Fasting Together
Jesus made it clear that we are not to draw attention to ourselves when we fast (Matthew 6:16). But there are times where in the Bible when the people of God are called to a corporate fast. Fasting and praying with others not only gives us an opportunity to encourage one another but is very powerful when done with others.
“And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” -Ecclesiastes 4:12 (KJV)
“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” -Matthew 18:20 (KJV)
As you go about your day, try to make God your focus. Set the tone by beginning your day with praise and worship. I have a Spotify playlist that we use for the prayer line, click here to access. Avoid TV, social media, drama, gossip, or any other distraction that’ll lessen your spiritual focus. Invite the Holy Spirit to lead and guide you during this time. Ask Him about what you should be reading and give your revelation on what He wants you to meditate on when it comes to God’s Word, as it is your spiritual food.
