- **Event Name**: Church-wide FAST
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 30 Mar, 2026 at 06:00 am – Sat, 04 Apr, 2026 at 06:00 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: During Daylight Hours - 6am to 6pm - Daniel Fast Food
During Night Time Hours - 6pm to 6am - No Food


Purpose:
Biblical fasting is a spiritual discipline in which believers voluntarily abstain from food for a period of time to seek God with greater focus, humility, and dependence. Throughout Scripture, fasting is associated with repentance (Joel 2:12), seeking guidance (Acts 13:2–3), expressing grief or crisis (Esther 4:16), and preparing for spiritual service, as seen in Jesus’ forty-day fast (Matthew 4:1–2). It is not intended as a mere ritual or a way to earn God’s favor but as an outward expression of an inward heart posture that longs for God above physical needs. The Bible also emphasizes that true fasting must be accompanied by righteousness, compassion, and obedience (Isaiah 58:6–7). When practiced sincerely and prayerfully, fasting deepens one’s relationship with God, sharpens spiritual sensitivity, and aligns the believer with God’s will.

Daniel Fast
The Daniel Fast is based on the prophet Daniel’s dietary practices described in the Bible, particularly in Daniel 1:8–16 and Daniel 10:2–3. In the first passage, Daniel and his companions refused the king’s rich food and wine, choosing instead a simple diet of vegetables (or “pulse”) and water in order to remain spiritually and physically pure according to God’s standards; after ten days, they appeared healthier than those who ate the royal food. In the later passage, Daniel undertook a 21-day period of mourning and spiritual seeking during which he ate no pleasant foods, meat, or wine. The Daniel Fast is therefore understood as a partial fast emphasizing simplicity, self-denial, and consecration rather than total abstinence from food. Its purpose is to deepen prayer, humility, repentance, and dependence on God while removing physical distractions, making it a popular model today for believers seeking spiritual renewal and clarity.
