Fast 2023


From the desk of Bishop John W. Siggers Jr

 

Daniel's  Fast instructions. 


Monday January 9th  12:00 am thru Wednesday January 18th 12:00am

 

Welcome to 2023, and our Spiritual consecration, “The Fast of Strength, guidance and Empowerment”.

 

I am grateful for another opportunity for us to partner together in a time of prayer and fasting. 

 

We are seeking the Lord’s heart for the year of 2023 Through revelation by the Holy Spirit and for the confirmation of the Scriptures.  During this time of consecration, we are in great expectation for unity, alignment, and empowerment.   Therefore, let us posture our hearts and minds to one voice and one mind which is the mind of Christ.

 

The purpose of a time of consecration is to set apart a person, thing, or place as sacred or holy or to dedicate to a higher purpose. Historically, the Daniel Fast receives much of its attention, particularly for the eating patterns to which Daniel submitted himself. The first days for Daniel’s fast were ten days, and the second was twenty-one days. This understanding presents to us the understanding that the focus and primary purpose of Daniel’s time of fasting was not upon the amount of time given or its dietary allowances. Instead, the purpose of Daniel’s time of fasting include:

 

  •       Concentration
  •       Insight
  •       Favor
