Daniel Fast
Fruits, vegetables, whole grains, water. No meat, no sweets, no bread. Daniel 10 — a fast for revelation and clarity.
Fasting & Consecration
Lions Fast Before They Roar
"Is this not the fast that I have chosen: to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, to let the oppressed go free?" — Isaiah 58:6. Our mandate scripture is a fasting scripture. Fasting here is never about going hungry; it is about getting free and setting others free.
Choose Your Fast
Types Of Fasts
Partial / Sunrise-to-Sunset
No food from morning until evening, then a simple meal. A steady, sustainable entry point for first-time fasters.
Liquid Fast
Water, broth and juice only. Best undertaken with accountability and, where health is a factor, medical guidance.
Media & Noise Fast
Surrender screens, feeds and entertainment to make room for the Word. Powerful for youth and for anyone who cannot fast food.
The Daily Rhythm
Four Times A Day
The Altar
Open the day in worship and read the assigned passage before anything else.
The Watch
Ten minutes of intercession for family, city and nations. Psalm 91.
The Report
Journal one thing God said and one thing He broke. Share it with your accountability partner.
The WarZone
Join the intercessors in prayer over the week's covering requests. Ephesians 3:10.
Before You Begin
How To Prepare
- Set the length and the type before you begin, and write down what you are fasting for.
- Taper heavy food, caffeine and sugar two or three days ahead so the first days are not wasted on withdrawal.
- Tell one person. A fast nobody knows about is a fast nobody helps you finish.
- If you are pregnant, nursing, diabetic, on medication, or in recovery, choose a partial or media fast and speak with your doctor first.
- Plan the breaking of the fast. Come back to normal eating slowly, with soup and fruit before anything heavy.
Fast With The House
Global Lions Ministries fasts together at the start of every year and again before each major outreach. Members receive the daily reading, the prayer focus and the closing celebration details.
Dates for the next corporate fast are announced at the Sunday gathering and sent to members. Join the family and you will be included.
