full Fast, Daniel Fast or give up at least one item of food.

 

Prayer & Bible Reading Schedule for The Month – Our goal is to have 3 hours of intimacy with God each day!

• 1 hour prayer in morning (seeking His will for the day).
• 3 Minute Power Prayers of every hour during day as the Holy Spirit directs (James 5:16).
• 1 hour at night before bed (giving Him thanks).
