Fasting and prayer are essential to receiving a clear vision of God’s specific path for our lives. Many times following a season of prayer and fasting we have a more defined understanding of the part that we play in the body of Christ and a greater sense of our particular spiritual giftings.

We hope that you will spend some time with God each day during the fast. During this time, take a moment to lift these items up as we join together in prayer.
Read amazing stories of people who are stepping out on faith and participating in our fast. As they are learning about themselves and their relationship with God, you will too.
Last night I was awakened by the Lord. I never even got out of my bed but I was brought into intense prayer and fellowship with Him. The next morning all my fears about the fast were gone and I was completely empowered. I went to the store and purchased everything needed to complete this amazing journey with the Lord. I made the Vegetarian Chili.. Love it!! Thanks for the recipes. I was in great need of a change.. I even like soy milk.. Tastes great!!
Last year a friend at the Grapevine campus introduced me to Fellowship Church online. I have been watching every week and have had the chance to visit the church in Miami and a half dozen times in Grapevine. Last year, I participated in the Daniel Fast with FC. Not only did it have some health benefits (I dropped about 10 lbs!) I saw God move in a big way in my life by opening up a new job opportunity and a deeper walk with Him. I also managed, for the first time in my christian walk, to read through the Bible in a year! Now, I am fasting with y'all again. I am asking God to open up the doors so that I can move back to DFW. I would love to be part of FC there. I need Him to move in a big way to make this possible, but I know with Him all things are! Thanks you for this "Awakening". I look forward to hear and read all that God does in the next 21 days!
Day 10 of the fast and i can say its been an amazing journey with the Lord.. In the last few days God has answered three of my unanswered prays. One being my husband and i are praying together! The very same night we got a call on the house we have been trying to buy for a year now, and the offer was agreed upon. And the most amazing of them all.. I received an email from my husbands ex wife, which we have not seen or heard from in 6 years, wrote me an email thanking me for loving and caring for her boys all these years. She thanked me for leading her to Christ and said she was active in church now.. WOW!! Noting more pleasing to my soul...My cup runeth over.. GOD IS SO GOOD!!
Thank you FC for bringing the Daniel Fast to my life. I have been focused on Jesus in a way I never have because of my commitment to the fast. I have always struggled to put God first and the fast has helped me to think of Him first, not only at meal time, but every minute of the day. Thank you FC for continuing to help me grow my relationship with Jesus Christ.
We would love to hear from you. Please share your fasting experience below.
