FASTING 21 DAYS
FASTING HELPS:
For those of you starting the 21 day fast today, we will be posting Scriptures, prayer focus and thoughts for your journals every five days. These helps are alltaken from the “Jentezen Franklin fasting journal”. Praying for each of you as you empty yourself to be filled with Him. If you would like more information on fasting, please visit Jentezen’s website.
Day one:
I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation. 2 Corinthians 6:2.
**Today, pray for your unsaved friends and family. Make a “spiritual hit list”.
What are your personal reasons for fasting? Do you desire sensitivity to the things of God?
Day two:
Now may the God of peace who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you complete in every good work to do His will, working in you[a] what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen. Hebrews 13:20-21
**Today, pray for your Pastor. Ask God to give protection, restored joy, increased anointing on him, your church and even your own life. Write down specific prayer for your pastor and his family.
Do you need a deeper, more intimate, and more powerful relationship with the Lord?
Do you need a fresh encounter with God?
Day three:
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his ways. Psalm 37:23
** Today, pray for direction, guidance, dreams and visions. Never settle for less than God’s best in your life. (Hab, 2:2-3) What vision has God given you. Write it down and focus on it during the fast.
What is the Holy Spirit showing you about endurance?
What dreams are in your heart that only God can make possible?
Day four:
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. Ephesians 6:18
**Today, pray intercessory prayers for your family, city, and country.
Is there healing that you need physically?

Fasting prepares the way for God to give you fresh revelation, fresh vision and clear purpose
Day five:
But to you who fear My name the sun of righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings. Malachi 4:2
** Today, pray for health and healing. Pray to Jehovah-Rapha, the healing One. Pray for yourself, family or friends. Is there is sickness in your body or mind or the mind of a loved one, begin to speak forth health and healing in Jesus name.
Why do you think fasting is important in order to achieve your greatest breakthroughs?
