GOD's People Are Called to Fast and Pray

2Ch 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Ezr 8:21 Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river of Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.

Ezr 8:22 For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way: because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God is upon all them for good that seek him; but his power and his wrath is against all them that forsake him.

Ezr 8:23 So we fasted and besought our God for this: and he was entreated of us.

2Ch 20:3 And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek the LORD, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.

2Ch 20:4 And Judah gathered themselves together, to ask help of the LORD: even out of all the cities of Judah they came to seek the LORD.

2Ch 20:18 And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the LORD, worshiping the LORD.

FASTING:

It is not an OPTION.

JESUS said, Times will come when we WILL fast.

Take Heart! It is NOT an hard thing!

Begin with fasting 1 meal only. 1 day only.

Then try 1 meal only ...every other day...

How about fasting 1 meal EVERY DAY?

Did you know you may fast from Midnight to Noon and that is fasting 1/2 the time?

Freedom Ministries Fast 6 MONTHS* each year.

HOW?!!

They fast every-other day. Half the churches fast one day, the other churches fast the next....so, each and every day, all their people are covered by prayers and fasting.

Oh, and they fast this way: water only, or TOTAL.

They also say: You must PRAY! Without prayer, you are just starving.
