Fasting is a sacred and time-tested spiritual discipline that draws us closer to God through focus and self-denial. In Matthew 17:21, Jesus reminds His disciples, “These things can only come through prayer and fasting.” In this critical moment for our church, our community, and our country, we must again seek the spiritual strength and divine wisdom that only God can provide.

 

Over the next twenty-one days, I invite you to join me for daily prayer at 7:00 AM, 12:00 PM, and 8:00 PM (Monday–Friday) as we center our hearts and encounter the presence of God. Each day, we will embrace a specific prayer theme, practice a purposeful act of kindness, and reflect on God’s power revealed in the life of Jesus through the Book of Matthew. Please choose your fast prayerfully and in consultation with your physician.

 

We will break our fast together in worship on Monday, November 24, 2025, and celebrate First Fruits Sunday on December 7, 2025, as we present our sacrificial offerings, over and above our tithes, believing God for the next in our lives. As we embark on this sacred journey, prepare your soul, mind, and body for a transformative encounter with God. Be intentional with your time by praying, writing, reading, reflecting, and watching how God moves in your life each day on The Fast Track.
