Get ready for 21 days of breakthrough

Get ready for 21 days of breakthrough!

Get ready for 21 days of breakthrough fasting! We’re so glad you will be joining us for our annual 21 Day Breakthrough Fast. This year our theme is “Revival Now!” While we cannot force corporate revival in our churches, we can certainly prepare our own hearts for personal revival now. In fact, you can be a walking revival! Over these 21 days there will be countless moments to turn towards the reviving presence of Christ and away from the desires of the flesh and temptations of the world. Hebrews 12:29 says that "our God is a consuming fire." Let's allow Him to consume the unpurified parts and revive the spiritually dead parts of our lives.
 
As we begin our fast tomorrow, keep in mind that a spiritual fast comes in many forms, but ultimately a fast is for one primary purpose: growing more in love with Jesus, and becoming more like Jesus. When your spiritual hunger is greater than your physical hunger, it’s time to fast. When you are more eager for spiritual breakthrough than to fulfill selfish ambitions, it’s time to fast.

When churches and families agree to fast together it becomes a dynamic tool that they can use to break the power of darkness, set captives free, and release God's blessing on those we love. Isaiah 58:6 says, “Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke?" Fasting not only fills our spiritual appetite for more of God’s presence, it also releases a new level of spiritual, physical, mental, and emotional breakthrough in our lives. 

So prepare today for how you will fast (liquids only fast, giving up certain meals, etc.) and prayerfully begin writing down specific breakthroughs you will be seeking God for over these 21 days.
