More on Fasting


It's Day #4 of our week-long fast. Here is a recent post from Drew, another worship leader, singer, guitar player and resident expert in fasting (he's done lots of it and living it gives your wisdom):


"Our HOP (sanctuaryhop.com) has joined IHOP for the 7 day fast that's happening this week.

The funny thing about that is that I had a longing to go on an extensive fast even before I heard IHOP or the HOP I'm involved with was going on one. Other people who come to our prayer room also had plans to go on a 7 day fast without even knowing anyone else would be doing one as well so its clear that the Spirit is moving through the bride to unite us during this week of fasting.

When going on a fast like this its very important to have corporate and personal goals set before oneself on how they want to focus during the fast. I'm not going to mention anything corporate for TVVT but I will tell you what I am doing personally to help me engage with the Spirit and go deep in the Word to seek after the Father.

I will be studying Jn 17:21 all week long. This is my personal life verse. It was given to me from the Lord in a dream and I received very specific revelation concerning my calling which is centered around this verse from the Lord. So for my own personal growth I will go studying and praying and singing this verse throughout the fast. I'd encourage all of you who want to join to do something similar. It will obviously look differently from what I'm doing but a personal focus for a fast is a great idea!

So be blessed! Seek Him! Find Him!!!"



Blessings!
