How the Fast Works

There are no real rules to follow during a day of prayer and fasting, other than we pray, and don't eat!

We want to pray as much as possible. For some of you, this will not be a problem. For others, it may be more challenging. Don't worry. Simply begin praying by asking God to help you communicate with Him throughout the fast. Ask that the Holy Spirit would give you the words to speak to God.

If there are times you feel as if you should be praying, but don't know what to say, stop. Meditate on Jesus. The sacrifice He made for us all. Think about Adam. Think about his family. Listen for a prodding from the Holy Spirit. While your waiting, read your Bible.

We will all be going about this a bit differently. That's OK. To unite us, however, I will be posting this evening, beginning of day on Thursday, mid morning, lunch, mid afternoon, dinner, and evening. I will add another one or two on Friday morning. The intent being that we are coming together, at least virtually, to lift Adam up to God for healing.

I urge you to comment on these posts. Your comments do not have to be directly related to the post. Just share your thoughts and experiences with the rest of us. Share a scripture that is speaking to you. If you have something more than a short comment, email it to me, and I will post it as an article.

God bless you!
